Announcing the results here in the morning, WBCHSE president Chiranjib Bhattacharya said that while the pass percentage among boys is 92.32, the same in the case of girls is 88.18.
East Midnapore district recorded the maximum pass percentage at 95.77 per cent. “A total of 58 examinees have figured among the top 10 rankers, out of which 35 are boys and 23 are girls. The maximum number of candidates among the top 10 rankers is from Hooghly district at 13,” the WBCHSE president said.
