Who Can Apply?
Students who appeared in the CBSE Class 12 Supplementary Examination 2026 and are dissatisfied with their results can apply for a scanned copy of their evaluated answer book. Only candidates who complete this step will be eligible to apply for verification of marks or re-evaluation, as per the prescribed process.
Why Is the Scanned Copy Important?
After receiving the scanned copy, students can review their evaluated answer script to check:
- Whether all answers have been evaluated.
- Whether marks have been awarded correctly.
- Whether there are any discrepancies before applying for further review.
This enables candidates to make an informed decision on whether to proceed with verification of marks or re-evaluation.
What Happens During Verification and Re-evaluation?
Verification of marks allows candidates to report discrepancies related to the calculation or posting of marks. Re-evaluation, on the other hand, is available only for the theory portion of the examination and is carried out for the entire question, not for individual parts of a question.
CBSE has clarified that marks awarded after verification or re-evaluation may increase, decrease, or remain unchanged. The result declared after the re-evaluation process will be final, and no further appeal or review will be entertained.
How to Apply
Candidates can submit their applications by following these steps:
- Visit the official CBSE website.
- Open the Supplementary Examination post-result services portal.
- Log in using the required credentials.
- Select the desired service and subject(s).
- Pay the applicable fee online.
- Submit the application and save the confirmation page for future reference.
Students are advised to complete the application within the notified schedule, as CBSE will not accept requests submitted after the deadline.
