Examination methodology
In 2022, FBISE Changed its examination system from textbook based to conceptual learning or SLOs based. The student can learn the specified topic from anywhere (including internet). The student is not restricted to a particular/specified book or source. He or she can learn the topic from anywhere. Memorizing system was discontinued and from 2022 and onwards examination system were based on SLOs. FBISE conducted the first SLOs based examinations in 2022. SLOs based model question papers along with their solutions were also uploaded on the official FBISE website before examination. As FBISE Changed the examination system between the academic year, students also protested against this. However, SLO based examination system decision was not taken back by FBISE.
