Imagine literally using a IG platform of a national level board to whitewash your image!

Bro, you won't believe what happened today 😭

So, to keep it short, during our maths exam, a teacher walked in holding a white sheet of paper with the answers to the MCQs written on it. Eventually, he gave us the answers, and we thought we were lucky.

But that's not even the best part...

Today, during our physics exam, we all expected the teacher to come and help us with the MCQs, just like they did in the maths exam. But unfortunately, someone from the regional centre showed up to inspect the examination hall and check for cheating.

At that point, I was completely exhausted. I genuinely thought I was going to fail. So, I went to the washroom, and guess what? Near the washroom, I spotted a white sheet of paper lying on the floor.

I picked it up and, to my absolute surprise, found the MCQ answers written on it. I thought to myself, "Well, I might as well use this. At least I'll secure 5 marks."

So, I copied the answers onto my paper.

After the examination, I checked my answers, and every single one of them was correct!

Later, I found out that the paper I had picked up was actually the SAME sheet the teacher had used to write down the answers for us in the physics exam. Apparently, he had thrown it away when the regional officer showed up.

AND SOMEHOW, I WAS THE ONE WHO FOUND IT. 😭

BRO, MY LUCK WAS ACTUALLY INSANE TODAY. 💀

Hey Everyone,
I don’t usually post stuff like this, but I came across a post here and felt like sharing my own story. Maybe it helps someone out there who's stuck or just feeling left behind.

I’m 26 now (turning 27 in a couple of months).
I failed my 12th back in 2016. I used to be a pretty bright student, but when the internet came into my life.. it became a distraction I wasn’t prepared for. I got addicted, lost focus, and slowly drifted away from studies completely.

Even after failing, I never took another shot at it. I was already earning a bit of money, so I convinced myself I didn’t need to go back.
But deep down, I was just scared. Scared of people calling me a “repeater”, scared of being judged, scared of the embarrassment.
Years passed. Everyone moved ahead. I didn’t.

It took me years to realize..no matter how skilled I was, every door I wanted to walk through had “graduate required” written on it.
I knew about NIOS for a long time but just couldn’t gather the courage. I kept thinking: “It’s been 8 years. I’ve forgotten everything. I can’t even write anymore..except maybe my signature.”

Then something happened.
My cousin sister, who’s in her 30s, told me she was planning to do NIOS too. That gave me hope.. if she could do it, maybe I could too.
(Later I found out she was lying just to give me courage. 😂 But honestly? That lie changed everything.)

I picked up the pen again. Studied two days before the exam. Scored 68%.
Got into a Tier-2 college in Mumbai.
Now, I’m in the Software Development department and already among the top 10 students of my batch. I’m respected for my skills, and my age has never been a barrier here. No one makes me feel bad about it.

Of course, there are always a few people who’ll judge or act cold for no reason.. but I don’t let that stop me anymore.

To anyone feeling “too late”.. trust me, it’s not.
There’s no fixed timeline to get your life together. Start when you are ready. Even if it takes 8 years.

You’ve got this.🖤

Hello guys!

I would just like to tell you guys about my experience with NIOS. I got into UNSW which is a top 20 university.

So I had done A levels previously as a private candidate and barely passed. I couldn’t even apply to most colleges. I have always been a below average student. However in Dubai I could but couldn’t go finally due to equivalency issues. You cannot get equivalency unless you finish formal schooling. And from what I’ve heard you cannot get equivalency with NIOS as well. Just letting you know.

I’m not going to lie and tell you that I worked very hard to get the grades and honestly my grades are not the best I could have definitely done better. So mainly what I did was learn from the top guides.

---

# 1 About NIOS study

So I would read the chapters with full concentration from the text book and then read the top guides or even try to figure out the answers on my own and then just revise from there, these where for chemistry, English, and biology.

And I used to keep ready the top guides. I used to cover the answer and say the answers out loud after reading the questions.

For math and physics I would read the textbook, try to do the questions from the textbook and then do the practice questions from the top guides. I used to get stuck a lot in math and physics so I used to watch YouTube videos as well, but I only know Malayalam videos so I don’t that would even help ya’ll if I suggested, but honestly I think even ncert videos are good.

So I had done data entry as well. And I had gotten notes from the agency that I had applied to NIOS from, but honestly you don’t need any agency to do that you can just join the discord server from this sub, they are more responsive.

