ASSET test is much awaited by the students as they do not have to prepare for the same. They are happy to appear for the test. This is one test they fearlessly and readily face, guess because it is so non - judgmental. While we do take other tests, ASSET has been made compulsory in our school. For parents, to have such a brilliant report for every child with a clear understanding of what are your child’s skill areas, where is she outstanding and what areas does she needs help is something I think if we got as parents then we would be in a much better place today.

I have noticed an increasing enthusiasm of our students in ASSET’s All-India tests. We have received positive responses and appreciation for ASSET from students as well as teachers which have been published in our monthly journal Bosco Times. ASSET’s Everyday questions (AQAD) have been compiled up and are forming a kind of question bank on different subjects. Some of our teachers are using them usefully.
ASSET has also been a kind of foundation for our students in their preparation for external proficiency examinations. It guides and dictates them in specifications of the performance abilities desired in candidates to be selected for technical, medical and other courses of studies.

The questions were both interesting and challenging for the children as they had multiple choice questions - something that the children were doing for the first time. They were also the kind of questions that would help the children in the competitive exams in their future life.

We, at Sishu Griha, do not believe in formal examinations and ASSET as a mode of assessment is in line with our requirement. ASSET, as a diagnostic tool, brings out the true sense of assessment. We definitely don't look at it as a short term goal but as a long term goal for continuous assessment. ASSET has played a very important role in catering to skills such as logical thinking and analytical reasoning.
Children themselves have give a feedback saying it was great fun to tackle application based questions. The ICSE board recommends application based question and HOTS type questions. ASSET strengthens and consolidates on that, in paving the path towards answering such type of questions by students.

The ASSET Question-a-Day have engendered curiosity in the students and have led to active discussions in the corridors of the school. These questions have led to a lot of peer interaction which is a potent form of learning.

Principal, DLF School, Ghaziabad
Most of the parents thought the test was very well organized. They found the questions thought provoking and a barometer of the real understanding of the subject. Most importantly they were very happy with the ASSET score card which gave a detailed report on the child's strengths and weaknesses and measures to improve them.
