Similar to “Improvement exams” available for intermediate students, 12th graders will be permitted to write the exams which were canceled. These optional exams will be available for any student who wishes to improve his/her scores. They will be held when the Centre believes the pandemic situation is conducive enough. Marks obtained after these exams by students who opt for them will be considered as the final results.
In an attempt to avoid mentioning the term “Fail”, the Central Board of Secondary Education issued such results as “Essential Repeat”. The same has been sent to students and declared on the website.
