TNDGE Result Previous Year Statistics

Looking at past results helps you read this year’s numbers in context. The table below shows the HSE +2 (Class 12) pass percentage trend over the last five years, along with how boys and girls performed each year.

The HSE +2 pass percentage has climbed steadily, from 93.76% in 2022 to 95.20% in 2026 — a gain of almost 1.5 percentage points. Girls have outperformed boys every single year, and the gap held at about 3.8 percentage points in 2026. The numbers tell you the board’s overall results have been improving, but the boys-girls gap has stayed wide.

The SSLC (Class 10) stream shows the same upward pattern. The pass percentage rose from 90.07% in 2022 to 91.39% in 2023 and 91.55% in 2024, and reached 94.31% in 2026. Girls have led boys in SSLC too, year after year.

Details Mentioned on the TNDGE Marksheet 2026

When you open your result online, check every detail carefully. If you spot a spelling mistake or a wrong figure, report it to your school right away so the board can fix it before the original marksheet is printed. Your online statement shows the following.

• Your name and your parents’ names
• Registration number and roll number
• Exam name and stream (SSLC / HSE +1 / HSE +2)
• Subject-wise marks (theory and practical, where they apply)
• Total marks and the marks you scored
• Result status — pass, fail, or eligible for supplementary
• Your school name and code

Remember, the online marksheet is provisional. The original marksheet from your school is the document you use for college admission and other official work.

TNDGE Grading System 2026

The Tamil Nadu board reports your performance as marks out of 100 in each subject, and many schools also map those marks to a grade. The grade gives a quick sense of your level. Here is the common grade band used by the board.

Grades are a handy summary, but colleges and the board mainly look at your actual marks. So focus on the marks printed on your statement.

TNDGE Passing Criteria & Grace Marks

To pass a TNDGE exam, you have to clear every subject. The minimum is straightforward, and the board adds a small grace-mark cushion in some cases. Here is what you need to know.

• You need at least 35 out of 100 in each subject to pass.
• For subjects with theory and practical parts, you must clear the combined minimum the board sets for that subject.
• If you fall short in one or two subjects by a few marks, the board may add grace marks to help you pass.
• If grace marks are not enough, you can take the supplementary exam for those subjects.

If you pass every subject, you are declared "Pass". If you miss the mark in one or more subjects, you are marked eligible for the supplementary exam, and you can clear those subjects later in the year.

TNDGE Revaluation, Retotalling & Answer Sheet Photocopy 2026

If you feel your marks are lower than expected, you have a clear path to get them checked. The board lets you see a scanned copy of your answer sheet first, then apply for retotalling or revaluation. The smart order is photocopy first, then decide.

• Answer-sheet photocopy: The HSE +2 window (May 12–16) and the SSLC window (May 22–27) are already over. The scanned copy lets you see how your paper was marked.
• Retotalling: The board adds your marks again to check for any totalling error.
• Revaluation: A fresh examiner re-checks your answers. The HSE +2 revaluation window runs June 5–8, and the SSLC window runs June 17–19, 2026.
• Fee: Revaluation costs around Rs 505 per subject for HSE +2, and the board usually processes requests within 10–15 days.

Apply for the photocopy first whenever the window is open. Once you see your evaluated sheet, you can decide whether revaluation is worth it. If your marks change after revaluation, the board issues a corrected marksheet.

What After the TNDGE Result 2026?

Once you have your result, your next step depends on which class you cleared and what you want to study. Here is a simple roadmap.

• If you cleared SSLC (Class 10): Pick your HSE +1 stream — Science, Commerce, Arts, or Vocational — based on your interest and marks.
• If you cleared HSE +1 (Class 11): Move into HSE +2 and start preparing for the board exam and any entrance tests you plan to take.
• If you cleared HSE +2 (Class 12): Apply for undergraduate courses. Engineering aspirants register for TNEA counselling, and other students apply to arts, science, and professional colleges.
• If you did not clear a subject: Apply for the supplementary exam and clear your backlog in July.
• If your marks look low: Use the photocopy and revaluation route before you finalise your plans.

Collect your original marksheet and transfer certificate from your school, because most colleges ask for them at admission. Keep a few photocopies and scanned copies ready so you are not stuck during counselling.
