Getting your board exam results can be really upsetting. If you think your hard work is not showing in your CBSE Class 12 scorecard this year you should not get too sad. CBSE Class 12 has said it is starting its Post-Result Declaration Facilities for the 2025–26 session. This year CBSE Class 12 looked at all Class 12 papers on a computer using a system called On-Screen Marking to stop mistakes when adding up the scores.

However if you still think something is wrong CBSE Class 12 gives you the right to look at your answer sheet and say something is wrong, from your home. You can look at your answer sheet and challenge the evaluation of your CBSE Class 12 scorecard.

CBSE Class 12 Re-Evaluation 2026: Important Rules to Apply

Before logging into the CBSE portal, make sure you understand these critical guidelines to avoid risking your current scores:

  • You must pply for a scanned copy of your answer sheet in Stage 1 to be eligible for Stage 2 re-evaluation later. You cannot skip directly to challenging a question.
  • You can apply for multiple subjects, but you must select all of them and make the payment in a single application. Once you submit the form, you cannot log back in to add another subject.
  • Be 100% sure about your answers. If the examiner reviews your sheet and decides your marks should be lower, even a decrease of one mark will be made final, and your old scorecard will be cancelled.
  • All payments must be made online via Credit Card, Debit Card, or Net Banking. Drafts, cheques, or cash sent to the CBSE office will be automatically rejected.

How to Check Your CBSE Scanned Answer Sheet

Once you pay the ₹700 fee and download your digital answer script from your official candidate login, follow the simple steps mentioned below: 

  1. Check the registration details, roll number, and handwriting on the scanned script are completely yours.
  2. Check if all written pages, supplementary sheets, or graphs you have attached are clearly visible and haven't been skipped during scanning.
  3. From the CBSE website and download the official Question Paper Set and Marking Scheme (Answer Key) corresponding to your paper code.
  4. Compare your answers directly against the marking scheme points. If your required criteria was marked zero or lower, note down the question number and note down a clear, logical reason to present for the Stage 2 process
