Understanding the Passing Criteria
To successfully clear the PSEB Class 12 exams, students must adhere to the following requirements:
- Minimum Marks: A total aggregate of 33% is required to pass.
- Theory vs. Practical: For subjects with both components, students must pass both separately.
- Specifics: While the overall subject aggregate must be 33%, those scoring at least 20% in practicals and 33% in theory are generally deemed to have passed.
What to Do if You Didn’t Pass?
Don’t be discouraged if your results aren’t what you hoped for. The PSEB provides a second chance through supplementary (compartment) exams.
Students who fail in one or more subjects are eligible to sit for these exams. The board will announce the official supplementary exam dates and registration process shortly after the main result declaration. We recommend staying tuned to the official portal for updates.
Important Note on Marksheets
Please remember that the marksheet downloaded from the official website or DigiLocker is provisional and intended for immediate reference. To obtain your original hard copy marksheet, you must visit your respective school a few days after the announcement, as the board distributes them directly to educational institutions.
Congratulations to all the successful candidates! Your hard work and dedication have paid off.
