KSEAB has introduced a new system with three annual exams (PUC exam 1, 2, and 3). Students must take the first exam, while the subsequent two are optional opportunities to improve scores, with the best result counting toward the final grade. Students can retake any subject from the first exam in these optional attempts.
For more information on Karnataka board results for PUC 2 exams, students can check IE Education portal.
The evaluation uses an 80+20 model (80 for the written exam, 20 for internal assessment). The minimum pass percentage has been lowered from 35% to 30%. To pass, a student needs a minimum of 30 marks in each subject (combining written and practical/internal scores) and an overall aggregate of 33% (198 out of 600). In late February, the KSEAB faced scrutiny when a fake PUC 2 question paper was circulated online.
