Students who could not pass class 10 will have one more chance. Students can take 2023 final year exams and those of that year under the repeater category. However, if students fail to pass that year too, there will not be any further chances. In 2023, CISCE will go back to the annual final exams.
The Council has also made provision for the candidates to apply for recheck directly through its website www.cisce.org.
A rechecking fee of Rs 1000 per paper will be applicable. The rescheduling will only be allowed for semester two exams this time as for semester one exams; the facility was provided earlier. The rechecking will be available from July 17 to July 23.
The students who did not appear for either semester one or two examinations will be marked absent. CISCE will not declare their results.
