RBSE Class X Compartment Exam 2027 is expected to be held in July–August 2027, providing a second chance to students who fall short in one or two subjects in the Rajasthan Board Class 10 main examination. Conducted by the Rajasthan Board of Secondary Education (RBSE), headquartered in Ajmer, the compartment exam — officially called the Purak Pariksha (पूरक परीक्षा) — allows eligible students to clear their Class X without repeating the full academic year.
Over 11 lakh students appeared for the RBSE Class X main exam in 2026, with approximately 10–15% typically requiring a compartment opportunity each year. Students who fail in one or two subjects are awarded compartment status; failing in three or more subjects means repeating the entire year.
This page covers every key detail of the RBSE Class X Compartment Exam 2027 — eligibility criteria, important dates, application process, exam pattern, passing marks, grading system, and what to do after the compartment result is declared.
- Students who fail in 1 or 2 subjects in RBSE Class X 2027 are eligible for the compartment examination.
- The RBSE Class X compartment exam 2027 is expected in July–August 2027 at designated examination centres across Rajasthan.

- Passing the compartment clears your board result; your mark sheet will reflect Pass (Supplementary) for the subject cleared.
- Students who fail the compartment exam must either repeat the year as a regular student or appear as a private candidate in the next session.
- The compartment exam syllabus, pattern, and duration are identical to the RBSE Class X main board exam.

RBSE Class X Compartment Exam Eligibility Criteria 2027
Only students who appeared in the RBSE Class X main exam 2027 and received compartment status in one or two subjects are eligible for the supplementary examination. Students who fail in three or more subjects are not awarded compartment status and must repeat Class X as a regular student.
A student with compartment in two subjects must appear for and clear both subjects in the same compartment sitting. Passing one subject and failing the other in the same compartment session does not result in promotion — both subjects must be cleared together in that cycle.
| Criteria | Details | Key Insights |
|---|---|---|
| Educational Qualification | Must have appeared in the RBSE Class X main exam 2027 and received compartment status in 1 or 2 subjects | Students who failed in 3 or more subjects are ineligible; they must repeat the year |
| Attendance Requirement | Minimum 75% attendance required during the academic year for regular students | Students with attendance below 75% may not have been permitted to sit the main exam, making them ineligible for compartment as well |
| Registration Status | Must have been registered as a regular or private student with RBSE for the Class X 2026–27 session | Students who were absent in the main exam without a valid reason may not be granted compartment status |
| Number of Failed Subjects | Compartment is granted for 1 or 2 subjects only | Failing in more than 2 subjects means repeating the full year — no compartment option is available |
| Passing Criteria | Minimum 33% marks in theory and 33% overall in each compartment subject | Separate passing thresholds apply for theory and practical / internal components; a high internal mark cannot compensate for failing theory |
| Exam Attempts | Up to 3 attempts to clear Class X: main exam + compartment exam + next cycle as private / regular student | Exhausting all 3 attempts without passing requires rejoining as a regular student in the next academic year |
What is the rule of compartment exam in RBSE Class X?
- Regular Students: Students enrolled in RBSE-affiliated schools who fail in 1 or 2 subjects in the Class X main exam are granted compartment status and can appear in the Purak Pariksha held in July–August.
- Private Candidates: Private students who appeared in the RBSE Class X exam and received compartment in 1 or 2 subjects are also eligible; they must register independently via the RBSE portal within the application window.
- Ex-Regular / Compartment Students from a Previous Year: Students who failed their compartment exam in a previous cycle can appear as private candidates in the next RBSE Class X main examination (March 2028) to clear their remaining subject(s).
- Improvement Candidates: Students who have already passed RBSE Class X but wish to improve marks in specific subjects must appear in the full Class X examination as private students; they are not eligible for the compartment exam route.
How many chances are given in RBSE Class X compartment?
RBSE effectively gives students three attempts to clear Class X. The first is the main board exam in March, the second is the compartment exam in July–August (available only to students who fail in 1–2 subjects), and the third is the following year’s exam as a regular or private student. The compartment exam is offered once per academic cycle — there is no second compartment sitting within the same year. Students who fail the July–August compartment must wait for the next session (March 2028) to clear the remaining subject(s).
