To pass the Odisha CHSE 12th exams, students must score:

  • 30% of full marks in theory exams, regardless of internal marks.

  • Overall minimum passing marks, including practical/internal assessment.

For example, in subjects like English, History, and Political Science, where the full marks for theory are 80, a student must score at least 24 marks in theory to pass. Even if a student scores well in internal assessments, failing to secure 24 out of 80 in theory will result in failing the subject.

Changing from the CBSE board to the Odisha CHSE in Class 12 is generally difficult and often not ideal due to differences in syllabi and examination structures. Most boards, including Odisha CHSE , do not recommend switching in the final year of schooling. It is crucial to consult both CBSE and Odisha CHSE authorities for specific policies, but making such a change earlier is advisable to prevent academic complications.

You most likely will still be considered for passing based on the information you provided.

The CHSE Odisha board requires a minimum of 33% marks in each subject (including theory and practical) and an overall aggregate of 33% to pass class 12 exams.Since your failure is in the optional subject, and assuming all other subjects meet the minimum marks (33%), you should be okay.

You need 33% marks in each subject (5 main subjects + 1 optional). If you have 33% or above in all your main subjects, even if you failed the optional subject, your overall aggregate should likely be above 33% (considering the marks of all 6 subjects).

However , to be absolutely certain, it's best to confirm this directly with the CHSE Odisha board or the college you are applying to.

I hope it helps!

Hello Aspirant,

Yes it is possible that examination of any particular subject of all the 3 streams can be conducted on the same day, this is because no candidate would be studying more than 1 stream at once so he/she can easily appear for subject of his/her stream.

See Council of Higher Secondary Education (CHSE), Odisha has not yet released the dates for class 12th examination neither that of practical nor of theory so at this point of time it is highly unpredictable when the exams will be conducted, another reason is that theory exams are expected to be commenced from March mid but till now no schedule has been released by Council of Higher Secondary Education (CHSE), Odisha. Usually practical exams are conducted prior to the theory examinations but same reason applied for practicals as well, no schedule has been released yet.


I hope this information helps you.

Good Luck!!
