The results of the Class 10 Secondary School Certificate (SSC) exams will be declared at 1pm on Monday (May 27).
Candidates who have appeared for the exam can check their results on the Maharashtra Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education’s official website, mahresult.nic.in.
The board had announced the Class 12 Higher Secondary Certificate (HSC) test results last Monday. Even though many teachers were engaged in election-related work, the board has managed to assess the Class 10 papers earlier than the previous two years, when the results were released on June 2 and June 17, respectively. It has achieved this feat despite an increase in the number of candidates after a continuous decline over the past five years.
More than 16 lakh students had registered for the Class 10 examination, which was conducted between March 1 and 22. While this figure is higher than 15.77 lakh registrations recorded in 2023-24, it’s still lower than 16.38 lakh students who signed up for the exam in 2022-23.
The board has attributed the decline to rising enrolment in schools affiliated to the national boards, CBSE and ICSE.
This year the tests were held at 5,086 centres across the state, including 1,060 in Mumbai division, which covers the city as well as Thane, Raigad and Palghar districts. Around 3.64 lakh students, 12,000 more than last year, took the test in the region.
