Mangaluru: The Learning Centre (TLC) PU College, a unit of CFAL, has once again proven its academic excellence by achieving outstanding results in the II PUC Board Exams 2025. The college secured a 100% pass rate, with an impressive 67.6% of students achieving distinction, further strengthening its reputation as a leading institution for science education and competitive exam preparation in Karnataka.

Exceptional Achievements in Core Science Subjects

The 2025 II PUC results are particularly significant for students aspiring to crack the Karnataka Common Entrance Test (KCET), as success in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics (PCM) directly influences KCET performance. TLC has reported that 67.1% of its students achieved distinction specifically in PCM, highlighting their strong grasp of key subjects essential for engineering and other STEM-related careers.

Such a solid performance in PCM subjects demonstrates the college’s effective academic strategy that not only prepares students for board exams but also gears them up for competitive entrances. These results reaffirm TLC’s commitment to nurturing a culture of excellence in both academic and competitive fields.

Importance of Board Results for KCET Rankings

While scoring well in II PUC exams greatly benefits students’ KCET prospects, TLC emphasises that board and entrance exams differ significantly in nature and expectations.
The KCET ranking is influenced by both the board exam scores and performance in the entrance test. However, being in the 90th percentile in board exams does not guarantee a similar percentile in KCET due to the highly competitive nature of the entrance.

TLC highlights that understanding this distinction is crucial. Over the years, it has been observed that some students who perform exceptionally well in board exams may not mirror the same success in KCET, JEE, or NEET, unless they adopt a focused and balanced preparation strategy aimed specifically at competitive assessments.

Balanced Preparation Approach at TLC and CFAL

Recognising this gap, TLC and CFAL have developed an academic environment where students are encouraged to simultaneously prepare for board exams and competitive tests.
Their curriculum stresses not just rote learning for exams but emphasises conceptual clarity, critical thinking, and problem-solving abilities — key components needed for success in competitive STEM exams.

This holistic method ensures that students don’t just achieve high percentages but also understand fundamental concepts deeply enough to tackle application-based questions in entrance exams confidently.

Leadership on the Institution’s Educational Vision

Speaking about the recent achievements, the CFAL Program Coordinator shared:

“It’s always heartening to see our students shine in their board exams, especially in PCM subjects. At The Learning Centre PU College, we believe these results are an important milestone in their KCET journey. Our integrated approach not only ensures academic excellence but equips students with the aptitude needed for competitive success.”

The Principal of The Learning Centre PU College echoed similar sentiments:

“We are incredibly proud of our students’ performance. Their strong showing in PCM subjects is an indicator of their readiness for future challenges. At TLC, we emphasise a holistic understanding of the subjects, ensuring that students can successfully balance both the board and entrance exams.”
