In your case, you mentioned that you initially passed overall but failed in Chemistry. You then appeared for five improvement exams, passed Chemistry, and scored better in English and Physical Education. However, you failed in Physics and Mathematics during this improvement attempt.

Counselling authorities, whether for engineering, medical, or general undergraduate admissions, require that a student must pass in all compulsory subjects as prescribed by the board and the respective course eligibility criteria. If you have failed in Physics and Mathematics in your improvement attempt, your improvement marksheet will not be considered valid until you pass those subjects. Even if your original marksheet showed a pass in Physics and Mathematics but failure in Chemistry, it too would not be valid for science-based courses unless all required subjects are cleared.

The rule followed by most boards and admission authorities is that you must have a valid passing certificate in all subjects relevant to the course. They will consider your latest marks in each subject , only if you have passed them. If you failed in Physics and Mathematics in the improvement, but passed them earlier, the authorities may consider the earlier scores only if your board allows combining results from both attempts . This is usually done through a consolidated marksheet .

Therefore, to be eligible for counselling, you need a final marksheet showing a pass in all required subjects . Without this, your application may be rejected, regardless of higher marks in some subjects.

If you failed in an improvement exam in the CBSE board, your original marks from the regular exam are retained, and the improvement exam marks are not considered if they are lower. You remains eligible for admissions using your original marksheet. So your previous marks of physics and maths will be considered from the original marksheet.

Thank you.
