FMM: Curriculum and Course Structure

FMM

The CBSE has reviewed the curriculum and course structure of FMM. Based on the feedback received from the schools who have implemented FMM course, and on the basis of the opinion of teachers and students, and as per the recommendations of the course committee, the following, changes have been made by the Board w.e.f. the academic session 2010-2011.

• The existing three vocational packages will be reduced to two vocational packages by replacing “Accounting for Business I & II by regular commerce subject i.e academic elective, Accountancy (code-055) since most of the syllabus is common in those subjects. This step will further make the admission procedure easier in to undergraduate courses in various universities with combination of Accountancy as an elective subject.
• The Board used to send the question paper of class XI only in three vocational subjects of FMM in order to standardize and to ensure the uniformity among the schools opting FMM stream. But the existing policy of conducting class XI FMM annual Examination will be discontinued from the academic Session -2010 and hence forth, the schools opting the FMM course shall conduct the XI annual examination internally as the teachers are well trained by now.

The revised scheme of studies in Financial market management (FMM) for class XI and XII with effect from 2010-11 is given below and is applicable to all the schools offering the same course in the current academic session.
