CBSE adopts on-screen marking for Class 12

In a significant development, the CBSE board has introduced on-screen marking (OSM) for checking the Class 12 board exam answer scripts. OSM system includes scanning and evaluating answer scripts on a secure digital platform, cbse.onmark.co.in, rather than physically evaluating the answer scripts.

CBSE OSM is a step forward, aiming for transparency in evaluation, faster result processing, and the elimination of clerical errors.