RBSE Class X Compartment Exam: Number of Attempts
| Attempt | Tentative Schedule | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| First Attempt (Main Exam) | March 2027 | All registered regular and private students; full syllabus across all subjects; results expected May 2027 |
| Second Attempt (Compartment / Purak Pariksha) | July–August 2027 | Only for students with compartment in 1–2 subjects; same syllabus and paper pattern as the main exam |
| Third Attempt (Next Session) | March 2028 | For students who fail the compartment exam; must appear as a regular or private student; fresh registration with RBSE required |
RBSE Class X Compartment Exam Fee Structure
The RBSE Class X Compartment Exam 2027 application fee will be officially announced by RBSE along with the compartment exam notification. The fee is collected per subject. The table below shows approximate figures based on the 2026 compartment exam cycle — confirm the exact 2027 fee at rajeduboard.rajasthan.gov.in once the official notification is published.
| Candidate Category | Fee per Subject (Expected) | Late Fee (Additional) |
|---|---|---|
| Regular Students (Schools in Rajasthan) | ₹150 approx (based on 2026 rates) | ₹200 approx |
| Private Candidates | ₹150 approx (based on 2026 rates) | ₹200 approx |
| Divyangjan (Students with Disability) | As per RBSE exemption norms — verify at official portal | As notified by RBSE |

RBSE Class X Passing Marks Criteria 2027
To pass the RBSE Class X Compartment Exam 2027, a student must meet two independent conditions: score at least 33% in the theory component of the subject and score at least 33% in the total of theory plus internal/practical marks. Failing to secure the minimum 33% in theory alone is a fail, even if the combined total reaches 33%.
| Subject | Theory Marks | Practical / Internal Marks | Passing Marks (Theory) | Passing Marks (Practical / Internal) | Total Passing Marks |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hindi | 80 | 20 (Internal) | 27 | 07 | 33 |
| English | 80 | 20 (Internal) | 27 | 07 | 33 |
| Mathematics | 80 | 20 (Internal) | 27 | 07 | 33 |
| Science | 70 | 30 (Practical) | 24 | 10 | 33 |
| Social Science | 80 | 20 (Internal) | 27 | 07 | 33 |
| Sanskrit / Third Language | 80 | 20 (Internal) | 27 | 07 | 33 |
Is 27 a passing mark out of 80 in RBSE Class X?
Yes. For subjects with an 80-mark theory paper in RBSE Class X, the minimum passing mark in theory is 27 out of 80 (33.75%, which exceeds the 33% threshold). However, scoring 27 in theory alone does not guarantee passing the subject — a student must also secure at least 7 out of 20 in internal assessment, giving a combined minimum of 33 out of 100. For Science, which carries a 70-mark theory paper, the minimum theory passing mark is 24 out of 70 and the minimum practical passing mark is 10 out of 30.
RBSE Class X Passing Marks at a Glance
| Total Marks (Component) | 33% Value | Minimum Passing Marks (Rounded) |
|---|---|---|
| 100 (Overall per subject) | 33.0 | 33 |
| 80 (Theory — Hindi, English, Mathematics, Social Science, Sanskrit) | 26.4 | 27 |
| 70 (Theory — Science) | 23.1 | 24 |
| 30 (Practical — Science) | 9.9 | 10 |
| 20 (Internal — most subjects) | 6.6 | 7 |
RBSE Grading System
RBSE Class X marks are converted to grades on a 10-point scale. Grades E1 and E2 denote a failing performance; only students earning Grade D or above (33 marks or more out of 100) are declared Pass in that subject. A student who clears the compartment exam will have their grade updated on the supplementary mark sheet to reflect the new marks.
| Grade | Marks Range | Grade Point |
|---|---|---|
| A1 | 91 – 100 | 10 |
| A2 | 81 – 90 | 9 |
| B1 | 71 – 80 | 8 |
| B2 | 61 – 70 | 7 |
| C1 | 51 – 60 | 6 |
| C2 | 41 – 50 | 5 |
| D | 33 – 40 | 4 |
| E1 | 21 – 32 | – (Fail) |
| E2 | 00 – 20 | – (Fail) |
Note: The CGPA shown on the RBSE Class X final certificate is calculated from the grade points earned across all six subjects. After clearing a subject in the compartment exam, RBSE issues a supplementary mark sheet; the updated CGPA is computed using the compartment marks in place of the failed subject’s original marks.
