What’s the Update?

Following the declaration of the bihar School Examination Board (BSEB) Class 12 (Intermediate) results 2026 on 23 March 2026, the Board has officially opened the application process for scrutiny (re‑evaluation) and compartment exams for students who are dissatisfied with their marks or have failed in one or two subjects.

Why Are Scrutiny and Compartment Exams Important?

🔍 Scrutiny (Re‑Evaluation)

  • Scrutiny allows students to request a re‑checking or re‑evaluation of their answer sheets if they feel marks were under‑awarded or mistakes were made during marking.
  • This process ensures that all answers have been correctly assessed.
📘 Compartment Exams

  • Compartment exams give students who failed in one or two subjects another chance to pass those subjects without repeating the entire academic year.
  • This helps students move forward with their academic or career plans on time.
Application Dates and Deadline

  • The **scrutiny and compartment application window opened on 25 March 2026.
  • Students have a limited period to submit their forms online through the official BSEB portal before the deadline (typically a few days after opening).
Tip: It’s crucial for students to apply before the last date, as late applications may not be accepted.

How to Apply Online

Students must apply through the bihar Board’s dedicated online platform (such as biharboardonline.bihar.gov.in or interbiharboard.com), using details like:

  • Roll number
  • Registration number
  • Stream information
  • Subjects to be re‑checked or re‑appeared in the compartment exam

Who Should Apply?
