Under the CBSE Best of Five rule, your final percentage is calculated using your top five subjects. If you score higher in Information Technology (IT) than in another subject, your IT marks can replace the lower-scoring subject in the calculation. This helps in maximizing your overall percentage.

Hello Sunitha,

Yes, many boards follow the Best 5 rule , where your total percentage is calculated using the best 5 subjects (including IT, if allowed by your board).

Key Points:

• If IT is a main/elective subject , it can replace a lower-scoring subject.
  
  
• Some boards don’t allow IT to replace core subjects (like English/Science/Math).
  
  
• Always check your board's marking policy to confirm.