RBSE Class X Compartment Exam FAQs
Ques. Who is eligible for RBSE Class X Compartment Exam 2027?
Ans. Students who appeared in the RBSE Class X main exam 2027 and failed in one or two subjects are eligible for the compartment examination. Students who fail in three or more subjects are not granted compartment status and must repeat the full year as a regular student.
Ques. When will RBSE Class X Compartment Exam 2027 be held?
Ans. The RBSE Class X Compartment Exam 2027 is expected to be held in July–August 2027, approximately two to three months after the main board results are declared in May 2027. As of September 2026, the 2027 schedule has not been officially announced. Official dates will be published on rajeduboard.rajasthan.gov.in once RBSE releases the formal notification.
Ques. What are the passing marks for RBSE Class X Compartment Exam?
Ans. Students must score a minimum of 33% in the theory component and 33% in the overall total (theory + internal/practical) to pass. For subjects with an 80-mark theory paper, the minimum theory passing mark is 27; for Science (70-mark theory), it is 24. A high internal score cannot compensate for failing the theory paper — both components must be cleared independently.
Ques. What happens if I fail the RBSE Class X Compartment Exam?
Ans. If you fail the compartment examination, you will not be promoted to Class XI for the 2027–28 session. You have two paths forward: rejoin Class X as a regular student in the next academic year (2027–28), or appear as a private candidate in the next RBSE Class X main examination (March 2028) specifically in the subject(s) you still need to clear.
Ques. Is the RBSE Class X Compartment Exam syllabus different from the main exam?
Ans. No. The compartment exam syllabus is completely identical to the main board examination syllabus. No topics are removed, and the paper pattern — objective questions, short-answer, and long-answer sections — stays the same. Students should prepare the full Class X course content for the subject(s) in which they are appearing.
Ques. Can a student with compartment in two subjects appear for both at once?
Ans. Yes, and it is mandatory. A student with compartment in two subjects must appear for both in the same compartment session, as the two papers are scheduled on different days per the RBSE timetable. Clearing only one of the two subjects does not result in promotion for that cycle — both compartment subjects must be passed in the same sitting to be declared Pass.
Ques. What is the application fee for RBSE Class X Compartment Exam 2027?
Ans. The official fee for 2027 has not been announced yet. Based on the 2026 cycle, the fee is approximately ₹150 per subject for both regular and private students, with an additional ₹200 late fee if the application is submitted after the normal deadline. Confirm the exact 2027 fee at rajeduboard.rajasthan.gov.in once RBSE releases the compartment notification.
Ques. How do students get the RBSE Class X Compartment Admit Card 2027?
Ans. The RBSE Class X Compartment Admit Card 2027 will be available for download on the official portal at rajeduboard.rajasthan.gov.in approximately one to two weeks before the exam, expected in the first week of July 2027. Regular students can download it through the school or directly from the portal using their roll number; private candidates must download it independently using their registration number.
Ques. Can private candidates appear for RBSE Class X Compartment Exam?
Ans. Yes. Private candidates who appeared in the RBSE Class X main examination 2027 and received compartment status in one or two subjects are eligible. They must register themselves on the RBSE portal within the application window and pay the prescribed fee directly, without going through a school.
Ques. How does the compartment result affect the RBSE Class X mark sheet?
Ans. After passing the compartment exam, RBSE issues a supplementary mark sheet showing the updated marks for the cleared subject(s). The mark sheet indicates Pass (Supplementary) for that subject, and the CGPA is recalculated using the compartment marks. Students should retain both the original Class X mark sheet and the supplementary mark sheet, as many institutions require both documents for admission verification.
Ques. How many total attempts does a student get to clear RBSE Class X?
Ans. Students effectively get three attempts: the main board exam in March, the compartment exam in July–August (only for those who fail 1–2 subjects), and the following year’s exam as a regular or private student. There is no second compartment within the same academic year. If a student fails all three attempts, they must re-enrol in Class X as a regular student for a fresh academic session.
