The candidature of the Rawalpindi Board for the year 1999 to 2003 is given below.
It may be noted that the enrolment
for the year 2003 is 5418 (candidates more, than the year 1999).

the drop out in Rawalpindi Board in 1999 was 1.68%, 1.60% in 2000
1.66% 2001 1.42% in 2002, and 1.60% in 2003. It was maximum in
1999, i.e.1.68%. Its means that the improved examination policy
is the major factor to decrease the dropout tendency and increase
the enrolment of candidates for Rawalpindi Board. Comparison of the pass percentage of Intermediate Examination for the years, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2003 is as under. The Pass percentage for the year

2001, 2000,1999 and 2003. Private VS Regular Candidates The number of private students appeared in Intermediate Annual Examination 2002, 2001, 2000 and 1999 is higher than Regular Students for the same years.
