How to Calculate Your CBSE Class 10 2025 Percentage?

Once you get your marksheet, calculating your overall percentage is simple. CBSE gives marks out of 100 for each subject, and typically 5 subjects are considered for percentage calculation.

Step-by-Step Method:
  • Add the marks of your top 5 main subjects (typically English, Hindi, Maths, Science, Social Science)
  • Divide the total by 5
  • The result is your percentage

Example:

Subject Marks
English 95
Hindi 88
Maths 91
Science 89
Social Science 93

Total = 95 + 88 + 91 + 89 + 93 = 456
Percentage = 456 ÷ 5 = 91.2%

🔁 If you’ve taken a 6th subject, CBSE considers the best 5 subjects automatically for calculating your result status (pass/fail). But for calculating your own percentage, use the top 5 scoring subjects.
