Applications for re-scrutiny of the 2026 HSC and equivalent examination results will close at noon today, Sunday, November 8. The application process began on November 1 and was initially scheduled to end on Saturday. However, the deadline was extended after server problems prevented many students from applying.
The extension was announced in a notice signed on Saturday night by Professor Jasmin Taslima Banu, convener of the Inter-Education Board Examination Controllers Committee. The notice said technical problems disrupted the online application process for answer-script re-scrutiny and re-evaluation from 4pm to 8pm on November 7.
As many candidates could not submit applications during that period, the deadline was moved from midnight on November 7 to noon on Sunday, November 8. Students seeking HSC result re-scrutiny must therefore complete their applications within the extended time.
According to a source at the Inter-Education Board Coordination Committee, 278,882 candidates from the nine general education boards have challenged their results this year. They have submitted applications to review a total of 1,037,717 answer scripts.
In 2025, 198,116 candidates applied for re-scrutiny after expressing dissatisfaction with their HSC results. They challenged 508,116 answer scripts. This year’s figures are higher in both the number of applicants and the number of scripts challenged.
The 2026 HSC and equivalent examination results were published on October 31. The overall pass rate was 52.12 percent, while 40,084 students achieved a GPA-5.
Under the Madrasa Education Board, the pass rate was 61.07 percent, with 3,250 students achieving GPA-5. The Technical Education Board recorded a pass rate of 49.43 percent, and 886 students achieved GPA-5.
This year, 298,040 students failed in one subject and 124,865 failed in two subjects in the HSC and equivalent examinations. The deadline for HSC result re-scrutiny applications is noon today.
