CBSE Grade 12 results out: High marks, mixed emotions among UAE students; schools await tallying scores
Excitement and relief filled the air across homes and schools in the UAE today as the Class 12 board results were announced.
Many students are celebrating impressive scores, though schools are yet to receive their results.
The news of the result release spread quickly on Tuesday morning, prompting students to rush online to check their scores. However, a few students faced brief technical glitches while trying to log in.
This year's board exams wrapped up on March 18, and while the initial results are now available online, students are reminded that these are provisional.
Official mark sheets will be issued by respective schools and will be essential for university applications and other formal procedures.
Speaking to Khaleej Times, Pramod Mahajan Principal, Sharjah Indian School, said, 'Student wise, candidates have started receiving their results. They are logging onto Digilocker to get their results. However, schools haven't started receiving the results. Once we start getting the results we will start tabulating at our level.'
To pass the CBSE Class 10 and 12 exams, students need to score at least 33 per cent in each subject and overall. Those who narrowly miss the mark may still benefit from grace marks.
Students who do not meet the passing criteria in one or two subjects will have another opportunity; the board will conduct compartment exams in July 2025. The application process for these exams is expected to begin shortly.
Some schools who've received their results highlighted their outstanding pass rates.
Deepika Thapar Singh, Principal & CEO, Credence High School, Dubai said, "We are proud to share that Credence High School has once again achieved a 100 per cent pass result in the CBSE Grade 12 Board Examinations."
Our children have done well, and most importantly, they have done so with integrity, resilience, and a sense of purpose. These results are a reflection not just of academic achievement but of their journey as confident, compassionate, and future-ready individuals," she added.
