Right after the result, two words cause the most confusion: scrutiny and supplementary. They solve different problems, and the deadlines are short, so it helps to know which one applies to you.
Scrutiny: when you think the checking went wrong
Scrutiny is the board’s re-checking process. It looks for totalling mistakes, answers left unmarked and errors in posting marks. It does not re-judge the quality of your answers. Apply if a subject’s marks are far below what you expected, or if you are just short of passing or an admission cut-off.
Applications are made online on the board’s website or through e-Mitra within a few days of the result. Full details: RBSE Revaluation (Scrutiny).
Supplementary: when you did not clear one or two subjects
If your result says “Supplementary”, you scored below 33% in one or two subjects. You can sit those subjects again a few weeks later and still pass in the same year. Full details: RBSE Supplementary Examination.
Quick decision table
| Your situation | What to do |
|---|---|
| Passed, but one subject looks wrong | Apply for scrutiny |
| Supplementary in one or two subjects, and you suspect a checking error | Apply for scrutiny and start preparing for the supplementary exam at the same time |
| Supplementary, and the marks look right | Prepare for and apply to the supplementary exam |
| Failed in more than two subjects | Talk to your school about reappearing in the next main exam |
Do not wait for one before the other
Scrutiny results can arrive close to the supplementary exam. If you are in the supplementary category, keep studying while your scrutiny is processed.
