CBSE Results 2025 - Third Party Evaluation issue
Firstly, stop comparing your marks with any of your friends who you think scored way better than you expected them to do. Each year, I see Pre-Boards toppers bottle and choke in the final exam. At the same time, each year, someone who scored between 50% to 60% goes on to secure 90%(+) or more marks. If your 'dear' friend told you something else and their marks are not in line with the same, congrats you have now learnt that your 'dear' friends can lie to you as well.
Your focus should primarily be on your marks if you are disappointed with your score. If you are someone who believes that they were unfairly evaluated, you can exercise the option to apply for a copy re-evaluation. If there is any genuine error, CBSE Board is quite transparent on this count, and they will rectify their mistake.
Everyone who feels that they have a genuine case should consider applying for re-evaluation once the portal opens in a week I guess. This time, CBSE has already done a favor by moving the Copy release to the very first step of re-evaluation, unlike previous years. Last year, many students did not even apply for the third and final stage of re-evaluation because once they saw their copies, they realized that the evaluation was fair and they had made more mistakes than they had thought.
4. I can say with 100% certainty that CBSE has made no change in the process of evaluation of copies this year as well. Most people have simply misconstrued what Sanyam Bharadwaj Sir said in his interview to ANI. By "third-party evaluators", he clearly referred to the process of evaluation being done by a neutral party, as it is done every year. If students are the first party, their schools/CBSE are the second party and then the evaluator from another school designated by CBSE Board in a randomized manner at a randomized evaluation Centre is the third party here.
5. If CBSE were to rope in evaluators outside of CBSE schools, the schools would have been the first people to feel aggravated about such an evaluation process. People have simply misconstrued an innocuous statement and made a mountain out of a molehill. As a lawyer, let me use something which we call IN arguendo - even if CBSE has changed the evaluation process this year, people can still apply for re-evaluation and figure out the truth for themselves.
6. This post is not meant to discourage anyone from considering re-evaluation. I just want people to focus on something constructive rather than rant about the process of evaluation itself being changed without any basis. For such a change to take place, CBSE will have to issue notifications and take CBSE schools into confidence. Also, CBSE does not even call up teachers from a sizeable number of schools even now. They have an adequate number of teachers available, and they don't require external evaluators under any circumstances.
