Vedant Srivastava's CBSE re-evaluation gains 2 marks, physics unchanged
Vedant Srivastava, a Class 12 student, finally got his CBSE re-evaluation results after the board accidentally sent him someone else's physics answer sheet.
Even after asking for reviews in 11 questions across subjects, he only gained two extra marks, one in math and one in computer science. His physics score stayed the same.
CBSE admits error in on-screen marking
Vedant's case has put a spotlight on problems with CBSE's on-screen marking system, like mismatched answer sheets and scanning glitches.
The board did admit its mistake and had earlier bumped up his physics marks from 65 to 74, but nothing changed after re-evaluation.
With around 160,000 students applying for reviews this year and many still waiting for results as college deadlines approach, frustration is running high among students hoping for fair scores.
