Understanding the re-evaluation scheme
If candidates are dissatisfied with the results of their rechecked subjects, they have the option to apply for the re-evaluation of their answer scripts for those specific subjects. The process involves submitting an online application, which must be done within 24 hours of the specified notification on the CISCE website (www.cisce.org).

For each re-evaluation request, candidates or their schools need to pay a fee of Rs. 1,500 per subject/paper online, as determined by CISCE. It's important to note that these charges are non-refundable. The results of all re-evaluation requests received by CISCE will be collectively declared within three weeks on the CISCE website.

The actual re-evaluation of the answer scripts will be conducted by a qualified individual appointed by the Chief Executive and Secretary of CISCE. Once the subject expert completes the re-evaluation, the resulting marks, whether increased or decreased, will be considered as the final marks.
