PSEB Sets Record Straight on 2025 Board Exam Dates
If you were waiting anxiously for the Punjab School Education Board (PSEB) results in April, you weren't alone. Social media was flooded with rumors and so-called 'inside sources' giving out speculative dates. It turns out, all that buzz was way off. The PSEB put the confusion to bed, officially confirming both Class 10 and Class 12 results will land in May — not April as widely claimed.
The 12th board result came out first, going live on May 14, 2025, at 3:00 PM. Two days later, on May 16 at 2:30 PM, the 10th results followed. If you check the numbers, they tell an interesting story. The PSEB 10th result reported a pass rate of 95.61%, with girls once again coming out on top — a whopping 96.85% success rate for girls compared to 94.50% for boys. Meanwhile, the 12th result wasn't far behind. Out of 265,388 students, 241,506 passed, putting the overall pass percentage at an impressive 91%.
The official confirmation has ended all doubts, especially with rumors previously suggesting the results could drop by the end of April. Board officials clarified those whispers were unsubstantiated and only added to students’ anxiety.
How and Where to Check Your Results
Once the results went live, there was a rush of students trying to check their scores. If you're a student or parent, here's what you need to know: no need to wander around third-party sites or fall for clickbait links. The PSEB has made the process straightforward. Just visit pseb.ac.in, enter your roll number or name, and you’re in. Apart from seeing your scores, you can also download a provisional marksheet — perfect for college applications and entrance exams that might need immediate proof.
The board made it clear: stick to the official portal. They didn't publish results anywhere else to avoid confusion and errors. This move also stops fake websites from luring students with misleading or wrong information.
The conversation around results wasn't just about numbers. Safety was a top priority. Exams this year were held under strict COVID-19 precautions — masks, sanitizers, and social distancing were the norm. Even with these hurdles, students managed to pull off strong pass percentages. That's no small feat, considering the uncertainty and stress of the past few years.
What’s next for students whose results didn’t go as planned? The board will soon announce details for re-evaluation and compartment exams. Keep an eye on the official website for those updates. Meanwhile, successful candidates can use their provisional certificates for admissions until the original ones arrive at their schools.
Each year brings its own set of surprises, but this time, PSEB's quick response to rumors and their streamlined result delivery have kept stress levels down and confidence in the process up. For many students and parents across Punjab, May ended weeks of uncertainty — and marked the start of their next academic adventure.
