Passing Marks for Karnataka 2nd PUC 2026 — What Changed This Year

Here is the thing — the passing criteria for Karnataka 2nd PUC changed for the 2025–26 cycle, and many students are using the old threshold. The minimum passing mark per subject is now 30% (down from 35%), and the minimum aggregate is 33%. Both thresholds were revised before Exam-1 began.

For an 80-mark theory paper, the minimum pass mark is 24. For a 70-mark theory paper, the minimum pass mark is 21. Theory and practical must be cleared independently — a student who scores very high in practical cannot compensate for a theory failure. A student who scored 23 out of 80 in a theory paper in 2026 would fail that paper even if their practical marks are excellent, because both components are evaluated separately under KSEAB rules.

The aggregate 33% rule means your total marks across all subjects must meet this threshold independently of individual subject scores. Students checking the 2nd PUC Result 2026 Karnataka should verify both conditions — subject-level 30% and overall 33% — before concluding they have passed or failed.
