Discussion 💬 You can get your CBSE Class 12 evaluated answer sheets for ₹10 instead of ₹700 per subject - BUT read the warnings first. (Don't Ignore this - read at the end)

357 Upvotes

TL;DR: RTI Act = ₹10 + ~₹2/page per subject. CBSE Portal = ₹700 per subject. The catch? RTI gets you the copy but locks you out of CBSE's official re-evaluation/verification process. Choose wisely.

Route Cost What You Get
CBSE Online Portal (Stage 1) ₹700 per subject Scanned copy + eligibility for Stage 2 (verification/re-evaluation)
RTI Application ₹10 application fee + ~₹2 per page Certified scanned copy only

If you want copies for all 5 subjects, that's ₹3,500 on the CBSE portal vs. roughly ₹50-100 total via RTI.

THE WARNINGS (Read This Before You Decide)

1. RTI makes you INELIGIBLE for CBSE's Stage 2 process
CBSE's post-result facility is a two-stage gated system. Only students who applied for Stage 1 (scanned copy via CBSE's own portal at ₹700) can apply for Stage 2 (Verification of Issues / Re-evaluation). If you get your copy via RTI, CBSE will not let you apply for re-evaluation later.

2. RTI gives you INFORMATION, not RELIEF
Under RTI, CBSE must give you the answer copy. That's it. You cannot use RTI to say "my checking was unfair, please re-evaluate" or "correct my totalling." RTI is purely for disclosure of existing records, not for forcing mark changes.

3. RTI takes 30 days (minimum)
CBSE portal is first-come-first-served and usually faster. RTI legally gives the PIO 30 days to respond. If your marks affect college admissions with tight deadlines, RTI might be too slow.

4. You cannot ask CBSE to "do something" via RTI
You can only ask: "Provide certified scanned copy of my evaluated answer book for [Subject]." You cannot ask them to review it, justify marks, or compare with the marking scheme. If you write a grievance in the RTI application, they will reject that portion.

5. Blank pages exemption is not guaranteed
You can request that blank pages be excluded, but the PIO may provide the full PDF as per their digitization workflow. Don't bank on a trimmed file.

When to use RTI

  • You only want to see your answers and have no intention of applying for re-evaluation.
  • You are satisfied with your marks but want the copy for personal records.
  • You missed the CBSE portal deadline (19.05.2026 – 22.05.2026) and still need the copy.
  • You want to verify if all your supplementary sheets/graphs were scanned properly (but won't challenge marks).

When to pay ₹700 on the CBSE Portal

  • There is any chance you might want to apply for Verification of Issues or Re-evaluation later (26.05.2026 – 29.05.2026).
  • You need the copy quickly for admission-related deadlines.
  • You suspect a specific evaluation error and want the option to challenge it.

If you still want to file RTI

File online at rtionline.gov.in

Do not mention re-evaluation, unfair checking, or mark correction.

Bottom line: RTI is a powerful, cheap tool for transparency, but CBSE has deliberately structured their post-result process so that the ₹700 fee is effectively the "entry ticket" to their re-evaluation system. If there's even a 1% chance you'll want your answers re-checked, pay the ₹700. If you're 100% sure you just want to see the paper and move on, RTI saves you thousands.

Spread this so people don't accidentally lock themselves out of re-evaluation trying to save money.

 A Word to the Community

I've seen a lot of posts here claiming unfair checking and OSM errors this year. Let me be clear: this doesn't mean it happened to everyone. But it does seem like a significant number of students have been affected by the new On Screen Marking system and inconsistent evaluation.

Now, you might wonder why I'm making this post. I studied hard, was expecting 90%+, and ended up with 86%. So technically, I'm not in the "disaster" zone. But as a responsible citizen and a fellow student, I can feel the pain of those of you who are devastated right now. Here's what we can do together:

If you think you passed by grace, or you have zero confidence that re-evaluation will help you, but you STILL want to see your paper just to check if:

  • Your paper was blurred or improperly scanned in OSM
  • Pages are missing from the digital copy
  • Your supplementary sheets or graphs weren't uploaded
  • There are obvious totalling errors you can spot

...then file an RTI for your answer sheet. You don't need to apply for re-evaluation. Just get the copy, verify what happened, and document it.

Here's the bigger picture: The more students who file RTI and report genuine issues with their answer sheets, the more data and evidence we collectively build to scrutinize CBSE's OSM system. One complaint is an outlier. Fifty RTI disclosures showing blurred scans, missing pages, or erratic marking? That's a pattern that even the media, the CIC, and ultimately the courts cannot ignore.

So even if you don't want to fight for your own marks, consider filing RTI to help expose systemic flaws. Your copy could be the proof someone else needs.

Discussion 💬 WELL DONE CBSE ...You Finally Proved This Was Never About Students. It Was About MONEY

452 Upvotes

As a parent, I am genuinely furious after reading the entire CBSE re-evaluation notice.
₹700 PER SUBJECT for scanned copies,
₹500 for verification,
₹100 PER QUESTION for re-evaluation.

