According to official data, 48,805 candidates had registered for the examination, of whom 48,623 appeared. A total of 42,228 students successfully cleared the exam, reflecting a steady performance trend across categories.

Category-wise performance shows sharp contrasts

The data underscores a strong showing by regular candidates, while pass percentages remain comparatively lower in non-regular and compartmental segments.

Merit list sees close competition at the top

MBOSE also released the merit list alongside the results, highlighting a tightly contested top bracket. Wangaal Lama secured the first rank with 585 marks, followed by Vishal Kumar with 576 marks.

Several ranks witnessed ties, reflecting minimal score differences among high achievers. Notable performers include:

• Prajukta Roy and Prinita Das (Rank 3, 575 marks)
• Samdi Mukhim, Nathanael Mantre Laloo and Wandarihun Lyngkhoi (Rank 4, 572 marks)

Schools from Shillong and nearby districts featured prominently in the top ranks, indicating strong academic performance from institutions in the state capital region.

Girls outperform boys overall

Gender-wise analysis shows female candidates slightly outperforming male students overall. While boys marginally led in the Regular-1 category with a 93.97% pass rate compared to girls’ 92.84%, the trend reversed in Regular-2, where girls recorded 80.81%, ahead of boys at 80.60%.

However, in categories such as Non-Regular and Private, male candidates posted higher pass percentages, pointing to varied performance patterns across segments.

The 2026 SSLC results reflect consistent academic outcomes with improved overall success rates, even as disparities across categories continue to persist.
