The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is set to announce the Class 10 and Class 12 results for the academic session 2024–25 by mid-May. While several news reports have speculated dates, the board has not officially confirmed a release day. Students are advised to rely only on official channels for updates and not circulate unverified information.

CBSE Board Results 2025: Tentative Date

Based on previous years, the results are typically declared in the second week of May:

• 2024: May 13
• 2023: May 12
• 2022: July 22 (delayed due to pandemic backlog)

Given this trend, the results for 2025 are expected between May 12 and May 15, 2025. A CBSE official recently told Indian Express that the results would not be declared before May 5, confirming a mid-May release window.

CBSE Passing Criteria

For a student to pass the CBSE board exams:

Class 10:

• A minimum of 33% marks in each subject (combined theory and internal assessment) is required.

Class 12:

• A student must secure 33% marks in both theory and practical/internal assessments separately in all subjects.

Failing in one or more subjects will result in the option to apply for compartment exams.

Re-evaluation and Rechecking

If a student believes their marks do not reflect their performance, CBSE provides the following post-result options:

• Verification of Marks: Checking for calculation errors in the mark tally.
• Photocopy of Evaluated Answer Sheet: Available for subjects opted during the verification phase.
• Re-evaluation of Answers: For students who believe specific answers were incorrectly marked.

The application window for re-evaluation opens shortly after the result declaration. Students must apply within the specified deadline and pay the applicable fee per subject.

Compartment Exams 2025

Students who fail in one or two subjects can appear for compartment exams, usually held in July. A detailed schedule and application process will be released after the main results. Successful candidates in compartment exams receive a revised marksheet.
