Last year, a distinct marking scheme was followed as exams for some papers were held as the pandemic broke out. For the students who appeared for three or more papers were given marks based on the average of the highest marks obtained in any three subjects they have appeared for. In case of those students who appeared for only two exams, the average of the two highest-scoring exams were considered while marking them for the paper which could not be held. The result for these students, especially those who appeared for less than two papers, was calculated based on performance in internal or practical or project-based assessment. Source: PTI
