To pass the Karnataka 2nd PUC examination, students are required to secure a minimum of 35% marks in each subject, including both theory and practical components. However, specifically, they must obtain at least 25 marks in the theory section and 11 marks in the practical exam to be considered as having passed a subject. Education Minister Madhu Bangarappa while announcing the result said that 8,000 students were given marks under a valuation scheme, but those were not grace marks. “There is no general provision for grace marks,” he reiterated. Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, who was briefed in the presence of senior education officials, also supported the move to maintain exam integrity without awarding grace marks.

The Karnataka 2nd PUC exams follow a three-section format: Exam 1, Exam 2, and Exam 3, allowing students to attempt the exam three times and retain their highest score.
The 2nd PUC first exam is mandatory, while the second and third exams are optional for improving scores. Students can choose to retake any subject they wish to improve in during these optional exams. However, there is no specific limit mentioned on the number of subjects a student can choose to improve in during exams 2 and 3. Essentially, students can select any subject they want to retake to improve their score, provided they have already taken it in the first exam.
