Several Std XII students were left shocked by their CBSE board results, prompting many to apply for re-evaluation. The board extended the re-evaluation deadline from May 19 to May 24 due to “unprecedented traffic” and “unauthorised interference” on the website.

This year, CBSE evaluated Std XII papers through the On-Screen Marking (OSM) system, where scanned answer sheets were uploaded digitally for checking. While teachers marked papers in the usual way, the software handled mark tallying.
