PSEB Punjab Board 10th Result 2022: Punjab School Education Board (PSEB) on Tuesday declared the result of the Class 10 examination. The overall pass percentage was 97.94 percent with girls bagging the top three positions.
Nancy Rani of Ferozepur district topped the state scoring 644 out of 650 marks (99.08 per cent). The second position was secured by Dilpreet Kaur of Sangrur district. Although Kaur scored the same as Rani, her rank was decided based on PSEB’s age formula. A younger candidate takes precedence over an older candidate while deciding ranks. Rani is younger than Kaur and hence declared first in the state. Komalpreet Kaur, who secured 642 marks (98.77 percent marks), came third.
Students in rural areas performed better than their urban counterparts. While 99.1 per cent of rural students passed the Class 10 Board exam, 98.75 percent of urban students cleared the exam.
