CBSE Class 10, 12 exam revaluation 2025: Step-by-step guide to apply for recounting and verification
CBSE will soon open revaluation and reverification registration for Board results
The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is set to begin the registration process for re-evaluation and verification of marks for the 2025 Class 10 and 12 board examinations in the coming days. The application link will be made available on the official website — cbse.gov.in — once the portal goes live.
CBSE declared the Class 10 and 12 results on May 13, with Indian students in the UAE once again showcasing stellar academic performance. Following the announcement, the board has confirmed that students who are not satisfied with their results can apply for a range of post-result services, including:
Obtaining a scanned copy of their evaluated answer book
Verification of marks
Re-evaluation of specific answers
These services will be conducted entirely online and in accordance with a schedule to be announced in a separate official circular.
As per CBSE guidelines, students must first apply for a photocopy of their evaluated answer script to review the marking. After reviewing the scanned answer book, they can choose to proceed with either of the following options:
Verification of marks – to check for totaling errors or unmarked questions
Re-evaluation – to request a reassessment of specific answers by a different examiner
Students may choose to apply for either verification or re-evaluation — or both — but re-evaluation requests will only be accepted after they have obtained the scanned copy of their answer script. CBSE has stressed that this step-by-step process is designed to promote transparency and ensure accurate assessment.
The board has advised students to regularly check the official website for updates and to submit applications strictly within the prescribed timeline. A separate circular will be issued with detailed instructions and deadlines.
This revised system allows students greater clarity into their results by giving them access to evaluator comments and the marking scheme, thereby enhancing fairness and transparency in the evaluation process.
