How to Check Your CBSE Result?
CBSE has made it very easy for students to check their results.
You can visit any of these official websites:
In case these sites are slow, CBSE has also provided mirror links to make it easier for everyone to access their results.
You can also check your marksheet through DigiLocker. Just go to digilocker.gov.in or download the DigiLocker app. On the homepage, select ‘CBSE Class XII’ or ‘CBSE Class X’ and enter your roll number and your mother’s name (as per your admit card). Your digital marksheet will be available there, and yes, it’s official and valid for college admissions.
If you don’t have internet or if the websites are not working, Class 10 students can even check their result via SMS. Just type:
CBSE10 <Roll Number> <School Number> <Centre Number>
and send it to 7738299899. You’ll get your result as a message once it’s out.
What You Need Before Checking the Result
Make sure you have your roll number, school code, admit card ID, and date of birth ready. Always use the official CBSE sites or DigiLocker. Stay away from fake or unknown websites.
To pass the board exams, students need to score at least 33% in both theory and practical exams. CBSE may give grace marks if someone is just a few marks short. And if you’ve got a compartment, don’t worry, you’ll get another chance to clear the subject.
This year, Class 10 exams ended on March 18, and Class 12 exams were completed by April 4. Class 12 results are already out, and Class 10 results will be live today by 1 PM.
So, best of luck to all Class 10 students! Just remember, no matter what your marks are, they don’t define your future. Stay positive and be proud of your hard work.
