For your CBSE Class 12 Accountancy exam in the 2024-25 batch, the passing criteria involve scoring a minimum of 33% marks in the theory examination and 33% marks in the practical/internal assessment separately.

The Accountancy theory paper is typically for 80 marks, and there is also a project work/internal assessment component for 20 marks.

To pass the theory paper (out of 80 marks), you need to score at least 33% of 80. 0.33×80=26.4 Therefore, you need to score at least 27 marks out of 80 in the theory exam to pass in Accountancy.

You also need to pass the internal assessment/project work separately. The passing mark for the internal assessment (usually out of 20 marks) would be 33% of 20: 0.33×20=6.6 So, you would need to score at least 7 marks out of 20 in your internal assessment/project work.

If you score less than 27 out of 80 in the Accountancy theory paper, you will not meet the passing criteria for the theory component. Even if you have passed in the other five subjects and the internal assessment in Accountancy, you will likely have to appear for a compartment examination in Accountancy.

CBSE allows students who fail in a maximum of two subjects to appear for a compartment exam in those subjects in the same academic year. This gives you a chance to clear the subject without having to repeat the entire year.

Therefore, yes, if you score less than 27 out of 80 in the Accountancy theory paper, you will have to give a compartment exam in Accountancy , provided you have not failed in more than one other subject. Make sure to focus on your preparation for all your subjects to avoid this situatioon.

Hello,

No, you will not need to appear for the compartment exam if you score less than 27 out of 80 in Accountancy. However, you must ensure that your overall score in each subject is above the passing marks, which is typically 33% of the total marks.

Since you have 6 subjects, you need to pass in all of them. If your total marks in Accountancy fall below the passing criteria , you might have to give a compartment exam for that subject.

Hope it helps !