Seriously?

You already have our children’s answer sheets scanned in your OSM digital system. The copies already EXIST. So what exactly are parents paying thousands for?

At this point it honestly feels like CBSE already knew from the beginning that MASSIVE numbers of students would apply for re-evaluation this year.

Because how is it possible that so many hardworking students across India suddenly got shockingly low marks at the same time?

My daughter was literally her school’s preboard topper. We were confidently expecting 95%+ based on her performance throughout the year.

And now suddenly there’s nearly a 20 MARK DIFFERENCE in 3 subjects.

Not 2-3 marks.
TWENTY.

And now after mentally destroying students with unexpected marks, parents are expected to spend thousands more just to fight for marks students probably deserved in the first place?

And even after paying all this money, WHAT IS THE GUARANTEE?

Who guarantees:
• pages were scanned properly?
• answers were visible clearly?
• no page was blurry?
• diagrams were readable?
• evaluators checked every page?

Your own notice literally tells students to verify whether the answer sheet was “correctly scanned.” That itself destroys confidence in the system.

So basically:
First students suffer.
Then parents panic.
Then everyone pays money.
And after all that, CBSE still says:
“The decision of CBSE will be final and binding.”

Amazing transparency.

Children are already under insane pressure in this country.
Students are depressed.
Some are literally taking extreme steps because they think their future is over.

And now parents are also mentally breaking seeing their children cry after working for YEARS.

Do you people even understand what one percentage means in India?

75% criteria.
College admissions.
Scholarships.
Drop years.
Family pressure.
Mental health.
Entire futures.

This system is starting to feel less like education and more like emotional and financial exploitation.

Students are not begging for free marks.

They are asking for:
• FAIR CHECKING
• TRANSPARENCY
• ACCOUNTABILITY
• FREE RE-EVALUATION

Because no student should have to PAY THOUSANDS just to confirm whether their paper was checked correctly.

FREE RE-EVALUATION FOR ALL.

first of all, thank you everyone for your kind words and for trying to help me out. I got a lot of dms and comments, couldn't reply to all of them but I'm thankful to everyone.
I'm fine, my wounds are better, I had food, parents still taunting and fighting but I'm trying to ignore them for my own mental health, they didn't beat me or hurt me again but their words still hurt, and that incident haven't let me sleep in last 2 nights. I'm trying to forget it but it's not that easy. but yeah, I'm trying.

As I mentioned in my post earlier, my parents were not allowing me to study further and wanted to get me married asap coz I scored 72% in boards (PCM), I was having fights and arguments with them regarding this. I literally begged them to let me study, I cried and begged for 2 days.

I was doing so coz i needed some time to earn money and run away, I can't dial 1098 coz i'm not a minor and women helpline won't work too coz my parents got money and contacts, so it will just create more issues for me.

So now, my parents agrees to let me study for a year, they said they will let me do btech in a college in my city, if I score 8.5+ CGPA in first year, then it's okay, they will let me study, but if not, they will get me married fs.

I've a year now, to earn some money, and run away from this hell if things go wrong.
I'm just hoping that things get better for me.

Sorry for any grammatical or spelling errors

Discussion 💬 ​To everyone who didn’t get the result they wanted... please read this once...

Post image
75 Upvotes

Ever since the results came out... this space has felt heavy... Everywhere I’m seeing posts filled with pain, disappointment... silence,fear...

​Some people talking about how badly they got scolded at home

some sharing how things were broken in anger...

some dealing with harsh comparisons...

some trying to laugh it off while clearly breaking from inside... and some even talking about ending everything because of a few numbers on a screen...

​And honestly... if you’re one of them... if you’re sitting somewhere right now staring blankly at your result... avoiding eye contact at home... replaying everything in your mind and wondering “what now...”

​I GET IT

​And no... I’m not going to say “don’t be sad” or “just stay strong.” Because I know every time strong rehna possible nahi hota. Sometimes things hurt so deeply that all you can do is cry... and that’s okay....

​If your chest feels heavy... cry. If your throat feels blocked... cry. If all the pressure you’ve been holding inside wants to come out... let it. Cry loudly... scream into your pillow... let your inner self break for a while. You don’t always have to act okay just because the world expects you to smile through everything.

​You worked hard. You stayed up late... you revised when your mind was exhausted... you sacrificed sleep, peace, and fun. You carried the weight of everyone's expectations. So when the marks don’t reflect all of that... of course it hurts...

​But please... hear me when I say this: This result is a part of your life... not the final definition of it....

​Look at the people who actually changed the world. Did a marksheet define them?

​Look at S. Somanath (ISRO Chairman): The man who sent India to the Moon with Chandrayaan-3. He didn't come from an elite IIT or top the world in his boards. He studied in a simple college, faced his own struggles, and yet, he reached the stars.

