Which Is Better, Icse Or Igcse?


I study in 10th grade in a CISCE-affiliated school, but I don’t like the ICSE syllabuses for History/Civics, Geography, Environmental Education, Hindi and English grammar and literature, all of which are compulsory subjects.
BQs:
Which of the two(ICSE and IGCSE) has better curriculum and syllabuses?(according to you)
Do IGCSE schools in India give students admission to 10th grade or do I have to study 9th grade again if I want to study in an IGCSE school? I have already passed 9th grade in a CISCE-affiliated(ICSE) school(That school sucks). How much will studying in an IGCSE school cost? (in INR)
Or should I get home schooled in IGCSE’s 9th and 10th grade syllabuses? How much will homeschooling cost?
Can one complete IGCSE in just one year instead of two years if they want to?
Or should I study 10th grade ICSE in an alternative school? How much will studying in an alternative school cost?
Or should I study in the same school and give the ICSE exams?
Which is more exam-oriented, ICSE or IGCSE?

Should I Just Move On And Meet New People At My New School?


Hey guys so I just finished grade 9 and my counselor near the end of the year asked me to leave and go to alternative school because of drugs (he couldn’t prove it, but rumors had started up – I was recovering from heavy drug use and stuff so ya). The alternative school I’m going to has only 22 students, and like 2 teachers and a couple staff. I know a couple people at this school but they’ve both gotten into smoking crack and I have just gotten off meth and I don’t want to go down this path again but I used to be friends with these dudes, and they’re super chill and lots of shared interests and all that but I’m honestly scared I’ll get into harsh drugs again and I’m at the point where if people around me are doing it, I will probably do it because I’ll remember and crave. Like I know this is a really stupid question but I’m gonna be in a confined, small area with old friends who do crack…And btw the last couple months I got into a lot of arguements with my other friends so like IDK what to do. I probably won’t be talking to anyone from my old school. Also at this particular school there are either gang affiliated (they come from a ghetto like part of town, they’re friends with gangsters) or these old crackhead friends. Any advice on dealing with these guys? Before they got kicked out of my old school they often crashed at my house because they were kicked out, and this one guy liked me and I’ve always liked him but if I go out with him it’ll get worse even more.
How do I deal with next year? I’ve just recieved the acceptance into the school and it IS the answer for my schooling and I am for sure going, I just need a bit of advice. Thanks.
PS. No need, to tell me to report them to smoking crack trust me it’s fine, I’ve known these guys for a while and it’s sort of a “drug/rock n roll community” that I’m included but don’t want to land face first into the gutter again…
