HSC results by mid-Oct

The results of this year's Higher Secondary Certificate (HSC) and equivalent exams will be finalised through subject mapping, where marks for six cancelled exams will be calculated based on students' results from the Secondary School Certificate (SSC) and equivalent exams.

For subjects where exams were conducted, the answer sheets will be evaluated based on the full marks for those subjects, said Prof Tapan Kumar Sarker, president of the Inter-Education Board Coordination Committee yesterday.

The HSC results are expected to be published by mid-October, he added.

This year's HSC exams, which began on June 30, were disrupted due to deadly violence during the quota reform protests. The remaining exams were postponed, and after the fall of Hasina-led government, the interim government rescheduled the exams for September 11.

However, amid protests by some HSC candidates, the remaining exams were cancelled on August 20.

Over 14 lakh students were registered for this year's HSC examinations under nine general education, technical, and madrasa boards.
