Passing Criteria and Compartmental Exams

To pass the Bihar Board exams, a student must secure a minimum of 33% marks in each subject. This includes both the theory and practical components for subjects that require them.

Students who fail to meet the passing criteria in one or two subjects will be eligible to appear for the Compartmental Exams, which are typically conducted in April or May. The board also provides a "Scrutiny" option for students who are dissatisfied with their scores and wish to apply for a re-evaluation of their answer sheets. SGBAU Result 2026 for Various UG and PG Semester Examinations Released at sgbau.ucanapply.com.

Topper Verification and Merit List

The "Topper Verification" process is a distinctive feature of the Bihar Board’s evaluation system. Students who have scored the highest marks across the Arts, Science, and Commerce streams are invited to the board office for an interview with a panel of experts.

During this session, students undergo a brief viva-voce and are asked to write sample answers to verify that their handwriting matches their exam scripts. This process is designed to prevent any discrepancies in the high-stakes merit list.
