The Three-Exam System Explained
Karnataka’s three-exam system gives every student multiple chances within the same academic year — one of the most student-friendly policies of any state board in India:
Exam 1 (March 18 – April 2, 2026): Main exam. Result: April 23, 2026. Pass percentage: 94.10%.
Exam 2 (May 18–25, 2026): First supplementary. For NC students (free) and improvement candidates. Result: June 2026.
Exam 3 (July 2026 — Subject to KSEAB confirmation): Second supplementary. For students who did not clear Exam 2. However, due to the record 94.10% pass percentage in 2026, KSEAB and the Education Minister have indicated that Exam 3 may not be conducted this year if the number of remaining failing students is very low. Official confirmation is awaited.
Students not clearing Exam 3 (if held) must repeat the academic year.
Revaluation for Exam 1 — Key Information
Students who believe their Exam 1 marks are incorrect can apply for revaluation or re-totalling through kseab.karnataka.gov.in. The window typically opens 10–15 days after the Exam 1 result. Revaluation results are usually published around the Exam 2 dates. If revaluation improves your marks to a pass, you do not need Exam 2.
