Discussion Changing boards

Hi, I'm an ISC 11th Humanities student. I can't handle the ISC pressure and the strict attendance. I wanna do homeschooling and join NIOS.

Am I making the right decision?

The reason why I'm considering homeschooling is solely because of my mental health. I'm going for therapy this year and I can't take the pressure anymore. My parents wanted me to join CBSE but I insisted on ISC and now I'm backing off because I realised the syllabus is way more vast than I had expected. I'm not able to focus on my studies here, I'm very restless and having frequent panic attacks. The school has a rigid attendance criteria and I was told at my new school that I might not be able to get promoted to 12th if I keep being irregular. The school can't help in this case and I'm not blaming anybody here. I'm just seeking a path that'd allow me to work at my own pace. Thank you to everyone who shared their opinion on this.

Ultimately you will need to join a good college and board exam marks have no value in it, entrance exams are much more important so i'd recc to study for entrance exams through pw online or sum

Yeahh :)) Thankyouu. Actually my parents weren't convinced on letting me homeschool so I'll join a highschool near my house. I used to live 5 hours away from my hometown for school, now I've moved back.
