    NIOS Improvement Exam 2025 Result Out: Check Class 12 Result and Scorecard

    Garima SihagUpdated on 17 Jun 2025, 11:55 AM IST

    The National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS) announced the Class 12 results for its April–May 2025 public exams on June 16, 2025. The board will soon announce the NIOS 10th result for April session. Many students who are not satisfied with their performance may consider improving their scores by retaking exams. NIOS improvement exams are not conducted in separate exams; instead, students can either appear in the regular October–November session or opt for the On‑Demand Exam (ODE), which allows them to take exams at their convenience .

    Students can reappear for both theory and practical exams in subjects they wish to improve. However, TMA (Tutor-Marked Assignment) marks are not eligible for improvement. They may retain your previous TMA scores in any case. If students are aiming to improve their performance in a practical subject, they must reappear for both the practical and theory exams; simply improving one component is not sufficient.
