PSEB slashes pass percentage for theory and practicals
It is no more necessary to score 33 percent marks in theory and practical examination each in any subject under the Punjab School Education Board (PSEB) system. The board has slashed the pass percentage for theory and practical examination for each subject from 33 percent to 20 percent, keeping the pass percentage in aggregate for theory and practical the same (33 per cent). Currently, this implement only to Classes V, VIII and X.
As per report, the state education department has claimed that the students will have to get more than 20 percent marks either in practical or theory of any subject to reach the total of 33 percent aggregate. It is also the main condition for passing in a subject.
In an aggregate mark, the numbers of Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) will also be added to score 33 percent. Meanwhile, the move is also a step close to CBSE passing marks criteria.
As per new norms issued by the PSEB, the students are required to get minimum 20 percent marks in each theory and practical marks, while aggregate of theory and practical must be 33 percent.
