Class 12 Results: Lowest Pass Rate Recorded In Five Years

| Updated: June 1, 2023 15:15

After an underwhelming performance by Class 10 students this year, Class 12 fared no better as evident in the general stream results. The pass percentage was an unremarkable 73.27%, the lowest since 2018 when only 68% of students cleared the exam, reported a national daily.

Statistics paint an unflattering picture. The number of students who achieved 80% or higher marks went down from 27,524 in 2022 to 22,955 along with the number of schools that achieved 100% results which dropped from 1,064 to 311 this year, the report added.

Education department officials have pointed out a rise in schools with pass rates below 10% in HSC general stream from just one school in 2022 to 44 this year. The number of schools recording a 0% pass rate in Class 12 increased from 121 in 2022 to 157 in 2023, indicating a poor rise of just about 29%.

However, experts have attributed the disappointing performances to the pandemic-induced lockdowns during which students suffered a great deal.

Not being part of an interactive system, where thoughts and ideas are exchanged, impeded their progress. The absence of a system where exemplary students shared their essays with others, as commonly practised in regular classes, contributed to this deficiency among Class 10 students this year,” an examiner told the daily.

“This year, the success rate for Class 12 science stream students stood at 65.58%, a drop of 6.64% compared to 2022. Class 10 results also experienced a slight decline of

approximately 0.56%. In comparison, the Class 12 general stream result was significantly lower by 13.64% compared to the previous year,” an official from the state education department was quoted as saying.

 “We noticed students struggled to write and lacked concentration. In mathematics, for example, Class 12 students demonstrated the ability to solve equations but often missed crucial steps. Additionally, many students could not complete their papers due to a lack of writing practice,” he added.

M K Raval, director (examination) of the Gujarat Secondary and Higher Secondary Education Board acknowledged that lack of preparedness for board examinations severely hurt their performances.
