This is because while the evaluation process was completed for class 12 or inter exams before the nation-wide lockdown was announced, that of class 10 is still to be completed. The BSEB inter exams concluded on February 13 and class 10 exams on February 17.  As the condition worsened in India, several teachers boycotted evaluation process.

As reported by the indianexpress.com, over 55,000 teachers backed out of the evaluation process demanding pay parity. The Bihar Education Department had also announced to suspend over 25,000 teachers for not evaluating answer sheets.

As per reports, nearly 60 per cent of the evaluation work has been completed and is expected to conclude within week if the work is resumed. Thus, the BSEB class 10 result can be expected by second week of April.

From this year onwards, Bihar Board had introduced major changes including subject pattern, increase in the number of additional subject and change in the passing formulae; thus the pass percentage is also expected to go up.

In order to pass the intermediate exam, a candidate must obtain 30 per cent of total marks in the theory portion of each subject and 40 per cent of total marks in practical of each subject. To achieve first division, a student has to score 300 marks while for the second division, it is 225.
