Besides, the test will be taken at 100 marks instead of 200 marks. But in both cases there is a need to improve the situation. In other words, if the infection falls below 10 percent, the test will be taken after confirming the hygiene rules.
If this is not possible, in the case of SSC, 50 per cent of the results of the Junior School Certificate (JSC) examination and 50 per cent of the results on assignments and class activities may be prepared. In case of HSC, the result can be given by combining 50% of the result of SSC, 25% of JSC and 25% of the result of assignment.
