Hello Aspirant,

If you received an RT (Repeat Theory) in your compartment examination, and you wish to appear as a private candidate in your second chance:

1. How: You will have to register as a private candidate online through the official website of your Board when advertisement is released (generally, a few weeks after results);
2. When: The exam itself can take place a few months later (CBSE conducts it in July–August for Class 12 for instance,); the dates and the registration period for the concerned exam will be mentioned in the circular of the Board.
3. If you manage to pass in this second attempt, you will receive a fresh marksheet with only the (passed) updated result shown. The previous compartment attempt will also not be specified anywhere on the final marksheet. You may also be provided with a separate pass certificate if you did not get one before.
