Among regions, Trivandrum saw the maximum students (97.67 per cent) pass, followed by Bengaluru with 97.05 per cent and Chennai with 96.17 per cent. In Delhi, 94.39 per cent of the students who appeared passed the exam.
The result for over 12 lakh (12,06,893) students is available at cbse.nic.in and cbseresults.nic.in. This is the first time that the result is being declared without the examinations being completed for all the subjects.
To calculate the results the board devised a formula to impute the marks of papers in which students did not appear. This involved calculating with an average of the best three papers of students who had written four papers, of the best two for students who had written only three, and used practical and project marks for students who had written less than two.
