CBSE 12th Evaluation Criteria Released; Results To Be Announced By July 31

Students of CBSE Class 12 will have their results based on their performance in the Classes 10 and 11 final exams and Class 12 pre-board exams.

Students of Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) Class 12 will have their results based on their performance in the Classes 10 and 11 final exams and Class 12 pre-board exams. The 12-member committee constituted by CBSE recommended a 30:30:40 formula—30 per cent weightage will be given to Class 10 and 11 final results respectively, and 40 per cent to Class 12 pre-board exams. Practicals will be for 100 marks and the students will be marked based on the marks submitted by the schools. CBSE will declare the results of Class 12 by July 31. The board today submitted the Class 12 marking formula to the Supreme Court today. Last month, parents had filed a petition in the Supreme Court seeking cancellation of CBSE Class 12 exams amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Schools that could not conduct their practicals have been directed to hold online practical tests and oral examinations. The internal assessment marks of Class 12 have to be uploaded on the CBSE system by June 28. The Court had asked CBSE and the Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations (CISCE) on June 3 to submit their assessment plans within two weeks. The Court had then said that a longer duration to devise the evaluation criteria cannot be granted as lakhs of students across the country are waiting for it. The top court had said that it will go through the objective parameters submitted by the Boards so that if anyone has objections they can be dealt with.
