BISE Rawalpindi 12th Class Result 2026: Check by Roll Number, SMS and Gazette

The Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education Rawalpindi will announce the 12th class result 2026 on Wednesday, 23 September 2026 at 10:00 AM, together with the other eight Punjab boards. If you sat the HSSC Part 2 annual examination from Rawalpindi, Attock, Jhelum or Chakwal, this is your board.

Rawalpindi is the second largest board in Punjab by candidate volume, after Lahore. This page has the direct portal link, all four checking methods, and two corrections that most other pages covering this board are getting wrong, including one about the passing mark that could genuinely worry you if you read it anywhere else first.

When will BISE Rawalpindi announce the 12th class result 2026?

BISE Rawalpindi will declare the 12th class result 2026 on Wednesday, 23 September 2026 at 10:00 AM on biserawalpindi.edu.pk. The date is fixed by the Punjab Boards Committee of Chairmen, which coordinates all nine boards so that no district gets its result before another. Last year the board declared its HSSC Part 2 result on 18 September 2025.

Position holders are named a day earlier. BISE Rawalpindi announces its toppers on 22 September 2026 at around 4:00 PM, before the general result goes live the next morning.

A note for Islamabad students

This trips up more people at Rawalpindi than at any other Punjab board, so it is worth stating plainly.

Islamabad schools do not come under BISE Rawalpindi. Federal capital institutions are affiliated with FBISE, the Federal Board. If your college is in Islamabad rather than in Rawalpindi, Attock, Jhelum or Chakwal, your result is on the FBISE portal, not this one, and checking Rawalpindi will only waste time on result day.

What to expect from the portal on result morning

Rawalpindi is the second largest board in Punjab, so the candidate pool here is large and the portal load on result morning is heavy.

Between 10:00 and 11:00 the site carries one of the heaviest loads in the province, and it has a history of being slow or unresponsive during that first hour. This is not a fault at your end. Hundreds of thousands of candidates and their families hit one server inside a few minutes.

Plan around it rather than fighting it:

• Send an SMS to 800296 the moment the result is declared and note your marks.
• Open the portal later in the day for the detailed subject wise card, once the first rush has cleared.

Method 1: Check your result by roll number

Open biserawalpindi.edu.pk, find the latest result announcement, select HSSC Part 2 Result, enter the roll number printed on your slip, and submit. Your name, your father's name, your college, your subject wise marks and your grade appear on screen. This is the only method that gives you a complete breakdown.

Step by step

• Open the official site directly. Type biserawalpindi.edu.pk into the address bar yourself. Result day brings a flood of forwarded links on WhatsApp, and some lead to imitation pages built to look like the board's own.
• Find the latest result announcement. On result morning the board puts a link on the homepage.
• Select HSSC Part 2, not Part 1. Both sit close together on the results page, and picking the wrong one is a common mistake in a hurry.
• Type the roll number exactly. Digits only, no spaces, no dashes, no letters in front. A trailing space is the single most common reason a valid roll number returns nothing.
• Save what appears. Screenshot it, and download the PDF if one is offered. Detailed marks sheets reach colleges offline within a few weeks, and admission forms later in the year will ask for them.

What your Rawalpindi Board result card shows

Your name, your father's name, registration number, institution, the marks obtained in each subject against the total for that subject, your aggregate out of 1100, and your grade. It will not show your rank in the board. Position holders are announced separately.

If biserawalpindi.edu.pk will not open

• Stop refreshing. Every refresh is a fresh request that adds to the load and pushes your own place further back in the queue.
• Switch networks. Move between WiFi and mobile data. Sometimes the bottleneck is at your end rather than the board's.
• Wait thirty minutes. The first rush clears fast and the portal usually settles by around 11:00.
• Send an SMS. The gateway runs on separate infrastructure and typically works when the website does not.

Method 2: Check your result by name

If your roll number slip is lost, use the search by name option on the board's result page. Enter your full name and your father's name exactly as they appeared on your admission form, and you will get a list of matching students with roll numbers and total marks.

• Spelling decides everything. The database holds the spelling your college submitted, not the one you use today. Muhammad and Mohammad are separate entries. If nothing comes back, try the alternative spelling.
• You get a list, not a result. At a board this size a common name returns a long list. Confirm your row using your college name and your father's name together, never the name alone.
• You still need the roll number. Name search returns the total only. Take the roll number from the list and run a normal search for the subject wise marks.

Method 3: Check your result by SMS on 800296

Open your messaging app, type only your roll number, and send it to 800296. Your total marks and pass status come back within seconds. It works on Jazz, Zong, Telenor and Ufone.

