Hello,

Here’s a guide on filling your marks for Class 12 when you have six subjects:

1. Check Board Guidelines: Some boards (like CBSE) calculate percentage based on the top five scores, while others might include all subjects. Always refer to your board’s specific guidelines.

2. College Requirements: Many colleges and universities consider only the top five subjects for admission criteria. If your institution specifies this, focus on entering your top five.

3. Consistency: If your school requires all subjects to be listed for record-keeping, include all six. However, if only the best five are necessary, listing just those is common practice.

4. Fair Representation: If one subject has lower marks, listing only the top five can present a higher overall percentage, which can be beneficial for competitive admissions.

5. Scholarships and Cut-Offs: Some scholarship programs may require all subjects. If unsure, enter all marks to be thorough.

Hope it helps !

If you have six subjects in class 12, you should only fill in the marks for your top five subjects to calculate your aggregate percentage. The marks for your sixth subject are not included in your overall percentage.


According to 12th class the "Best of Five" rule is used to calculate the main percentage for class 12. This rule states that the main percentage is calculated using the marks from one language subject, such as English, and the other four subjects with the highest scores. The marks from the remaining subjects are not considered in any form
