Numerous students across India are grappling with the fallout from the Central Board of Secondary Education's (CBSE) re-evaluation process, which has been marred by technical issues in its On-Screen Marking (OSM) system. Students like Anvi Sharma from Pune and Rohan Mehta from Bengaluru are at risk of losing admissions and scholarships at foreign universities due to discrepancies in their final marks. Complaints include blurred answer-sheet scans and unchecked responses, leading to unexpectedly low scores that jeopardize both international opportunities and eligibility for prestigious Indian institutes like the IITs. As deadlines for admissions approach, many students are shifting their focus to domestic options, where their board marks are critical for meeting the mandatory 75% aggregate needed for IIT admissions. In response to the ongoing issues, CBSE has extended the deadline for re-evaluation applications to June 7.