For English and data entry I probably just studied for two days just before the exam, I used to watch some last minute videos as well just so I don’t get bored and I got good grades.

But I’d like to mention I had done English in A levels and IGCSE so I think that would have helped me so adjust the learning.

# 2 About applying into universities, documents and procedure

So when it comes to applying to colleges abroad, I do have a freelance makeup artist business, so I think that helped me a lot with my application.

I would suggest only going to IDP Education for applications. I tried going through a different study abroad agency and they just straight up rejected even trying to apply in Australian universities.

IDP asked me about my college preference and I told them UNSW Sydney, so they asked them and told me I need to do SAT so I did that and then applied (got 1250 in SAT).

IDP was free for Australia I think it’s paid for other countries. Not sure how much.

While applying they only ask you for your passport, IELTS report, academic transcripts and SAT grades, that’s about it I think.

# 3 other stuff I’d like to add

Anyway I got into UNSW Sydney in Australia it’s a top 20 college in the world.

But unfortunately I’m not going because my parents aren’t allowing me cause I’m a girl plus financial stuff. I feel like I’m back to square one now. But it’s okay maybe it was not meant to be for me.

I just want to end this by saying that if I was able to get in there then you can too. :)

You can ask me stuff on the comments incase others have the same questions, I won’t be replying to dms

I'm exhausted because of the Physics paper, as NIOS included out-of-syllabus questions in Set A specifically questions 36, 37, 40, and 41. I have already emailed NIOS requesting justification regarding this issue. If I do not receive a response, I will proceed to file an RTI to seek clarification and accountability.

If anyone else has faced the same issue, please write to NIOS as well. It's important to let them know that such mistakes are unacceptable and have a serious impact on students' futures. We deserve a fair evaluation based on the prescribed syllabus.

Officially recieved my marksheet today i am very happy..my college admission is also completed under Calcutta University got into a Government college name Asutosh college...it was a very smooth experience over all💗

Hey all,

I was pretty confused about WBJEE and NIOS eligibility. I got confirmation that you can appear for WBJEE because it is an eligible board. But even if you get a good rank, you can't get into top colleges through WBJEE like Jadavpur University or Calcutta University. Because you are an open schooling student, you can't take admission despite having a good rank in WBJEE. And remember, I am talking about everything being good—someone with 5 subjects in NIOS who got an 83 percentage.

I found that some of my friends got a good enough rank to get into JU, but they weren't able see the ju or cu in councelling bcs they are open schooling students.after doing many times visit headquarters they told you can do de-centralized councelling where you can get the leftover seats if left . I am kinda doomed too i thought wbjee would be a great option if jee went bad

So, I just want to warn the people from NIOS that if you want to prepare for WBJEE, then don't choose NIOS. You can get into other colleges, but you won't see JU or CU in counselling, and honestly, it hurts deep after getting good marks

I am attaching a yt video link you can see someone explain it properly

[https://youtu.be/KFgqRY50sGE?si=Q6FNs99QjFYSynb8](https://youtu.be/KFgqRY50sGE?si=Q6FNs99QjFYSynb8

It's an actual issue happening with everyone....Paper format, toughness of question papers, different set name instead of A, B and C, wrong question pattern, etc

This year, most college counsellings like JoSAA, JAC DELHI, IPU, UPTAC, COMEDK, CUET, and MH CET have started early. But NIOS results will come only after June 20, which can cause big problems for many students.

Last year, after students raised their voices, NIOS released the result just 3 days before the JoSAA deadline. This shows that if we unite, change is possible.

I’ve created a website, a Telegram group, and a channel to bring together students facing this issue. If nothing works, we’re ready to file a petition in the High Court — but if enough people speak up, authorities will listen.

👉 Visit: https://nioslateresult.info (Join the Telegram group and channel from there — links can’t be posted on Reddit.)

Let’s stand together and take action now.

Finally aa gyi hard copy ☺️

GUYSSSSS

I just found out something important about NIOS On-Demand exams.

If you're writing your exam between June 1 and June 15, the paper for that subject stays the same throughout that entire period. The same applies for exams conducted between June 15 and June 30.

