Score of a paper of Class X Board examination will move directly to the paper of Class-Xll of CHSE after necessary conversion out of maximum marks and rounding off to the next whole number in case of the decimal figure. ln case, none of the MIL/Language Papers of Class X has been taken at CIass-Xll, the then highest score in the MIL/Language Paper, irrespective of the MIL/Language Paper, will be the MIL score in Class-Xll. The scores in Optional Language Papers will be awarded in the same line as that of MIL paper.
ii. Average of the scores of the papers of Class X Board examination will be awarded in the paper of CIass-Xll of CHSE, in case the paper of Class-Xll of CHSE is related to more than one paper of 10th Board, after necessary conversion out of maximum marks and rounding off to the next whole number in case of the decimal figure.
iii. Average of best two scores of Mathematics, Science and Social Science of Class X Board examination will be awarded in the elective paper of Class-Xll of CHSE, in case the elective paper of Class-Xll of CHSE doesn’t have any relation with any paper after necessary conversion out of maximum marks and rounding off to the next whole number in case of decimal figure.
