1) The performance in the Annual H.S. examination will have 80 per cent of weightage and 20 per cent of weightage from the performance in Quarter End Examinations/Internal Exams.

2) Students' grades are based solely on their performance in the yearly high school examination, which carries 100 per cent weight.

Students will be graded according to which of these two weighting schemes provides the best results for the candidates. The final grade will be determined by the highest score.

This decision was made in response to the conclusion to reduce the syllabus in response to the Covid-19 pandemic to reduce student stress and examination pressure. For the CHSE Board Exams 2022, the 70 per cent syllabus will be considered out of the 100 per cent weightage or the 80-20 per cent weightage, whichever is greater.

Students have mixed reactions to the council's decision, however, most seem happy. Many students stressed 50-50 per cent weightage but the new two schemes mentioned above are final.

CHSE Odisha Exam 2022 is slated for Plus 2 students on April 28, 2022. The exams will happen in offline mode, but further confirmation is needed about the Odisha Plus Two Exam Date 2022. Around 3 lakh students will appear for the CHSE Odisha Plus 2 Exams 2022.
