The government will “try its best” to follow the tradition of publishing the results of the Secondary School Certificate (SSC) and equivalent exams within 60 days after the exams end, says Education Advisor Chowdhury Rafiqul Abrar.

“If this is the tradition – I’m sure it is – we’ll try our best to publish (the results) accordingly.”

He spoke to the media after visiting the Motijheel Government Boys High School exam centre on Thursday, the first day of the exams.

The written test for the SSC and equivalent exams will end on May 15. If the tradition of result publication is maintained, students will receive their results in the second week of July.
