Controller of Examinations Zahid Mian provided insights into the outcomes and addressed issues of cheating and malpractice. There were 267 cases of cheating identified, resulting in over 60 first information reports (FIRs) being registered.
Zahid Mian commented, “The pass percentage in the matriculation exams is 69.75%. We are pleased with the performance of our students, particularly the girls, who have shown exceptional results. Our efforts to uphold the standards of examination integrity have been robust, as evidenced by the registration of FIRs in cases of malpractice.”
The results reflect a significant gender disparity, with girls outperforming boys in both the science and arts groups. This trend highlights the academic achievements of female students and the continuing efforts to promote education among all demographics.
