This year, the WBCHSE Class 12th results have been declared without conducting the board exams on the basis of an alternative evaluation method.
The Class 12 WBCHSE students have been marked on the basis of the 40:60 formula. While 40 per cent weightage has been given to the best of four subjects in the Class 10 Madhyamik exam in 2019, the 60 per cent weightage has been provided to the annual Class 11 theory exam held in 2020 plus Class 12 practicals or projects, for Science and Arts respectively. For the WBCHSE Class 11 and Class 12, Science students take exams for 70 marks in theory papers and 30 for practicals. For Humanities, the break up is 80 marks for theory and 20 for projects.
Students will also get the opportunity to appear for a written exam in the future when the situation is conducive to hold the exams in offline mode and the result of that exam will be considered final, an official statement said while announcing the evaluation criteria.
