The results of the rescrutiny and re-evaluation of this year’s SSC and equivalent examinations were published on Thursday, with 4,585 students moving from fail to pass and 3,079 students achieving GPA-5 for the first time.
The results were published at 10am on the websites of all 11 education boards. Applicants were also notified by SMS on the mobile numbers they provided. Results are available through the designated rescrutiny portal.
The original SSC and equivalent results were published on August 10, while applications for rescrutiny closed on August 17. The results were released 31 days after the original results and 24 days after the application deadline.
A record 402,051 students applied for rescrutiny across the 11 education boards. As students could apply for multiple subjects, the total number of answer scripts submitted for review was much higher—1,287,926, including 1,056,455 written and 231,471 practical exam scripts.
This year, authorities introduced a change to the rescrutiny process. Besides checking for errors in mark calculations, the submitted answer scripts were also re-evaluated, according to the chairman of the Dhaka Education Board and president of the Bangladesh Inter-Education Board Coordination Committee.
The Dhaka Board received the highest number of applications, with 94,236 students seeking rescrutiny of 335,677 written and practical answer scripts.
The overall pass rate in this year’s SSC and equivalent examinations was 62.25%, the lowest in 19 years. The rescrutiny results were published following a record number of applications from students dissatisfied with their original results.
