What to Do If You Fail or Score Low in Jharkhand Board Exams – Best Options for Students

Published on

KKN Gurugram Desk | The Jharkhand Academic Council (JAC) has announced the Class 12th Result 2025 for students who appeared in the state board exams this year. While thousands have cleared the exam with good scores, many students are either dissatisfied with their marks or may have failed in one or more subjects.

If you are among those who did not score well in the JAC 12th Result 2025, don’t panic. This is not the end of the road. The education system offers multiple solutions to help students recover from such setbacks. In this article, we will explain all the available options, including revaluation, supplementary exams, and open schooling through NIOS, to help you plan your next steps smartly.

1. Revaluation: Get Your Answer Sheets Rechecked

If you believe your marks don’t reflect your performance or if you’re shocked by unexpected low scores, the revaluation process is your first and best option.

What is Revaluation?

Revaluation means rechecking or re-evaluating your answer sheet to ensure all answers were properly marked and totalled.

How to Apply for Revaluation:

  • The revaluation window opens a few days after the results are declared.

  • Applications must be submitted online via the official JAC website jac.jharkhand.gov.in.

  • You’ll need your roll number and other details to log in.

  • A revaluation fee is charged per subject.

Benefits of Revaluation:

  • If any errors in evaluation are found, your marks will be updated.

  • Many students have seen significant improvement in their results through this process.

2. JAC Supplementary Exams: Second Chance to Pass

If you have failed in one or two subjects, the Jharkhand Academic Council offers a supplementary exam as a chance to save your academic year.

Key Details:

  • Supplementary exams are conducted a few weeks after the main result is declared.

  • Students must register online at jac.jharkhand.gov.in.

  • You will need to pay a nominal examination fee.

  • You must prepare well and treat the supplementary exam like your final opportunity for the year.

Who Should Consider Supplementary Exams?

  • Students who have failed in one or two subjects only.

  • Those who are confident that with more preparation, they can pass.

Why Take This Seriously?

Supplementary exams are a golden opportunity to avoid wasting an entire academic year. Passing them puts you back on track with your peers.

3. NIOS (National Institute of Open Schooling): A Flexible Backup Option

If you’ve failed in more than two subjects or didn’t pass the supplementary exams, the National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS) is a highly recommended alternative.

What is NIOS?

NIOS is a government-recognized open school board that allows students to complete their Class 10 or 12 education through distance learning.

Advantages of NIOS:

  • Flexible curriculum: You can choose your preferred subjects.

  • On-Demand Exams: Students can take exams when ready instead of waiting for the annual board schedule.

  • Study from Home: No need to attend regular school; study materials and video lectures are provided online.

How to Apply:

  • Visit the official NIOS website: nios.ac.in

  • Fill out the online admission form.

  • Choose your subjects, upload documents, and pay the registration fee.

Who Should Choose NIOS?

  • Students who are not comfortable reappearing for the state board exam.

  • Those looking for a more flexible education system.

  • Students interested in pursuing career-specific courses while continuing their education.

Bonus Tip: Career Counseling and Mental Health Support

Whether you scored low or failed, it’s important to take care of your mental health. This can be a stressful time, but remember that failure in one exam doesn’t define your future. Consider talking to:

  • Career counselors to explore new options.

  • Teachers or mentors who can guide you through your recovery.

  • Psychologists or school counselors if you’re feeling depressed or anxious.

Remember, even successful people like Albert Einstein and Steve Jobs faced academic setbacks before achieving greatness.

Important Dates to Remember (Tentative for 2025)

Process Expected Dates
JAC 12th Result 2025 May 31, 2025
Revaluation Form Start Within 7 days of result
Supplementary Exam Registration June 2025
Supplementary Exam Dates July 2025
NIOS Admission Window Open year-round

Note: Always check the official JAC and NIOS websites for updated information.

If you didn’t get the JAC 12th Result 2025 you were hoping for, don’t let disappointment take over. Education in today’s time is full of opportunities and second chances. Whether it’s revaluation, supplementary exams, or NIOS, there’s a clear path ahead.

Stay positive, take responsible steps, and remember: Failure is a part of success, not the end of it.
