What is JAC Board Secondary Exam 2026?
The JAC Board Secondary Exam, also known as the JAC 10th Exam or Jharkhand Board Class 10 Exam, is the annual matriculation examination conducted by the Jharkhand Academic Council (JAC). It is held for students enrolled in Class 10 across JAC-affiliated schools in Jharkhand.
The Jharkhand Academic Council was established in 2003, after Jharkhand became a separate state in November 2000. JAC conducts board examinations for Classes 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 across the state. The Class 10 examination is one of the most important academic milestones for students in Jharkhand, as the marksheet and pass certificate are required for admission to Class 11 and higher education institutes.

It is expected to be held in July/August 2026, with the registration window opening after the official notification is published on jac.jharkhand.gov.in.
Students who did not clear the main exam do not have to repeat an entire academic year if they qualify for the supplementary route. This exam covers the same syllabus and follows the same pattern as the main exam — there is no separate or reduced syllabus.

- Students who were marked absent in any subject due to a valid reason (subject to board approval)

JAC 10th Grading System and Marks vs Division 2026
The JAC Board Class 10 result uses a division-based system rather than a grade point system. Your total percentage across all six subjects determines the division you receive. Here is how the division system works:
Division-wise Marks Criteria
| Division | Percentage Range | Marks Range (out of 600) |
|---|---|---|
| Distinction | 75% and above | 450 and above |
| First Division | 60% – 74.9% | 360 – 449 |
| Second Division | 45% – 59.9% | 270 – 359 |
| Third Division | 33% – 44.9% | 198 – 269 |
| Fail / Supplementary | Below 33% in any one subject | Below minimum threshold in any subject |
Minimum Passing Criteria
To pass the JAC Class 10 exam, you must meet all three of these conditions together:
- Score a minimum of 33 marks out of 100 in each subject (theory + internal combined)
- Score at least 26 marks out of 80 in the theory paper of each subject
- Score at least 7 marks out of 20 in the internal assessment of each subject
Even if your aggregate across all six subjects is above 198, failing in any single subject means you are placed in the supplementary category for that subject. You are not declared an overall pass until you clear all subjects.
JAC 10th 2026 Division-wise Performance Summary
| Division | Share of Passed Students (2026) |
|---|---|
| First Division (including Distinction) | 54.20% |
| Second Division | 40.63% |
| Third Division | 5.17% |
More than half of all students who passed in 2026 secured First Division or Distinction — a strong indicator of improved academic performance across Jharkhand schools over recent years.
JAC 10th Registration Statistics and Trends
The JAC Class 10 exam is one of the largest state board examinations in eastern India. Students from all 24 districts of Jharkhand appear for this exam every year. Understanding the participation and performance trends gives context about just how competitive and widespread this examination is.
JAC 10th 2026: Key Participation Numbers
In 2026, a total of 4,24,001 students registered for the JAC Board Class 10 exam. Out of these, 4,22,109 students appeared — around 1,892 registered students did not show up on exam day. Of those who appeared, 4,02,178 passed, giving an overall pass percentage of 95.27%.
Year-wise JAC Class 10 Pass Percentage Trends
| Year | Students Appeared (Approx.) | Overall Pass Percentage |
|---|---|---|
| 2026 | 4,22,109 | 95.27% |
| 2025 | ~4,10,000 | ~90%+ |
| 2024 | ~4,00,000 | ~88–90% |
The pass percentage has shown a rising trend over the past few years, reflecting improvements in school infrastructure, teaching quality, and student preparation across Jharkhand.
Girls vs Boys Performance in JAC 10th 2026
Girls outperformed boys in the JAC Class 10 exam 2026 — a trend that has held consistently in recent years. More girls secured First Division and Distinction marks compared to boys. This reflects the growing participation of girls in formal education across Jharkhand, supported by state government schemes encouraging girls’ schooling and retention.
Geographic Reach of JAC Board Exams
The JAC Board Class 10 exam covers all 24 districts of Jharkhand — including Ranchi, Dhanbad, Bokaro, East Singhbhum (Jamshedpur), Giridih, Hazaribagh, Deoghar, and Dumka. Urban districts generally show higher pass percentages due to better school facilities. Rural and tribal districts have shown consistent improvement over the past several years as a result of increased government investment in education infrastructure and teacher training.
Preparation Tips for JAC 10th Supplementary Exam 2026
If you are appearing for the JAC 10th Supplementary Exam 2026, you now have a targeted second chance to clear the subject you failed. The supplementary exam tests the exact same syllabus and follows the same pattern as the main exam. Here is how to make the most of the time you have before the July/August 2026 exam:
Start by Identifying Your Weak Areas
- Look at your main exam marksheet closely — identify the specific topics or question types where you lost marks
- Spend at least 60–70% of your study time on these weak areas
- Do not ignore topics you did well in — revise them to maintain your score in those areas
Use NCERT Textbooks as Your Primary Resource
- The JAC Class 10 syllabus is NCERT-based — your Class 10 NCERT books are the most important preparation material
- For Mathematics, solve all NCERT exercises and worked examples chapter by chapter
- For Science, focus on understanding diagrams, definitions, and chemical equations — do not just memorise them
- For Social Science, make chapter-wise short notes of dates, names, events, and terms — these are reliable scoring areas
- For Languages, practise grammar rules and writing formats (letter, essay, notice) — these sections reward consistent effort
Solve Previous Year Papers
- Solve the last 3–5 years of JAC Class 10 board question papers for the subject(s) you are re-appearing in
- This helps you understand which topics JAC repeats frequently and how questions are typically framed
- Time yourself during practice — aim to finish each paper within 3 hours to build real exam pace
Build a Daily Study Schedule
- With around 1–2 months before the supplementary exam, plan your days carefully from today
- Study 5–6 hours daily with short breaks of 10–15 minutes every hour to stay focused
- Keep the last 2 weeks before the exam for full revision and sample paper practice only
Revise Consistently and Write by Hand
- After completing a topic, revise it again within 24 hours — this significantly improves memory retention
- Make a quick-reference formula sheet for Mathematics and a definitions sheet for Science
- Write down key points, equations, and answers by hand during study sessions — writing reinforces memory better than just reading
Get Help for Difficult Topics
- If you are stuck on a concept, ask your subject teacher — do not leave any doubts unresolved
- Free NCERT video explanations and solved examples are widely available and can help clarify tricky topics quickly
- Studying with a friend who is also appearing for the supplementary exam can be very effective — explain topics to each other
Every day between now and the supplementary exam matters. Consistent preparation — even 5–6 focused hours daily — is enough to clear a subject in the supplementary round. Do not waste time.
