The report also indicated a full release of results in 2025, with all 1,931,467 candidates receiving their scores surpassing the 1,842,364 results released in 2024.

 

Further analysis of the 2025 results showed that 117,373 candidates (6.08 per cent) scored 250 and above, a significant increase from 77,070 (4.18 per cent) in 2024 and 56,736 (3.73 per cent) in 2023.

 

Similarly, 565,988 candidates representing 29.3 per cent scored 200 and above, compared with 439,961 (24 per cent) in 2024 and 355,689 (23.36 per cent) in 2023.

 

Despite these gains, the majority of candidates – 1,365,479 (70.7 per cent) still scored below 200 in 2025. However, this figure showed a slight improvement from 76 per cent in 2024 and 76.64 per cent in 2023.

 

A year-by-year comparison underscores the fluctuating nature of performance trends. For instance, in 2021, only 168,650 candidates (13 per cent) scored 200 and above, while in 2016, the number was much higher at 568,847 (34 per cent).
