how to calculate class 12th marks based on new CBSE formula

Hello aspirant,

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) on Thursday, 17 June, released notice of how students would be marked for the board exams which could not be conducted due to the second wave of COVID-19 in this year. Since Class 12 Board exams could not be conducted this year, the CBSE has decided the following: for theory portion, students will be marked upon scores obtained by them in Class 10 Boards and exams conducted by the school in classes 11 and 12 and for marks of practicals, the actual marks will be considered which was scored by them in practicals or internal assessment for Class 12, as uploaded by schools.

If we consider theory portion in class 12 carries 70 marks, then 30 percent of 70 marks (21) will come from marks obtained by students in CBSE Class 10 board exams. This will include the theory components of best three performing subjects out of five main subjects, another 30 percent of 70 (21) marks will be upon marks scored by students in the theory of the final exam of Class 11. The remaining 40 percent of 70 marks (28) will be upon unit tests, mid-term exams, and pre-board exams held in Class 12.

The result committee of a school has been given the power to decide the weightage to be given to unit tests, mid-terms and pre-board theory examinations, depending on the correctness of the assessment.

Hope this helps,

All the Best!!
