The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) on Thursday submitted its evaluation criteria for awarding grades/marks for Class 12 exams before the Supreme Court. For classes 10 and 12, marks in the best of three from five papers in term exams will be considered.
For Class 12, the marks obtained in unit, term and practicals will be taken into account. The Class 12 results will be decided on the basis of performance in Class 10 (30 per cent weightage), Class 11 (30 per cent weightage) and Class 12 (40 per cent weightage).
Attorney General K.K. Venugopal told the Supreme Court that there might be a moderation committee to look into the difference in marking mechanism adopted by various schools to put all students as far as the awarding of final marks for class 12 is concerned.

He further submitted before the court that each school has to form a result committee to consider the marks of students obtained in the three examinations that would be vetted by the moderation committee of the CBSE.
The AG also said that students who are not satisfied with the marks/grading through the current mechanism can do better or improve their marks by appearing in physical examinations as COVID situation gets better or as the situation normalises or as the institutions think.
Venugopal said that the declaration of results will be done by July 31.
