NOTIFICATION
The system of ‘Relative Grading’ adopted by the CBSE for awarding subject-wise grades to the candidates in class X & XII Examinations along with the Marks secured by them in each subject has already been circulated vide circular number CBSE/CE/Coord/2021 dated 25 February 2021.
The contents of the said circular are reiterated for the information of all the stakeholders as below –
CBSE awards subject-wise grades to the candidates in class X & XII Examinations along with the marks secured by them in each subject. The awarded grades are reflected in the mark-sheet cum certificate issued to the candidates of class X & XII.
The ‘Relative Grading’ which has been adopted by the CBSE is based on the relative grading which is the more scientific approach instead of absolute grading where in grades are given based on predetermined cut off levels. Meaning thereby, the grades are not determined on the marks range i.e. 91 to 100, 81 to 90 or so but on the basis of the group, the candidates fall into on the relative merit of the candidates. The grades vary from subject to subject based on the number of candidates passing the subject.
For awarding grades , all the passed students are put in a rank order divided into 8 equal groups and are awarded grades as follows-
| A- 1 | Top 1/8th of the passed candidates |
| A-2 | Next 1/8th of the passed candidates |
| B-1 | Next 1/8th of the passed candidates |
| B-2 | Next 1/8thof the passed candidates |
| C-1 | Next 1/8th of the passed candidates |
| C-2 | Next 1/8th of the passed candidates |
| D-1 | Next 1/81h of the passed candidates |
| D-2 | Next 1/8th of the passed candidates |
| E | Essential Repeat |
While placing the candidates in a rank order, the following points are taken into consideration:
(a) Minor variations in proportion of candidates to adjust ties are made, wherever necessary.
(b) In case of a tie, all the students getting the same score are awarded the similar grade.
(c) Method of grading is used in subjects where the number of candidates who have passed is more than 500.
(d) In respect of subjects where total number of candidates passing in a subject is less than 500, the grading would be adopted on the pattern of grading and distribution in other similar subjects .
The following example illustrates how the grading system works :
| Grades |
Subject and number of candidates passing the subject HINDI -159052 |
Subject and number of candidates passing them subject History- 158585 |
Subject and number of candidates passing the subject ECONOMICS- 383647 |
Subject and number of candidates passing the subject NCC-304 |
|
Grade A1 |
159052 (X) 1/8 | 158585(x) 1/8 | 383647(x) 1/8 | 304(x)1/8 = 38 |
| =19881 .5 -19882 | =19823 .12 -19824 | =47955 .87- 47956 | Meaning thereby top 38 | |
| Meaning thereby top | Meaning thereby top | Meaning thereby top | candidates will get | |

Next 38 candidates will aet Grade 02 |
In the ‘Relative Grading’ system adopted by the Board, a candidate obtaining identical marks in any two subjects may not get the same grade in those two subjects. The grades will be different based on the number of candidates passing the subject and their relative scores .
This is for information to all stakeholders.
