Pune: State records two per cent jump in SSC supplementary exams passouts

Out of 1,42, 968 students who had appeared for the SSC supplementary exams in July-August 2015, 39,994 students passed, converting it into a pass percentage of 27.97 across the state-a two per cent increase as compared to last year’s 25.37 per cent.

In Pune division, out of 20,061 students who had appeared for the exams, 6,204 passed converting it into a pass percentage of 30.83, and thus making a jump of over four per cent compared to last year. The results were declared on Tuesday. The total number of students who got ATKT by failing to clear either one or two papers is 78,153.

This is the second year that the supplementary exams have taken place in July and the results declared by August, thus enabling students not to lose an academic year and instead apply for first year junior college admissions in the same year.

“Students who have cleared all subjects or have ATKT in one or two subjects qualify for FYJC admissions. They can download the online marksheet and self attest it to the online Centralised Admission Process. If they are applying in colleges outside, self attested copies will suffice as well. The deputy director concerned will announce the schedule of admissions based on vacant seats,” said Gangadhar Mhamane, chairman, MSBSHSE.

Meanwhile, students will be allowed to apply for verification of marks between August 31 and September 9. For photocopy of answer sheets, an application can be sent between August 31 and September 19. If students want revaluation of answer sheets, they can apply for the same along with fees within five days of receiving the photocopies,” said an MSBSHSE official.

Students who have failed the exams or applying for class improvement scheme will be allowed to appear for re-exams in March 2017 for which online applications will be accepted and the dates for the same will be announced later.
