As many as 3,17,789 students bagged first division (60% plus), 69,597 secured second division (50% to 60%) and 26,895 students secured third division (35% to 50%).

It was the Prakasam district %that emerged with the highest percentage of 78.30% while the Anantapur district came last with a 49.70 pass percentage. When it comes to Telugu medium students, they performed poorly (43.97%) when compared to students from English medium students (77.55%).

The highest pass percentage of 91.10 was reported at AP Residential Schools, whereas government schools posted the lowest of 50.10%.

All Hindi medium students cleared the public exam, followed by 94.02% Odia medium, 87.04% Tamil, 73.75% Kannada and 70.12% Urdu medium.

Talking about supplementary exams, the minister shared that they would be conducted from July 6 to 15. From June 13, special classes will be conducted for those students who weren't able to pass the exam till the completion of the supplementary examinations.

Also, schools and parents were forewarned about advertising marks of students' ranks. He said that strict action will be taken against them.
