GSEB SSC Grading Pattern 2026

Students must also go through the GSEB SSC Grading pattern 2026 to have a fair idea about how they will be marked in the GSEB Class 10 examinations.

  • Till 2010, a candidate’s percentage of total marks obtained used to determine his or her rank. Since 2011, a percentile system has been introduced
  • The percentile rank can be calculated as follows:

Step 1: The percentile is to be subtracted from 100

Step 2: The number obtained is multiplied by the total number of candidates who appeared for the exam in that group.

Step 3: The number obtained from the previous step is divided by 100 to get the rank.

  • This system provides a rank to all the candidates who have appeared for the exam instead of just the top 10 candidates
  • Instead of individual evaluation of marks, focusing on the group eases the process of calculating a candidate’s chances of admission to the graduate studies

It is actually different for everyone since everyone has their own speeds. It also depends on the paper- if its lengthy or not. There is a Cool-off time of 15 minutes in addition to the writing time. Use the 'Cool-off time' to get familiar with questions and to plan your answers. Read questions care