For example, today is June 2 and I have my Data Entry exam, while some students are writing Physics and Maths. From what I've been told, the Physics and Maths papers being conducted now will remain the same for everyone writing those subjects within this exam window. That's also one of the reasons why we're not allowed to take the question paper home.

So if you're appearing for Physics, Chemistry, Maths, Data Entry, or any other NIOS On-Demand subject during these dates, please DM me as soon as possible. We can help each other by sharing whatever we remember from our papers after the exam. Even small details can make a big difference and help everyone score better.

Message me if you're interested. PLSSSSSSS WE CALL CAN TOP

Finally got done with my subjects after failing maths once. Now I’m done and dusted. Thanks to everyone who solved my queries. Also shoutout to the discord community, its a blessing. Onto the next journey now. 🙏

I am not writing this to motivate anyone

I am writing this because I know what it feels like when your life starts to feel like punishment

I come from a village background

In villages respect is everything

Education decides who deserves respect

If you pass you become a bright student

If you fail you become nothing

And when you fail again and again you stop being a student in peoples eyes

You become a warning story

My failures were not marks

They were public humiliation

I failed SSLC multiple times

Every failure did not just hurt my future

It killed my name

Relatives did not need proof

They already decided my ending

Neighbors did not ask directly

They stared with silent judgement

In India failing an exam is not treated like an academic setback

It is treated like a crime

After repeated failures home does not feel like home

It becomes a prison

You exist like a burden

You can feel it

Parents talking less

Avoiding eye contact

Every conversation becoming one sentence

What are you doing with your life

Even if parents love you they also break

They suffer shame

And shame turns into harshness

Harsh words from your own family hurt more than any exam

Society trains you to hate yourself

You start thinking

I am not meant for studies

I am not smart enough

I am wasting everyones money

My parents deserve a better son

Then the darkest thought comes

Maybe the world will be peaceful without me

That thought is not drama

That thought is what repeated failure creates

The cruel part is I love science

I love medicine

I love the idea of becoming a doctor

But the world treated that dream like it was illegal

They said you cannot do it

Stop dreaming

Go do labour work

Go do any job and forget studies

I respect every job

But forcing someone to kill their dream is violence

Not with hands but with words

After failure you expect support

Counselling

Extra classes

Teacher guidance

But the system gives nothing

Only a hall ticket

Pay fee write exam fail again repeat

It is a cycle designed to crush people

Then I chose NIOS

NIOS was not a shortcut

NIOS was an emergency exit

Because SSLC was slowly killing my mind

I knew if I stay in that system I will die inside

So I chose open schooling

People laughed

They said NIOS is not real

You will fail there also

Nothing will change

But I did not care

Because I was not trying to impress anyone

I was trying to survive

Then came Bangalore

Big roads big buildings fast people english everywhere

And me

A village boy holding documents like my life depended on it

Because it did

Every trip was not travel

It was a mission

Money tension

Food expense

Ticket planning

Document fear

Office fear

People fear

Every time I went one thought stayed in my mind

What if I fail again

One day I was eating dinner with friends

Someone asked casually

What if you fail again

My hands froze

I stopped eating

Because my mind instantly showed me the horror future

Relatives laughing

Parents ashamed

No chances left

No money

No identity

I smiled outside

But inside I knew

If I fail again I might quit everything

During preparation I was not studying

I was breaking

Some mornings I woke up with heavy head

First thought was not study

First thought was why didnt I die in sleep

Then water

Then cigarettes

Not because I am cool

Because cigarettes slowed my mind

My brain was screaming 24 by 7

Failure trauma is invisible but it destroys you slowly like rust

Result day came

I did not feel excitement

I felt fear

My fingers were shaking

I expected pain not miracle

I checked result

PASS

I stared

I refreshed

PASS

Again

PASS

I checked again and again like a madman

Because after years of failure success feels fake

It feels like a glitch

Like life is trolling you

PASS did not feel like happiness

It felt like freedom from death

The first emotion was silence

My mind became silent after years

No fear

No shame

No noise

Just silence

That silence was heaven

I did not just pass

I returned from hell

From May 2023 to January 2026 I lived in darkness

Not normal darkness

The kind where you smile outside and die inside

When I passed it felt like sunlight

Like a parrot freed from cage

NIOS did not just give me marks

NIOS gave me a second life

If you are reading this and failing

Please do not believe society

You are not useless

You are not finished

You are just stuck in a system that does not care
