For students unsatisfied with their results, WBCHSE will release the details for Scrutiny application by tonight. The deadline to apply for scrutiny is July 31. WBCHSE has also said that they will provide students the option of writing the exams again if they are not satisfied with the results or want to improve their performance.
The WBCHSE Class 12 board examinations were scheduled to be held from March 12 to March 27, 2020. However, due to the coronavirus outbreak and the ensuing lockdown, three exams could not be conducted as per schedule. The scheduled exams were later cancelled in June.
