Students who have repeated a class or taken a gap year remain eligible, provided they are currently enrolled in a recognised school in Classes 5 to 12 during the 2026–27 session. Students preparing independently without school enrollment are not eligible.
| Age Criterion | Status |
|---|---|

| Class repeater or gap year student | Eligible if currently enrolled in Classes 5–12 |

Academic Qualification Required for TALLENTEX 2027
Beyond class enrollment, TALLENTEX requires a minimum academic score in your previous class. This threshold ensures the exam attracts consistently high-performing school students across all boards and maintains the competitive standard of the talent search.
| Qualification Requirement | Details |
|---|---|
| Minimum Marks in Previous Class | 55% aggregate in annual or board examination |
| Boards Accepted | CBSE, ICSE, and all recognised state boards |
| School Enrollment Status | Must be a regular enrolled student in 2026–27 session |
| Allen Centre Enrollment | Not mandatory — open to all school students |
For Class 5 students appearing for the first time, Allen typically applies a relaxed or waived percentage criterion since no full-year board result exists. Check the official TALLENTEX 2027 notification for the exact rule applicable to first-time Class 5 registrations.