At a board this size, SMS is worth more than it is elsewhere. When hundreds of thousands of people try to load the same page at once, a text arriving in ten seconds beats a portal that will not respond for twenty minutes.

Four things decide whether it works:

• Send the roll number and nothing else. No "12th", no "result", no name, just the digits.
• Check for a stray space before or after the number. That is the usual reason nothing arrives.
• Keep two to five rupees of balance on the line.
• Use 800296. Sending a Rawalpindi roll number to another board's code returns nothing.

SMS gives you the total and pass status. For the subject wise breakdown you will need the portal or the gazette.

Method 4: Download the BISE Rawalpindi gazette 2026

The gazette is the complete official result file for the whole board. BISE Rawalpindi publishes it in PDF on biserawalpindi.edu.pk, normally within a few hours of the announcement.

The Rawalpindi gazette is unusually detailed. It is arranged institution by institution rather than purely by roll number. Each school appears with its own code, and under it the number of candidates enrolled, cancelled, appeared, passed, failed and absent, with a pass percentage for that school. The full file also carries district wise and subject wise breakdowns, unfair means cases, and cancelled or unallotted roll numbers.

For a student, that last part matters. If your roll number returns nothing at all on the portal, checking whether it appears in the cancelled, not eligible or fee defaulter lists in the gazette will often explain why, and tells you exactly what to raise with the board.

Once you have the PDF, use Ctrl+F on a computer or Find in Page on a phone. Search by roll number rather than name.

Districts covered by BISE Rawalpindi

BISE Rawalpindi was established in October 1977 and covers the Pothohar region.

District | Also includes | Note Rawalpindi | Murree, Kahuta, Gujar Khan, Taxila | Largest share of candidates Attock | Hassan Abdal, Hazro, Fateh Jang, Pindigheb | Second largest Jhelum | Dina, Pind Dadan Khan, Sohawa | Chakwal | Talagang, Choa Saidan Shah, Kallar Kahar |

Islamabad institutions are not included. Federal capital colleges are affiliated with FBISE, so if your college is in Islamabad, check FBISE and not this board.

What the 2025 result tells you about 2026

BISE Rawalpindi declared its HSSC Part 2 annual result on 18 September 2025, and its position holders were honoured at a ceremony at the board headquarters.

One figure is worth carrying into 2026. In the second annual (supplementary) examination 2025, of the 19,782 candidates who reappeared, only 31.9% passed. That is the clearest possible reminder that the supplementary route is far harder than the annual one. If you can clear everything in this first attempt, do, because the second attempt is a steeper climb.

One caution before reading too much into any percentage. A pass rate reflects examination conditions, candidate composition and college resourcing across a whole region. It is not a measure of how capable any individual student is. Your own card, not the board average, is what matters for you.

The grading system for 12th class 2026

This is the section that trips up the most students at this board, because several Rawalpindi pages are printing the wrong figure, so read it slowly.

For 12th class in 2026, the passing mark is 33% in each subject, and the old A1 to F grade scale still applies. You need 33% per subject, not per total, and in science subjects theory and practical are counted separately.

The confusion comes from a real policy change. The Inter Board Committee of Chairmen notified a rise to 40% in October 2025, but it is being phased in, not switched on everywhere at once:

• It applies to 9th and 11th class from 2026.
• It reaches 10th and 12th class only from 2027.

So the 40% rule reaches this batch next year, not this one. Any Rawalpindi page telling you that 40% is mandatory for your 12th class result this year is repeating the wrong figure.

Grade | Marks A1 | 90% and above A | 80% to 89% B | 70% to 79% C | 60% to 69% D | 50% to 59% E | 40% to 49% Pass | 33% minimum in each subject F (Fail) | Below 33%

Position holders at Rawalpindi Board

BISE Rawalpindi announces its position holders on 22 September 2026 at around 4:00 PM, a day before the general result, and honours them at a ceremony at the board headquarters. The names also appear in the result gazette.

Positions are awarded on total marks, with separate lists for the Pre-Medical, Pre-Engineering, ICS, I.Com and General groups. From the second largest candidate pool in Punjab, competition for a board position here is among the toughest in the province. Your own result card will not show a rank, so the official list is the only place that confirms it.

If your result is lower than you expected

Two formal routes exist, and they solve completely different problems.

Rechecking

Apply through BISE Rawalpindi within roughly fifteen days of the announcement. The fee in recent sessions has been in the region of Rs 1,200 per paper, paid through a bank challan. Confirm the current figure and deadline in the board's own notification.

Be clear on what rechecking is before you pay. The board verifies that your marks were added correctly and that no question was left unmarked. It does not re-evaluate the quality of your answers. If the examiner judged an answer worth four marks out of eight, that judgement stands.

