Good News For Some Students
Sources also hint at the Board’s plans to give grace marks so that the overall passing percentage may improve by 10-20%. The average passing percentage in 2016 stood at 44.6. The Board has received an official permission from the State Government to grant 8 grace marks. A student who fails in one subject will be given 8 marks as grace and a student failing in two subjects will be given 4 grace marks in each. Grace marks if given will improve the overall passing percentage to 50-60 from the previous year’s 44.6.

Need To Improve Educational Standards
After a photo of mass cheating during exams surfaced in the social media in 2015, the education authorities had installed CCTV cameras and set up security personnel at the exam centres in 2016. The state of Bihar had faced a number of controversies of exams cleared through unfair means. The result of Class 12 board exam (held between February 14 and February 25) was announced with only 30.11 students clearing the exams. Only 37.1% students in Arts cleared the exam and 73.76 in commerce which was better than the former. Ganesh Kumar (Arts) had scored 82.6%. However, it was brought to light that Kumar had lied about his age to the authorities and knew nothing about the subject he had taken in the exam. Similarly in 2015, the topper of Class 12 Ruby Rai could not pronounce Political Science and said that the subject had something to do with cooking. The Stage Government must take urgent measures to improve the overall standard of education in the state. A few students resorting to the unfair means to clear the exams shatter the hearts of those who genuinely study and prepare. Once the overall educational standard is improved, there will arise healthy competitions among students to score more and aim higher.
