16. Operational Modalities 1
Grades on a 9 point scale will be awarded.
Performance will be assessed using conventional numerical marking and same will be converted into grades.
The CBSE will issue a statement of Subject wise performance i.e. Grade Sheet (NO MARKS) for class X students studying in secondary schools
In case a student leaves the CBSE system after having completed the Final Formative and Summative Assessments in the school he / she will be allowed to appear for the Boards (pen paper / online) EXTERNAL EXAMINATION.
Further, for those students who wish to assess themselves, after having given the final Summative Assessment in the school, an ON DEMAND PROFICIENCY TEST is available online which is different from the EXTERNAL EXAMINATION conducted by the board.

17. Operational Modalities 2
Students will only be promoted on the basis of both Formative and Summative Assessments both of which are mandatory.
Percentile Rank will be given on demand by the CBSE for the students who appear in the external examination conducted by the Board

18. What is Percentile Ranking ?
Percentile – A percentile rank is the percentage of scores that fall below a given score. To find the percentile rank of a score x, out of a set of n scores, where x is not included, use.
LETS TAKE AN EXAMPLE…
NO. OF STUDENTS IN A CLASS= 40
SCORE OF STUDENT ‘A’= 80%
NO. OF STUDENTS BELOW HIM= 22
PERCENTILE RANKING OF STUDENT A
NO. OF STUDENTS BELOW (A)
X 100
TOTAL NUMBER OF STUDENTS 22
X 100 = 55 PERCENTILE RANK 40

19. GRADING SYSTEM
ADVANTAGES
