**TL;DR:** 17M failed Class 11 CBSE twice. Parents refusing NIOS admission. Need help convincing them NIOS is legitimate.
**Full Story:**
- Failed Class 11 regular + compartment exams
- School says "repeat or leave"
- Severe bullying history makes regular school impossible
- Parents believe NIOS is "inferior" despite it being government-recognized
- They want me to repeat Class 11 (would be 19 by completion)
- I want to join NIOS Class 12 directly and work hard
**What I Need:**
Official documents proving NIOS recognition for higher education/NDA
Success stories of NIOS students
Ways to approach parents with evidence
Anyone who can talk to my mother and explain
