Std XI students, who will wrap up their final examinations next month, are a much-worried lot. The summer training and coaching classes for state board's Std XII begins in April but they have no idea what to study, thanks to Balbharati which is yet to release the new curriculum.

Balbharati publishes textbooks and other study materials for the Maharashtra State Board (MSB). It is supposed to release the Std XII textbooks with a new syllabus. Although whenever the syllabus of any class is changed, the new textbooks are released by the end of June. However, the Higher Secondary Education (HSC) students are in a bind, as they need the new curriculum to prepare for Std XII in advance.
