SSLC students eagerly wait for their results after exams. But many don’t know how to check the result correctly or calculate their total marks and percentages. This guide walks you step by step through the process, including how to check online results and do mark calculations manually.

Step 1: Know Your Roll Number
Before anything, keep your SSLC registration number or roll number handy. This number is essential for accessing your result online.
Step 2: Open the Official Website
- Visit the official SSLC result website of your board (e.g., for Karnataka: karresults.nic.in).
- Avoid third-party websites to prevent misinformation or errors.
Step 3: Enter Details Correctly
- Enter your registration number.
- Type your date of birth exactly as per your school records.
- Click on the “View Result” button.
Step 4: Check Subject-wise Marks
Your mark sheet will display marks in each subject. Example:
Subject | Marks |
---|---|
First Language | 85 |
Second Language | 78 |
Mathematics | 92 |
Science | 87 |
Social Science | 91 |
Total | 433/500 |
Step 5: Calculate Total and Percentage
Total = Add all subject marks.
Percentage = (Total ÷ Maximum Marks) × 100
Example:
- Total = 433
- Max = 500
- Percentage = (433 ÷ 500) × 100 = 86.6%
Step 6: Understand Grades
Check your board’s grade chart. For example:
- A+ = 90-100%
- A = 80-89%
- B+ = 70-79%
- and so on.
If you score 86.6%, your grade is A.
Step 7: Save or Print Your Result
Click on “Download” or “Print” to save your result for college admissions or other uses.
Step 8: What If You’re Not Satisfied?
You can apply for:
- Revaluation/Recounting if you feel the marks are incorrect.
- Supplementary Exams if you failed a subject.
Visit your school or board website for application forms and dates.
Tips for Students
- Double-check personal details.
- Don’t panic if your marks are low—improvement options are available.
- Save the digital and physical copy of your marks card.
- Talk to teachers for future guidance based on your marks.

Following this step-by-step method makes checking and calculating SSLC marks simple and error-free. Students should not feel stressed about the process. With this knowledge, they can confidently interpret their results and plan the next phase of their academic life.
