The Bihar Board of Open Schooling and Examination (BBOSE) has set 31 October as the final date to apply for Transfer of Credit (TOC). The process began on 1 October. Students who failed examinations of other recognised boards can transfer marks from their previous attempts.
Under this scheme, marks in a maximum of two subjects can be transferred, saving students from reappearing in those exams. However, applicants must register for a total of five subjects, including the ones they want transferred. They can then take exams in the remaining subjects to complete their academic qualification.
Interested students must complete the application within the set timeline.
This TOC window is a narrow concession for students who failed in other recognised boards. By allowing transfer of marks in up to two subjects, BBOSE spares them from repeating those exams, but keeps a five-subject registration rule. The 31 October deadline leaves little time for eligible students to gather documents. The real constraint is that only two subjects can be transferred, so students with failures in more subjects gain nothing. Those who miss this date will have to wait for the next academic cycle, unless BBOSE extends the window.
