Students Who Missed UK Board Exams 2020 To be Marked On Average Marking Scheme

The Uttarakhand Board of Secondary Education (UBSE) announced that the students who couldn't appear in UK class 10 and class 12 boards 2020 due to staying in the containment zone or being home quarantined, will be marked on the basis of average marks.

As per reports, the UK board will give a chance to the students who somehow missed to attempt class 10 and class 12 board examinations, and will be conducting exams for them within a month after the declaration of UK board Results.

Earlier the UK Board said that remaining exams will not be conducted in the areas that fall under containment zones. 

UK class 10 and class 12 remaining examinations were conducted from June 20 to June 23, 2020.

As per the order issued by Secretary of school education UK, R Meenakshi Sundaram, the criteria for allotment of marks is as below:

UK Board Secretary, Neeta Tiwari said, "The students will be marked on the basis of average marks scored for the subjects that they have missed. Students will also be given an option to appear in the exams that they missed if they are not satisfied with the average marks allotted."

Adding to this she said, "The marks secured in the re-examination will be final and no changes will be allowed thereafter."

Neeta Tiwari also said that it is very rare that students appear in just one subject and they are mostly those who register to improve their academic profile.

She said in this regard, "Those appearing for only one subject are mostly working professionals who want to improve their academic profile. This will affect most of the students who have their careers ahead and a delay in results can impact that, hence we will be following the average based marking system for timely declaration of results."
