Detailed Passing Criteria for JKBOSE Class 12

The JKBOSE Class 12 passing criteria are targeted to evaluate students' comprehensive understanding across both theory and practical components. Below is a detailed explanation of these criteria:

1. General English Passing Marks

• Students must secure a minimum of 33% marks in the General English subject to pass.

2. Elective Subjects Passing Marks

• For each of the four elective subjects, the minimum percentage of passing marks is 36%.

• Students must ensure they achieve 36% marks in every elective subject to meet the passing criteria.

3. Subjects with Practical Components

In subjects that include practical examinations, students must meet the following conditions:

• Theory Passing Marks: A minimum of 36% is required in the theory component.
• Practical Passing Marks: A minimum of 36% is required in the practical examination, which includes both the practical test and internal assessment.
• Aggregate Passing Marks: Students must also achieve 36% in the combined total of theory and practical marks.

4. Importance of Internal Assessment

The internal assessment is an important aspect of practical subjects and must meet the passing criteria independently. Failing to achieve 36% in either the practical test or internal assessment will result in failing the subject.

Notional Marks Provision in JKBOSE

JKBOSE provides a notional marks concession to help candidates who narrowly miss passing criteria in theory exams. The details are as follows:

• Candidates failing in one or more subjects by a margin of up to 5 marks can receive the required marks to pass.

• These marks are not added to the subject marks or the total aggregate but are granted solely to help the candidate pass the exam.

• The notional marks do not apply to practical examinations, including internal assessments and external practical tests.

Note: The notional marks may be considered similar to grace marks.
