Those who get Qualifying Certificates shall be eligible for admission in higher classes.

The schools affiliated with the Board follow different practices suitable in their own context. They may continue to do so. However, in view of demand by a number of schools, illustrative guidelines for deciding combination of subjects at Class XI are given below:

The admission can be based on CGPA (overall indicative percentage of marks) and subject wise GP (subject wise indicative percentage of marks).

In case of tie in CGPA (overall indicative percentage of marks), the inter-se-merit of such candidates may be determined in order of preference based on subject wise Grade Point (subject wise indicative percentage of marks).

For example : In case of two or more candidates obtaining equal CGPA (overall indicative percentage of marks ), the  inter-se-merit  of such  candidates  may  be determined as follows :

(a) For Science based Courses :
Candidates obtaining higher CGPA (indicative percentage of marks) in one compulsory language (Better of  English/ Hindi), Mathematics and  Science.

(b) For Commerce based Courses with Mathematics :
Candidates obtaining higher CGPA (indicative percentage of marks) in one compulsory language (Better of English/ Hindi), Mathematics and  Science/ Social
Science.

(c) For Commerce based Courses without Mathematics :

Candidates obtaining higher CGPA (indicative percentage of marks) in one compulsory language (Better of English/ Hindi), Science and Social Science.

(d) For Humanities based Courses :
Candidates obtaining higher CGPA (indicative percentage of marks) in one compulsory language (Better of English/ Hindi), Social Science and 2nd Language.

The above example is only illustrative and not exhaustive.

Format of “Statement of Subject wise Performance”  issued to the candidates is available at www.cbse.nic.in

In this system, students’ performance has been assessed using conventional  numerical marking mode, and the same has been be converted into the grades on the basis of the pre-determined marks ranges.

Accordingly, the “Statement of Subject wise Performance” issued by the Board  for Class X 2010 examination  shall  have only grades.

The schools affiliated to the Board have also been directed to introduce the above Grading Scheme in the evaluation of their students in class IX under the scheme of Continuous Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) wef academic year 2009-10

1  Operational Modalities followed for implementation of grading scheme are :

1.1 A student’s performance has been assessed using conventional method of numerical marking.

1.2 The ‘Grades’ have been awarded to indicate the subject wise performance.

1.3 Subject wise Grades and Grade Point (GP) have been shown in the “Statement of Subject wise Performance” to be issued to all candidates.

The candidates have also been provided CGPA (Cumulative Grade Point Average) excluding additional 6th subject as per Scheme of Studies in the “Statement of Subject wise Performance”

An indicative equivalence of Grade Point and percentage of marks can be computed as follows:

Subject wise indicative percentage of marks =9.5x GP of the subject
Overall indicative percentage of marks         =9.5x CGPA

1.4 The practice of declaring Compartment/ Fail have been discontinued. The overall result in the “Statement of Subject wise Performance” have been shown as :

Result:    Eligible for Qualifying Certificate or Eligible for Improvement of Performance.

1.5 Those candidates who obtain the qualifying grades (minimum grade D) in all the subjects excluding 6th Additional subject as per Scheme of Studies shall be awarded a Qualifying Certificate.

Those who get Qualifying Certificates shall be eligible for admission in higher classes.

Those candidates who are not able to get minimum grades D in all the subjects excluding 6th Additional subject  as per Scheme of Studies shall not be permitted for admission in higher classes.

1.6 Those candidates who have obtained grade E1 or E2 in one or more subjects excluding 6th Additional subject as per Scheme of Studies shall have to  improve their performance  in these subjects. Such candidates shall have option for improvement of their performance through subsequent five attempts.

For example, a candidate who appeared in Board’s examination in March 2010 can appear for Improvement of Performance  in July 2010 (1st Chance), March 2011 (2nd
Chance), July 2011 (3rd Chance), March 2012 (4th Chance) and  July 2012 (5th Chance) only in subjects where he/she has got grade E1 or E2 till he/she gets grades (D and above) in all the subjects excluding 6th Additional subject as per Scheme of Studies and becomes eligible for award of Qualifying Certificate.

Those candidates who are eligible for 2nd / 3rd /4th /5th chance for Improvement of Performance shall appear as Private candidates only.

Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) is the average of Grade Points obtained in all the subjects (excluding 6th additional subject as per Scheme of subjects).

Based upon Grade point (GP) and Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA), indicates percentage of Marks can be computed as under.

Subject wise indicative percentage of marks =9.5xGP of the subject.

Overall indicative percentage of marks =9.5xCGPA.

The grades are provided as below:

1.    A1 –> for 91 to 100 marks ( grade point is 10)
2.    A2 –> for 81 to 90 marks  ( grade point is 9)
3.    B1 –> for 71 to 80 marks  ( grade point is 8 )
4.    B2 –> for 61 to 70 marks  ( grade point is 7)
5.    C1 –> for 51 to 60 marks  ( grade point is 6)
6.    C2 –> for 41 to 50 marks  ( grade point is 5)
7.    D –> for 33 to 40 marks  ( grade point is 4)
8.    E1 –> for 21 to 32 marks  ( no grade point)
9.    E2 –> for 00 to 20 marks  ( no grade point)

Individual grades and grade points will be given for each subject. Students will also get overall grade point for five subjects. This overall grade point is called CGPA (cumulative grade point average) and it can be used to calculate estimated overall percentage of marks obtained by the student.

Calculation of Percentage for one subject : Grade Point X 9.5

Example : suppose a student get B1 in Hindi and his grade point is 8. Now his estimated percentage in Hindi will be 8 X 9.5 = 76 percent.

Calculation of overall percentage : CGPA X 9.5

Example : suppose  CGPA (printed on grade sheet) is 7.8. Now his/her estimated overall percentage will be 7.8 X 9.5 = 74.1 percent.

Note : Abbreviations used against Result :

QUAL – Eligible for Qualifying Certificate,
EIOP – Eligible for Improvement of Performance,
NIOP – Not Eligible for Improvement of Performance,
XXXX – Upgradation of Performance/Additional Subject
N.E. – Not Eligible,
R.W. – Result Withheld,
R.L. – Result Later,
UFM – Unfair means,
SJD – Subjudice?

This Grade sheet clears that marks will not be displayed in this performance sheet. There will be only grades. Students will be awarded grade points for each subject and they will get a cumulative grade point average (CGPA) for all 5 subjects.

Students can obtain subject wise indicative percentage of marks by multiplying GP of the subject with 9.5. Overall indicative percentage of marks can be obtained by multiplying CGPA with 9.5.