There is one Rawalpindi specific check worth doing first. Before applying for rechecking, look at whether your roll number appears in the gazette's lists of cancelled, not eligible, fee defaulter or slip not issued roll numbers. If it does, rechecking is the wrong process, and you need to take that issue to the board directly.

Supplementary examination

If you did not clear one or more subjects, you can sit the supplementary and reappear only in those subjects. As the 2025 figure above shows, it is a harder exam than the annual, so prepare for it properly.

Your academic year is not lost. Once you clear the outstanding paper it is recorded as passed on your HSSC record.

What your 12th class marks actually decide

Your HSSC Part 2 marks are not a standalone score. The complete Intermediate result is calculated out of 1100, combining Part 1 and Part 2, and this year's marks are added to what you already banked in Part 1.

This is the number that college and university merit lists read, and for medical and engineering admissions it carries real weight alongside the entry test. Strong Part 2 marks lift your aggregate at the moment it matters most. If your marks fall short of what you hoped, the rechecking and supplementary routes above exist precisely because this happens at scale, and neither costs you your academic year.

Result day: what to do and what to avoid

• Find your roll number slip before 23 September. If it is lost, your college office holds the record.
• Ignore any page that says 40% passing for your 12th class result. For this batch it is 33%.
• If your college is in Islamabad, check FBISE, not Rawalpindi.
• Send an SMS to 800296 first, then open the portal later in the day.
• Select HSSC Part 2, not Part 1, on the results page.
• Screenshot everything the moment it loads.
• If your roll number returns nothing at all, check the gazette's cancelled and not eligible lists before assuming the site is broken.
• Never pay anyone claiming they can check or improve your result. The board has no paid fast track.

Frequently asked questions

When will the BISE Rawalpindi 12th class result 2026 be announced?

On Wednesday, 23 September 2026 at 10:00 AM on biserawalpindi.edu.pk, together with all nine Punjab boards. Position holders are named a day earlier, on 22 September at around 4:00 PM.

What is the BISE Rawalpindi SMS code for the 12th class result?

800296. Send only your roll number, with no other text, to that number. It works on all networks.

Are the passing marks for 12th class 2026 33% or 40%?

33% in each subject. Several Rawalpindi pages wrongly say 40%. The 40% rule was notified in October 2025 but reaches 12th class only in 2027, and applies to 9th and 11th class from 2026.

Do Islamabad schools come under BISE Rawalpindi?

No. Islamabad institutions are affiliated with FBISE, the Federal Board. Only Rawalpindi, Attock, Jhelum and Chakwal come under BISE Rawalpindi.

Which districts come under BISE Rawalpindi?

Four districts: Rawalpindi, Attock, Jhelum and Chakwal, covering the Pothohar region. Islamabad is not included.

Can I check my result without a roll number?

Yes. Use the search by name option or the gazette PDF. Both return only your total marks, so you will still need the roll number for the subject wise breakdown.

How do I check my Rawalpindi Board result by roll number?

Open biserawalpindi.edu.pk, find the latest result announcement, select HSSC Part 2 Result, enter your roll number exactly as printed with no spaces, and submit.

My roll number returns nothing on the portal. What should I do?

Check whether it appears in the gazette's lists of cancelled, not eligible, fee defaulter or slip not issued roll numbers. If it does, contact the board directly rather than applying for rechecking.

What are the total marks for 12th class at Rawalpindi Board?

The complete Intermediate result is out of 1100, combining HSSC Part 1 and Part 2.

What is the rechecking fee at BISE Rawalpindi?

Around Rs 1,200 per paper in recent sessions, with applications accepted for roughly fifteen days after the result. Confirm the exact fee and deadline in the board's notification.

What happens if I fail one subject?

You can sit the supplementary examination and reappear only in that subject. Your academic year is not lost, and you continue into the next step while clearing it.

When was BISE Rawalpindi established?

In October 1977. It is the second largest board in Punjab by candidate volume, after Lahore.

Conclusion

The BISE Rawalpindi 12th class result 2026 arrives on Wednesday, 23 September at 10:00 AM, together with the rest of Punjab. Have your roll number ready, send it to 800296 before you try the portal, and open the site later in the day for your detailed card.

Two things set this page apart. First, if your college is in Islamabad, this is not your board, FBISE is, so do not lose time here on result day. Second, and more important, for 12th class in 2026 the passing mark is 33%, not the 40% that several pages covering Rawalpindi are wrongly applying to this batch. The 40% rule is real, but it reaches you in 2027, not this year.

Whatever any website tells you, this one included, the result card BISE Rawalpindi issues you through your college is the final word. Verify against it, and best of luck.