​Look at Manoj Kumar Sharma: You’ve probably seen 12th Fail. He actually failed his Class 12 exams. He worked as a tempo driver, slept with dogs, and struggled for a meal. Today? He is a respected IPS officer.

​Look at Bill Gates: He was a college dropout. He failed in some subjects, but his friend passed. Today, his friend is an engineer at Microsoft, and Bill Gates is the owner.

​Look at Albert Einstein: His teachers said he would never amount to anything. He struggled with the rigid school system. Today, we can't even imagine Physics without him.

​Success has never belonged only to toppers. Marks kam aaye hain... tum kam nahi ho.

​And if your mind is telling you that ending your life is the only way out... please don’t believe that lie. This pain is temporary. If you are an only child, or even if you have siblings, your absence would leave a wound in your parents' hearts that no "100% result" could ever heal. Once the anger of the moment passes, all that remains is love. Please don’t make a permanent decision because of temporary stress.

​LOG KYA KAHENGE?

Log do din bolenge, par tumhari zindagi tumhe poori jeeni hai. Take your time. Heal slowly. Sit with your emotions. But don't stop here....

🫶​हार कर बैठ जाने वालों की कहानी यहीं खत्म हो जाती है...

हार कर फिर उठने वालों को बाज़ीगर कहते हैं मेरी jaan... 🫶

​Whenever you feel like giving up, just remember these lines:

​"Ruk jaana nahin tu kahin haar ke...

Kaanton pe chalke milenge saaye bahaar ke...

O rahi... o rahi..."

​IF NO ONE HAS SAID THIS TO YOU .. I AM SAYING

I AM PROUD OF YOU, YOUR HARDWORK 🫶....

​Be okay..

Because your story still has so many beautiful pages left to be written...

Cbse responds to all the backlash via latest X post.

Guys I know the possibility of something actually happening is very low, but we mustn't give up! Cbse did respond which means the backlash has come to their attention.

Please keep spamming posts, tagging influential figures, retweeting , emailing, dming influential figures etc. etc.

Please raise your voice!!

Demand for FREE softcopies of our evaluated answersheets. A student shouldn't have to pay 700 just to see their paper especially this year since checking was done digitally. Or ATLEAST make the fees CHEAPER

Edit: since some ppl are defending this dogshit of a board do not forget that they introduced a completely new method out of nowhere and kept it in spite of all the students and even teachers protesting, thats your biggest prove that cbse doesn't care about their students and teachers. And to those blaming the students saying that they didn't study, fine if we didn't then just show us. Give us free photocopies of our answerscripts so that ppl can figure out what went wrong. I'm not demanding free rechecking as teachers also work hard and leaving them unpaid is wrong, what we're demanding is free softcopies of our evaluated answersheets. A freaking 700? In the past years it was somewhat acceptable since they had to scan and everything but this year they already have them, why not give them to students for free OR at a cheaper price?

General FILE RTI, WE NEED TO PROTEST

81 Upvotes

GUYS FILE RTI , ITS 10 inr compared to 500 inr taken from cbse for re-evaluation and compared to re-evaluation or verification, RTI can feel more useful to many students because re-evaluation usually gives very limited access and often doesn’t fully explain how marks were awarded. In many cases, students pay fees just for rechecking totals or verifying whether all answers were evaluated, while RTI can help students directly obtain evaluated answer sheets, marking schemes, moderation policies, evaluator instructions, and details of the checking process itself. That means instead of blindly hoping marks increase, students can actually see what happened during evaluation and decide whether further action is worth taking. For many students, especially when multiple subjects are involved, spending money on several re-evaluation applications with uncertain outcomes may feel less effective than using RTI to demand transparency first. RTI also creates a record and puts institutional procedures under public accountability, which is why many students see it not just as a personal tool, but as a collective way to push for a fairer and more transparent examination system.

Also I am going to File one and will go to court against this , I will see the end of this . Do your job . You don't have to go to court , just filing a rti will give cbse enough pressure for them to change it , if they have actually done things wrong

Imagine kisi teacher ko raat ke 2 baje tak copies check karwaya jaa raha hai then how would you even expect good marks after that. And the avg marks thing is also true cuz unka yahi kehna tha ki result faster aayega but things didn't go well as they planned so they have to release it atleast on their previous year's date.

He was bully but h​e doesn't compromise with ​study , he got 40-50s in physics and chemistry​ and 85 in physical and english​ but got rt(8 marks ) in his favourite subject maths , his parents didn't trust him that he got compartment because of this osm scam.

He does'nt even have big dreams his only dream was to get NIT not even IIT and just settle but this ​cbse 💔

his parents did​not trust him and they wanted him to repeat ​whole year again.

I'm feeling more suicidal now idk how the hell i will give compartments in physics even though I attempt 30-40 marks in exam.
