Minimum Passing Marks — What You Need to Pass
To be declared pass in HPBOSE Class 12, students must:
- Score at least 33% marks in each individual subject.
- Score at least 33% marks in aggregate across all subjects.
That is the minimum bar. If you missed it in one or two subjects, do not worry — there is still a path forward.
Failed or Not Satisfied? Here Is What to Do Next
Option 1: Apply for Re-evaluation or Rechecking
If you feel your answer sheet was not evaluated fairly, you can apply for re-evaluation or rechecking. Here are the key details:
| Process | Fee | Who Can Apply |
|---|---|---|
| Re-evaluation | ₹1,000 per subject | Students with minimum 20% in that subject |
| Re-inspection (Rechecking) | ₹800 per subject | All students |
Applications are submitted through your school, not directly. The deadline was June 5–6, 2025 for the main result. Re-evaluation results were expected in July 2025.
Option 2: Appear for the Supplementary (Compartment) Exam
Students placed in the compartment category got a second chance through the HPBOSE 12th Supplementary Exam 2025, held in June–July 2025. The supplementary result came out on August 31, 2025.
This is not a failure — it is a second attempt. Many successful people have taken the same route.
What After HPBOSE 12th Result? Next Steps
