An estimated 6.6 lakh candidates, 56.03 per cent of them girls, wrote the exams in a new format – using OMR sheets. This is the first semester-based exam for Class 12 students in the state.

“Over 38 lakh OMR sheets are being scanned. The publication of results might be delayed as there will be festival holidays in the next one month. But we are confident of publishing it by October 31,” Bhattacharya told earlier.

In the new format, question papers in semesters one and three have multiple-choice questions to promote thinking and reasoning. Semesters two and four have SAQ (short answer question) and DQ (development quotient) to retain the writing abilities, he added. Last year, the WBCHSE HS results were released on May 7, 2025. The last exam in the annual system, conducted since 1978, was held in March this year.
