HS council plans marks transfer
A student in Bengal’s Plus-II segmented course need not write a supplementary exam if he or she fails to obtain the pass marks (30 per cent) in any of the compulsory subjects in the second and fourth semesters by 5 per cent or less. The state higher secondary council will transfer marks from the candidate s top score in another compulsory subject to the one in which he or she failed and help the candidate get the pass marks. In the new Plus-II course, a student must have five compulsory subjects, including two language papers (vernacular and English).
The students must pass in the language papers. A council official said a student will have to write the supplementary exam if:
- The candidate fails in any of the language papers n The candidate fails to obtain the pass marks in any of the other three compulsory subjects by more than 5 per cent
- The candidate fails in more than one compulsory subject The transfer of marks will be applicable to the three subjects, other than the language papers
