The result portal is not responding this time. Students can check the result using their roll number, school number, centre number and admit card ID.

While CBSE is yet to give any updates on the toppers and the pass percentage, it should be noted that the Board had taken strict measures this time to curb malpractices and avoid exam paper leak.

The post-result counseling is expected to begin soon. CBSE conducts exam and result counseling, every year, in which teachers and experts address the queries of students and parents.
