The Odisha Board of Students Secondary Education (BSE) has changed the evaluation process for the matric exams. It is conducting two summative assessments with the first one being held in January, and the second one to be held from April 29 and will continue till May 6. Thereafter, BSE will award the final marks to the students after considering the marks obtained in the two summative assessments along with internals.
This means the Odisha board will evaluate the matriculation students in three ways. The best scores obtained by the students in the summative assessments and internal will be considered final. According to reports, Chief Secretary Suresh Chandra Mohapatra has said that the BSE after holding a meeting with students, parents and others has decided to evaluate the candidates using all the three methods.

For the he third method, 30 per cent marks will be given to the first summative assessment, 50 per cent marks to the second summative assessment and 20 per cent marks for the internal assessment will be considered.
On the basis of the best score obtained through any one of the above mentioned methods, the candidates will get the final marks. This decision has been taken by the authorities in view of the Covid-19 situation in the country.
