If your result shows “X”, don’t panic. This article will help you clearly understand what it means and what steps you should take next.
What Does ‘X’ Mean in II PUC Results?
In the Karnataka Board (KSEAB) result system, “X” stands for Exempted. This means the subject is not counted for pass/fail evaluation in this particular attempt.
- The student may not have appeared for that subject exam.
- The student may already have passed the subject in a previous attempt.
- The board may have granted exemption due to valid reasons (attendance/medical/administrative).

Is ‘X’ Considered Pass or Fail?
Important:
- “X” is NOT a Fail.
- But it is also NOT counted as a Pass for the current result.
- That subject will not be included in the total marks calculation.
How Does It Affect Your Final Result?
If one or more subjects show “X”, your final result depends on the remaining subjects.
- If enough subjects are passed → You may still get Pass / Class Result.
- If marks are low → You may get Third Class or need improvement.
Example: A student scoring 260/600 with some exempted subjects may still get Third Class.
What Should You Do If You See ‘X’?
- Step 1: Contact your college/PU lecturer for clarification.
- Step 2: Check if you were absent or eligible for exemption.
- Step 3: Verify your previous attempt results (if any).
- Step 4: If needed, apply for Supplementary Exam.
- Step 5: Use Revaluation / Retotalling if you suspect errors.
Supplementary Exam Option
If the exempted subject is important for your future studies or you want to improve your result, you can apply for the II PUC Supplementary Exams 2026. This gives you another chance to write the exam and improve your marks.
