CISCE Improvement Result 2026: Important Dates

ICSE and ISC Improvement Result 2026: What Was Declared

The CISCE Improvement Examination allows students who cleared their Main Examination but want to raise their marks in specific subjects to reappear and improve their score, instead of waiting an entire year. For the 2026 session, CISCE expanded this facility, letting eligible candidates appear for the Improvement Exam in up to three subjects, compared to a maximum of two subjects in earlier years.

• For ICSE Class 10, the Improvement Examination was conducted from June 15 to June 30, 2026. A total of 5,321 candidates appeared, across 13,032 paper-wise entries.
• For ISC Class 12, the exact Improvement Exam dates were not confirmed in the sources available for this article. Please refer to the official CISCE notice for exam-period details.
• Both results have now been declared and can be checked online using the candidate's Unique ID and Index Number.

Higher-of-Two-Marks Rule Explained

CISCE has confirmed that for every subject a candidate appeared in for the Improvement Examination, the council compares the marks scored in the Main Examination with the marks scored in the Improvement Examination, and the higher of the two is treated as the final score. This means a student's overall result cannot get worse by attempting the Improvement Exam - if the new attempt scores lower, the original Main Exam marks are retained.

Eligibility for the CISCE Improvement Examination

Based on available official updates, the Improvement Examination is meant for students who have already passed their ICSE or ISC Main Examination 2026 but wish to raise their marks in specific subjects. Precise eligibility conditions (such as minimum marks required in other subjects) were not detailed in the sources reviewed for this article; students should confirm exact eligibility criteria from the original CISCE notification on cisce.org.
