How to Calculate CBSE 10th, 12th Result Percentage?

To calculate the CBSE 10, 12th percentage, students will have to multiply their overall CGPA by 9.5. For example:

  • If the candidates’ grade points for all six subjects are: 9, 8, 9, 9, 7 and 5 (in case of class 12), then they will have to choose the best of the five subjects

  • Then, they must add the grade points: 9+8+9+9+7 = 42

  • Divide it by 5, i.e., 42/5 = 8.4

  • The CGPA of the best of 5 will be 8.4.

  • To convert it into a percentage, they must multiply the overall CGPA by 9.5 (8.4 x 9.5).

  • Hence, the overall CBSE percentage will be 79.80%.

Hello,

No, it’s not true that GSEB (Gujarat Board) students get first preference in college admissions.

Your daughter can continue with CBSE, as all recognized boards CBSE, ICSE, and State Boards (like GSEB) which are equally accepted for college admissions across India.

However, state quota seats in Gujarat colleges (like medical or engineering) may give slight preference to GSEB students for state-level counselling, not for all courses.

So, keep her in CBSE unless she plans to apply only under Gujarat state quota. For national-level exams like JEE or NEET, CBSE is equally valid and widely preferred.

Hope it helps.

Hello,

Since you have passed 10th and 12th from Delhi and your residency is Delhi, but your domicile is UP, here’s how NEET counselling works:

1. Counselling Eligibility: For UP NEET counselling, your UP domicile makes you eligible, regardless of where your schooling was. You can participate in UP state counselling according to your NEET rank.

2. Delhi Counselling: For Delhi state quota, usually 10th/12th + residency matters. Since your school and residency are in Delhi, you might also be eligible for Delhi state quota, but it depends on specific state rules.

So, having a Delhi Aadhaar will not automatically reject you in UP counselling as long as you have a UP domicile certificate.

Hope you understand.
