Federal Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education (FBISE) has announced a new grading system for Matric and Inter exams. The marks system is abolished, and now students will be given GPA on a scale of 1-5. Exact marks will not be shown on the result cards of the students.
A notification is issued in this regard by FBISE. The notification reads It is notified for information of all concerned that FBISF will communicate in a phased manner results of and levels in the grading system instead of absolute marks in order to stop the culture of race of marks. In this regard, it has been decided that the grading system for classes 9th and 11th will be implemented from Annual Examinations 2023 and for classes 10th and 12th from Annual Examinations 2024. Initially, the results will be communicated by mentioning absolute marks, grades, and GPA. Subsequently, the results of the Annual Examination 2025 will be communicated only in Grades, GPA, and Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA).
