Students, who have received the remark ‘needs improvement’ on their marksheets, at the Class X results declared on Friday, are eligible to answer the supplementary examination.
“Students with the remark ‘needs improvement’ are eligible to answer June 2018 examination, irrespective of the number of subjects in which they have got the above remark,” Goa Board chairperson Ramkrishna Samant said.
