CBSE Class 12 Result 2021: Unhappy with scores? Here's what you can do next

-

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) on Friday declared the CBSE Class 12 Board Results 2021. Students who were waiting for 12th results can check their scores by visiting the official website cbse.gov.in.

Not all students, however, seem to be happy with the assessment this year. So, what should students do if they are not satisfied with the results? Here are the options available to them.

If any candidate is unhappy with their Class 12 marks, they can apply again for the physical exams. The board will give another chance to Class 12 students to appear for physical examinations so that they can improve their scores. The board has not given any further information on this yet, but the dates and other details about re-exam of Class 12 will be available to the students soon.

In the meantime, candidates are advised to keep a check on the official site of the CBSE for any further related questions or updates, Hindustan Times reported.

Meanwhile, reports also suggest that the CBSE will conduct examinations separately for students between 16 August and 15 September. The board will also constitute a committee to look into this matter.

How were marks calculated as per the new scheme?

  • A 40 percent weightage was given to Class 12 internal marks (unit tests and assignments) conducted in this academic year.
  • A 30 percent weightage given to marks secured in theory papers in Class 11.
  • And finally, 30 percent marks were calculated based on an average of total marks in Class 10 exams keeping in mind the marks scored in the three best subjects out of the five main subjects.
  • The practical marks were calculated after being updated by the respective schools on the CBSE portal.

Amidst the pandemic this year, around 15 lakh students had registered themselves for Class 12 exams in the country. From the large number of students, 99.37 percent of over 14.30 lakh students cleared the exam.

Also, the number of candidates scoring marks above 95 percent increased from 38,686 last year to 70,004 this year.

Both COVID-19 vaccine doses needed for good protection against B16172 variant

-
It’s been a concerning few weeks in the UK, with the B16172 variant first taking hold and then spreading to become dominant. This more infectious form of the virus, initially identified in India, is what we’re now going to have to live with – unless it is out-competed by another variant in the future. Worryingly, experts had predicted that B16172 might be able to escape some of the effects of vaccines, which if true would threaten to derail the UK’s plans to finish lifting restrictions from the end of June. However, Public Health England (PHE) has looked at the ability of various variants to evade immunity and says that the UK’s vaccines remain effective against the variants circulating, including B16172. On the surface, this looks like good news. But delve a bit deeper, and things get more complicated, says Paul Hunter, professor of medicine at the University of East Anglia. PHE’s research found a little drop-off in protection against B16172 among people who were fully vaccinated.

New coronavirus variant emerge in India: How should our COVID response change?

-
Image
After genome sequencing of over 10,000 COVID-19 cases in India, researchers have discovered a new variant with two new mutations which may be better at evading the immune system. In 15-20 percent of samples from the Indian state of Maharashtra (the state accounting for 62 percent of cases in the country) a new, double mutation in key areas of the virus has been detected. These are now known as the E484Q and L452R mutations. What makes the variant different? Both these mutations are concerning because they are located in a key portion of the virus – the spike protein – that it uses to penetrate human cells. Spike proteins attach via a “receptor binding domain”, meaning the virus can attach to receptors in our cells. These new mutations include changes to the spike protein that make it a “better fit” for human cells. This means the virus can gain entry more easily and multiply faster. Given what we have seen with other similar mutations , it might also make it harder for our immu
