ISC Result 2027, Recheck and Re-evaluation

CISCE will declare the ISC Class 12 result 2027 in April / May 2027. The result will be published only on cisce.org and will not be available from the CISCE office. Students who are not happy with their marks can apply online for a recheck within four days of the result. This is a paid service. A recheck only checks that all answers were marked, that the marks were totalled correctly and that the continuation booklets are attached.

Students can then apply for re-evaluation within three days of the recheck result, but only for the subjects that were rechecked. The marks after re-evaluation, whether higher or lower, will be final, and the fee is non-refundable. Schools can apply on behalf of their students through the CAREERS portal. CISCE keeps answer scripts for only 60 days after the result.

ISC 2027 Improvement Examination

• All students who appear in the ISC 2027 main exam can take the Improvement Examination in the same year. This includes students who did not qualify. Students marked ABSENT are not eligible.
• A maximum of three subjects can be taken, and the theory paper is compulsory.
• Practical and project marks from the main exam will be carried forward.
• Schools will register students online. The registration dates will be announced later.
• Regular students who fail ISC 2027 can reappear in ISC 2028 in all subjects without further attendance, but not after that. Entries for 2028 will be accepted through schools in August and September 2027.
