Ranchi, July 17: The Council for Indian School Certificate Examinations (CISCE) has announced the ICSE or class 10th result on Sunday. This is the final result announced by CISCE which includes both term 1, term 2 scores as well as marks obtained by students in internal assessment. The final marksheets of ICSE or class 10 students will be available at cisce.org and results.cisce.org.
To pass the two-term exams, students had to clear the exams combined. This means, the pass or fail status is declared based on the final score and not term-wise. To pass, students need 33 per cent marks overall. Last year, all students have cleared the ICSE, that is, a pass percentage of 100 per cent was recorded while 99.93 per cent of the students who registered for ISC managed to pass the exam.
After achieving the highest-ever pass percentage of 100 per cent last year. It is likely that the ICSE’s pass percentage could see a drop this year. Last year’s students were promoted without exams and this year, the exams have been held twice and both in different exam patterns.
