The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), on September 24, informed the Supreme Court that it will release the class 12 compartmental results by October 12 .

This comes after University Grants Commission announced that college admission for various undergraduate courses can be availed till October 31. It also released an alternate alternative academic calendar for high institutions in India.

The compartment examination for classes 10 and 12 began on September 22 at 1,268 centres across the country amid strict precautions in view of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The board has also given a chance to class 12 students to appear for the exam if they were unsatisfied with the marks awarded to them on the basis of an alternate assessment scheme after the exams were cancelled due to the spread of COVID-19.

However, class 10 students have not got any option to improve their performance.

Over 2.3 lakh candidates are appearing for the compartment exam this year. While class 10 students appeared for the Social Science exam, class 12 exams of multiple subjects were scheduled, including Political Sciences, Physics, Biology, History and Accountancy.
