NEW DELHI: The Andhra Pradesh State Board of Higher Education has decided to remove 25% weightage of intermediate marks in AP EAPCET 2021, according to a News18 report. Now, 100% weightage will be given to the marks secured by candidates in AP EAPCET 2021 in order to prepare the ranking of candidates. Usually, a weightage of 75% marks in AP EAMCET and 25% marks in intermediate is given to rank students.

The decision was taken by the board to provide a fair chance to students as this year the evaluation process of Class 12 is based on a normalization method due to the cancellation of exams.
