This year, AHSEC did not conduct HS first and final year exams due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The results were declared using an alternative assessment scheme.
While cancelling the exams, the state government said students will be given an option to appear for the special exam, when the Covid situation improves.
Students who are not happy with their HS final result and want to improve scores can take the special exam.
