End Note:
Mostly Schools enroll their students in a board operating in a particular vicinity. Perhaps you might not get to choose your board but it is always imperative to know what the differences are; although there may be very minute differences owing to cultural relevance. Since the compulsory subjects are the same throughout, optional subjects are more or less the same except for Punjab Board.
What you can do as a student; aiming to get a good result is to make a plan for the board exam and schedule it according to your requirements.
