Recognition of Toppers
The objective of ASSET is to give accurate feedback to every student and school about the areas of strength and weakness and thus help them do even better. This is why every student participating in ASSET is awarded a certificate.
However, ASSET tests are taken by thousands of students across the country, and doing well in the ASSET test is a creditable achievement. To recognize this achievement and inspire students to aspire for academic excellence, top-performing students receive awards. Overall toppers (based on performance in the Core Subjects - English, Maths and Science) as well as individual subject toppers (based on performance in the core subjects as well as the optional subjects Hindi and Social Studies) receive awards as mentioned below.

*We have a policy guideline of certificates whereby students’ participation for certificates is judged on the basis of three subjects. So if a student take only one or two subjects his/her performance is compared to a student taking 3 subjects when deciding the overall certificate for the student.
For example if a student participated in Maths only and got 38/40 s/he will be checked
a. if she is in the top 1% of students of Maths and if she is then she will be given a subject outstanding certificate
b. if she is in the top 10% of students who have participated for all three subjects.
Given that his/her one subject performance will be compared with students who participate in all three subjects there is a almost zero probability that the student will get anything but a participating certificated if she is not in the top 1% for her subject.
We had a case when a student got 38/40 in Maths but got a participating certificate whereas another student from the same class - same school got lesser numbers in maths but participated in all subjects and got Creditable performance.
To address this we have increased the percentage of students getting subject outstanding certificates from 1% to 3%.
All awards will be given at the sole discretion of Educational Initiatives. Students who have not taken the test on the recommended date may be ineligible to receive the awards.
