The Central Board of Secondary Education opened the application window for Class 12 students to obtain scanned copies of their evaluated answer books on May 19, 2026. Students who appeared for the CBSE 12th Board Examination 2026 and want to verify how their answers were marked can apply online at cbse.gov.in.
This process gives students an important opportunity to review their marked answer scripts before deciding whether to file a formal request for re-checking or re-evaluation. It is a key step in CBSE’s revaluation mechanism that thousands of students use every year after board results are declared.
What students need to know about CBSE Revaluation 2026:
- Window opened: May 19, 2026
- Official portal: cbse.gov.in
- Who can apply: CBSE Class 12 students who appeared in Board Exams 2026
- What you get: Scanned copy of your evaluated answer sheet

The revaluation process has come under scrutiny this year after a Class 12 student from Delhi publicly alleged on social media that the wrong Physics answer sheet was uploaded under his roll number. CBSE acknowledged the error and provided the correct sheet after reviewing the case. The controversy has prompted wider calls for more safeguards in CBSE’s Online Scanning and Marking system.
Meanwhile, CBSE’s digital evaluation system (OSM) is likely to continue next year with stronger oversight measures. Students with any concerns about their marks must apply within the official window without delay.
