Union Human Resource Development Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank on Wednesday tweeted that the results for class 10 CBSE board have been announced.
Around 18 lakh students had appeared for the CBSE Class 10th examinations this year.
The CBSE board followed the 'revised assessment scheme' for which the average marks of the best of three subjects will be taken, in case the student has already appeared for the exam. In case a student has appeared for only three papers, the assessment will be made on the basis of the best of two and for limited students who have appeared for only one or two exams, the marks obtained in the internal or practicals will be considered.
At least 33% of marks will be needed for the students to pass in a subject. For subjects with both practical and theory, the student needs to have passed in both sections.
Students who fail in one or two subjects will have a chance to give another attempt through supplementary exams. But the dates for the supplementary exams for CBSE Class 10th have not yet been announced by the board.
