The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is all set to announce class 12 results today,  Saturday, May 26, with lakhs of students keeping their fingers crossed over the marks they may get in key subjects.

The marks in maths, physics and chemistry will decide the final ranking students may get for admission to several colleges in state CET exams.

Students can check the official website cbse.nic.in.

This year, Microsoft through its app SMS organiser will inform students, including those who are offline, about their results. The candidates just have to register with their roll number, school code and date of birth. Google has partnered with the Board for the CBSE exam results on its main  search page directly this year. CBSE Class 10 exam results usually follow in two or three days.

Otherwise, the CBSE Class 12 exam was marred with the paper leak in Economics that forced the board to reconduct the exam on April 25, though the results were not delayed due to this. Other boards and ICSE have already announced their results and several state entrance exams are awaiting the results of CBSE Class 12 marks to decide the ranking of the candidates in CETs. State CETs usually take into account 50% of Class 12 exam marks for the ranking. 

Other website like www.cbseresults.nic.in and www.results.nic.in will also have the results.

Students can follow these steps to get their results:

1) Log in to the website

2) Look out for the link: 'Class 10 Exam Results'

3) Enter the details required like the roll number

4) Click submit.

Students should not forget to take a printout of the result.

CBSE class 10 results dates have not been disclosed yet, however, according to reports, they should come out by the end of the month.

The class 12 examinations 2018 were held from March 5 to April 13, while class 10 exams were conducted between March 5 to April 4.
