The highest-ever 99.63 students passed the class 12 `evaluation' of the Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education (MSBSHSE), as per the results declared on Tuesday.

The passing percentage was 99.63 per cent, 8.97 percentage points higher than the last year, he added. Also, of 66,871 students who repeated Class 12, 63,063 or 94.31 per cent cleared the evaluation, Patil said.
