The Board of Secondary Education Karachi (BSEK) has officially rolled out a new grading system for matriculation exams, marking a major shift in student assessment.
According to the board, the revised grading structure will be implemented from the ongoing academic year for Class 9 students, while Class 10 candidates will be assessed under the new system starting in 2027. The minimum passing requirement has been fixed at 40 percent.
As part of the changes, the traditional “fail” status has been replaced with a newly introduced “U grade.” Students achieving between 96 and 100 percent marks will receive an A++ grade, whereas those scoring below 40 percent will fall under the U category. Only students securing 40 percent or above will be declared successful.
The board has also decided to introduce a GPA system on an interim basis. Students who fail to meet the minimum criteria will be required to sit for supplementary examinations.
