Hello,

If you received a compartment in Mathematics and Physics in your Class 12 exams and your result card shows Physics as an additional subject while Hindi appears in the main subject table, it means your board has counted Hindi as one of your five main subjects instead of Physics. This usually happens when a student fails in one or more core subjects, and the board uses the highest-scoring optional subject to determine pass/fail status.

However, since Physics and Math are both core subjects in the PCM stream, and you’ve received compartments in them, you are still eligible to appear for compartment exams in both subjects—provided your board allows two compartments. You do not need to repeat your entire 12th class, but you must clear the compartment exams to be considered pass in the PCM stream and be eligible for further studies in Science or technical fields.

Hope this helps. All the best!
