Compartmental Exams for Class 12

Shiv Lal, UP Board Additional Secretary stated in a media report, “The proposal is under consideration and will be implemented for the upcoming board exams. Students who fail in one or more subjects will get a second chance under this.”

This step is initiated to reduce the absentee number from UP Board inter exams. It is also expected that this initiative will help the additional 25.86 lakh students who have registered for UP 12th board exams.

Increased Re-evaluation Fee

UP Board 12th exams 2020 are scheduled to be held from February 18 to March 6, 2020 in two slots, morning and afternoon. The time table and model papers for the same is already uploaded on the board’s official website.
