Passing Criteria
To pass the CBSE Class 10 or 12 exams in 2025, you need:
- Minimum Marks: At least 33% marks in each subject (theory + practical + internal assessments) and overall. Subjects with practicals require 33% separately in both theory and practical.
- Grace Marks: If you’re 1–2 marks short, CBSE may award grace marks to help you pass.
What If You Don’t Pass?
- Scoring below 33% in one or two subjects? You can appear for supplementary exams in July 2025 (tentative: July 15–22), with results in August 2025.
- Failing more than two subjects means repeating the year. Stay tuned for CBSE’s compartment exam details post-results.
CBSE 9-Point Grading System
CBSE uses a 9-point grading system for Class 10 (scholastic subjects) and Class 12 (elective subjects), based on your rank among passed students, split into eight equal octiles (1/8th segments). Here’s how it works:
Grade | Description | Marks Range (Approx.) |
---|---|---|
A-1 | Top 1/8th of passed candidates | 91–100 (Grade Point: 10) |
A-2 | Next 1/8th of passed candidates | 81–90 (Grade Point: 9) |
B-1 | Next 1/8th of passed candidates | 71–80 (Grade Point: 8) |
B-2 | Next 1/8th of passed candidates | 61–70 (Grade Point: 7) |
C-1 | Next 1/8th of passed candidates | 51–60 (Grade Point: 6) |
C-2 | Next 1/8th of passed candidates | 41–50 (Grade Point: 5) |
D-1 | Next 1/8th of passed candidates | 33–40 (Grade Point: 4) |
D-2 | Next 1/8th of passed candidates | 21–32 (No Grade Point) |
E* | Essential Repeat (Fail) | Below 33 |
Key Notes:
- Grades are based on rank, not fixed marks. Ranges are approximate.
- E* means you’ll need a supplementary exam or to repeat the year.
- Class 10: Applies to all scholastic subjects. Co-scholastic areas (e.g., Art Education) use a 5-point scale (A–E).
- Class 12: Applies to elective subjects, but marks/percentages matter more for college admissions.
- Class 10’s CGPA is the average of grade points (4–10) in main subjects.
What’s New for 2025?
CBSE is keeping things student-friendly with these policies:
- No Toppers or Merit List: To reduce stress, CBSE won’t announce toppers or release a merit list, a practice since the COVID-19 pandemic.
- Verification & Re-evaluation: Unhappy with your marks? Apply in May/June 2025 for:
- Verification of Marks: ~INR 500 per subject (checks for errors).
- Photocopy of Answer Sheets: ~INR 700 per sheet.
- Re-evaluation: ~INR 100 per question, refundable if upheld. Results by late June 2025.
- Digital Marksheets: Access via DigiLocker or UMANG app. Schools will provide physical marksheets within 10–15 days.
- Future Reform: From 2025–26, Class 10 students can take board exams twice a year (February & April) to keep their best score.
- No Official Percentages: CBSE doesn’t declare percentages; colleges or employers calculate them, using the best five subjects if you took more.
