The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is set to release the much-anticipated Class 10 and Class 12 results for the academic session 2024-25, with expectations building among students and parents alike. Based on historical data, the results are likely to be announced around mid-May 2025, specifically by May 2, 2025, as suggested by various media reports.
This year, over 42 lakh students from both classes took the board examinations, which were conducted from February 15 to April 4, 2025. The CBSE Class 10 exams concluded on March 18, while the Class 12 exams wrapped up on April 4. As students await their results, the stress and anxiety surrounding the outcome are palpable.
Students looking for their results can access them through the official CBSE websites: cbseresults.nic.in, results.cbse.nic.in, and cbse.gov.in. Additionally, results will also be available via the DigiLocker and UMANG mobile applications, making it easier for students to obtain their scorecards.
To check their results online, students should follow these steps:
- Visit the official website, either cbse.gov.in, cbseresults.nic.in, or results.cbse.nic.in.

- Enter the required information, including roll number, date of birth, and security code.

In addition to online access, students can also check their results via SMS. Those who prefer this method can send an SMS with the text "CBSE10" for Class 10 results or "CBSE12" for Class 12 results to the number 7738299899.
The pressure of waiting for results can be overwhelming. Many students have taken to social media to express their anxieties, with some even seeking advice on how to cope with the stress. Experts suggest that students should keep their expectations realistic based on their performance in mock tests and pre-board exams. Understanding that the results are significant for their future, yet do not define their entire lives, can help alleviate some of the anxiety.
To manage stress effectively, students are encouraged to maintain a regular routine, ensuring they get enough sleep, engage in light exercise, and allocate time for hobbies. Techniques such as deep breathing, mindfulness, and journaling can also be beneficial in keeping stress levels down.
Parents play a critical role during this anxious time. Open communication with children about their feelings and providing emotional support can help mitigate stress. Parents should avoid putting excessive pressure on their children and instead focus on celebrating their efforts.
As students await the results, they should also consider planning for their future academic paths. Researching potential courses or career options can provide a constructive distraction from the waiting game.
The CBSE has also announced that students who are dissatisfied with their results will have the opportunity to request rechecking and reevaluation. Mark verification will take place between May 20 and May 24, 2025, with a fee of ₹500 per subject. Applications for revaluation will begin on June 6, 2025, costing ₹100 per subject. The results for rechecking and reevaluation are expected to be released on June 27, 2025.
With the passing percentage for Class 10 in 2024 recorded at 93.60% and Class 12 at 87.98%, students are hopeful for favorable outcomes. Last year, the Class 12 results were declared on May 12, and Class 10 results followed on May 15. In 2023, the trends continued similarly, with results announced in May.
As the countdown to the results continues, students and parents are advised to keep an eye on official sources for updates and to avoid the pitfalls of misinformation that can circulate on social media.
Ultimately, while the results will indeed have implications for students' futures, it is important to remember that they are just one part of a larger journey. The skills and knowledge gained during their education will serve them well beyond the confines of a single examination.
