80 - 100	A1	10.0
60 - 79	A2	9.0
45 - 59	B1	8.0

To pass, a student must obtain a minimum of 33% in each subject separately in theory and practical exams.

Scrutiny and Re-evaluation Process

Students who are not satisfied with their scores can apply for 'Scrutiny' (re-checking). The board allows students to challenge the marking if they feel there is an error. The application for scrutiny must be submitted online within 20-25 days of the result declaration, along with a fee of approximately ₹500 per subject.

Compartment and Improvement Exams

For students who failed in one or two subjects, the UP Board offers Compartment/Improvement Exams. This is a vital opportunity for students to save their year.

• Improvement Exam: If you pass but want to improve your marks in one subject.
• Compartment Exam: If you failed in one subject. (Note: If you fail in more than 2 subjects, you are usually declared failed and must repeat the year).
• Application: Forms are usually available on the school login or board website in May.
