5.37 per cent candidates have scored over 95% on aggregate.
The board exams were cancelled this year in view of the aggressive second wave of Covid-19, and the results were announced on basis of an alternate assessment policy.
The board adopted a 30:30:40 formula to evaluate students based on the results of Class-X, XI and XII examinations respectively.
30% weightage has been given to class X and XI final results, respectively, and 40% to class XII pre-board exams
Some students were unhappy about the marking formula, and wanted that further weightage be given to class XII performance.
However the matter was settled after the marking formula was accpetd by the Supreme Court.
CBSE was the first to cancel Class XII exams on June 1; several other state boards followed.
