SSC Board Challenge 2026

Board challenge — officially called rescrutiny — is the process of asking your education board to re-check an SSC answer script. The board does not re-evaluate the answers; it verifies that every answer was marked, that the marks were added correctly, and that the marks were entered correctly on the OMR sheet.

Applications run from 11 August 2026 to 17 August 2026. The window normally opens the day after the SSC result is published and stays open for about seven days. Always confirm the exact dates from your board’s official notice.

The fee is BDT 150 for each paper. If you challenge four papers, the total is BDT 600. Bangla and English have two papers each, so challenging both papers of a subject costs double.

From a Teletalk pre-paid SIM, send: RSC <space> first three letters of your board <space> roll <space> subject code to 16222. You will receive a PIN with the fee amount. Then send: RSC <space> YES <space> PIN <space> contact number to 16222 to confirm.

Yes. Write the subject codes separated by commas in the first SMS, for example RSC DHA 123456 101,102,107,108. The fee of BDT 150 is charged for every code you include.

No. The board challenge application is processed only through a Teletalk pre-paid SIM. Post-paid Teletalk, other operators, bKash, Nagad and online payment are not accepted for the first SMS. Borrowing a Teletalk SIM is allowed — only the contact number in the second SMS needs to be yours.

The rescrutiny result is usually published Within 45–60 days of application. Boards publish a “Changed Result Only” PDF and send an SMS to the contact number given during application.

Open your board’s website, download the changed-result PDF and search your roll number, or use the result checker on this page. Applicants whose result changed also receive an SMS from the board.

It means your result did not change. Boards publish changed results only, so an absent roll number confirms that the re-check found no error and your original grade stands.

It is possible but rare. Rescrutiny corrects addition and entry errors in both directions, so the published list occasionally shows a lower GPA when an earlier total was inflated. In the vast majority of changed results the grade improves.

No. The rescrutiny fee is a processing charge and is not refunded, whether or not your result changes.

No. Board challenge is a re-check, not a re-evaluation. Examiners do not award new marks for the content of your answers; they only confirm that existing marks were counted and recorded correctly.
