The Madhya Pradesh Board of Secondary Education (MPBSE) is set to announce the Class 10 and 12 board exam results for 2025 in the first week of May, following directives from Chief Minister Mohan Yadav to expedite the evaluation process.
Over 16 lakh students who appeared for the exams between 27 February and 25 March can access their scores on the official websites mpbse.nic.in and mpresults.nic.in, or through the MPBSE mobile app, by entering their roll number and date of birth.
Officials have confirmed that answer sheet evaluations are complete, and final preparations, including data verification, are underway. The results will not be declared in April, with the board prioritizing accuracy and transparency in the lead-up to the announcement.
Results Imminent Amid Statewide Anticipation
The Class 10 exams were held from 27 February to 19 March, while Class 12 exams took place between 25 February and 25 March, conducted across 3,887 centres in Madhya Pradesh. Students must secure at least 33% marks in each subject to pass.
A senior MPBSE official clarified, “The result is not releasing this month [April],” adding that the declaration is now expected by the first week of May. To ensure accessibility, results will also be available via SMS (students must text MP10/MP12 [Roll Number] to 56263) and the MPBSE app, particularly aiding those in regions with limited internet connectivity. The board has advised students to keep their admit cards handy for quick reference to roll numbers.
Historical Context and Future Steps
In 2024, the MPBSE declared results on 24 April, with pass percentages of 63.29% for Class 10 and 68.87% for Class 12.
Comparatively, the 2023 results saw 76.04% (Class 10) and 72.41% (Class 12) pass rates, while the 2021 results recorded a 100% pass rate due to pandemic-related mass promotions. Post-result, students dissatisfied with their scores can apply for re-evaluation or supplementary exams, which are typically held in June/July.
The board has emphasized reliance on official portals to avoid misinformation, warning against third-party websites claiming early access. Additionally, the MPBSE will release a district-wise merit list and topper details alongside the results.
The Logical Indian’s Perspective
The period surrounding board results is often marked by heightened anxiety for students and families, underscoring the need for empathy and support systems. The Logical Indian urges stakeholders-educators, parents, and policymakers-to view academic outcomes as part of a broader journey, emphasizing holistic growth over singular metrics.
As the MPBSE prioritizes timely results, institutions must also integrate mental health resources, such as counseling helplines and stress-management workshops, to mitigate pressure. Let’s collectively foster a culture where effort and resilience are celebrated alongside achievement.
