It was 73.38 per cent last year while it has been 85.34 per cent this year.

In the last five years however, year 2011 had scored the highest result of 86.05 per cent while it was 83.43 per cent in 2010.

However, Rebello admitted that there was less number of students appearing for SSC examination last year.

While 18,509 students appeared this year, only 14,200 had appeared last year.

According to Rebello, one of the reasons for more students passing this year could be the Board policy of leaving one or two day gap for studying for difficult subjects.
