The wait is finally over. The 12th Class Result 2025 has been announced for all Punjab boards, and students across the province can now check how they performed in this crucial stage of their academic journey. For many, this result is more than just numbers—it represents months of effort, late-night study sessions, the pressure of expectations, and the hope of building a brighter future.
This year’s results highlight both achievements and challenges. Some boards recorded excellent pass percentages, proving that students were well-prepared, while others showed lower success rates, reminding us that education in Punjab still faces hurdles that need attention.
Here is the official pass percentage for all Punjab boards in the intermediate part 2 (12th class) examinations:
Board | Pass Percentage | Class |
---|---|---|
Dera Ghazi Khan | 74.86% | 12th |
Faisalabad | 73.71% | 12th |
Sargodha | 66.40% | 12th |
Multan | 64.25% | 12th |
Bahawalpur | 63.93% | 12th |
Gujranwala | 63.10% | 12th |
Lahore | 60.86% | 12th |
Sahiwal | 58.92% | 12th |
Rawalpindi | 54.12% | 12th |
The board-wise percentages reveal some interesting patterns. Dera Ghazi Khan Board has once again shown remarkable performance by securing the highest pass rate in Punjab at 74.86%. Close behind is Faisalabad Board with 73.71%, proving the academic strength and consistency of students in that division. These two boards stand out as the top performers of 2025.
In the middle range, boards like Sargodha (66.40%), Multan (64.25%), and Bahawalpur (63.93%) achieved respectable results. These outcomes show that a majority of students were able to pass, though there is still space to push these percentages higher.
Gujranwala (63.10%) and Lahore (60.86%) also landed in the average category. Lahore’s performance in particular surprised many, as it is often considered the educational hub of Punjab with access to some of the best institutions and teachers. Expectations were higher, but the results fell short of what many believed the city could deliver.
At the lower end of the spectrum, Sahiwal (58.92%) and Rawalpindi (54.12%) recorded the weakest outcomes. Rawalpindi’s result is concerning, as nearly half of its students were unable to clear the examination. This indicates a need for stronger exam preparation, better teaching support, and perhaps more focus on academic counseling.
The variation in pass percentages is not surprising, as several factors can influence student performance:
Educational resources: Access to quality schools, libraries, and labs differs between cities and rural areas.
Teacher quality: Boards with better-trained and more experienced teachers often produce stronger results.
Exam preparation culture: Some regions emphasize test preparation more than others, which helps students score higher.
Socio-economic conditions: Students from well-supported families usually have more access to tuition centers, internet resources, and study material.
Exam paper differences: Even though the overall standard is similar, sometimes paper patterns affect student performance in certain regions.
Understanding these factors helps explain why one board achieves a 74% pass rate while another struggles to cross 55%.
For students, the 12th class result is one of the most important milestones of their lives. These marks will decide university admissions, eligibility for professional programs, and in some cases, scholarship opportunities.
High achievers can confidently aim for competitive programs like MBBS, Engineering, IT, and Business.
Average scorers should not feel discouraged—there are plenty of strong degree programs and career paths available that don’t necessarily require top marks.
Students who couldn’t pass should remember that failure in one attempt is not the end of the road. Supplementary exams provide a chance to improve, and alternative study options are always available.
The key is to treat this result as a stepping stone, not the final word on one’s abilities. Many successful professionals struggled at some point in their academic lives but went on to achieve greatness with persistence and hard work.
While students reflect on their own outcomes, the boards with lower pass percentages also need to take action. Improvements can be made by:
Such steps would not only help raise pass percentages but also improve the overall quality of education in Punjab.
The 12th Class Result 2025 is a blend of success stories and areas that need attention. DG Khan and Faisalabad Boards have emerged as the top performers, while Rawalpindi and Sahiwal will have to work harder in the coming years to raise their pass rates.
But beyond the statistics, this result is about the determination of students who spent months preparing, often under immense pressure. Every number represents a story—of struggle, ambition, and resilience.
For students, whether the result brought joy or disappointment, remember that your future is not defined by one exam. What truly matters is your commitment to keep learning and moving forward. The real journey begins now, and with the right mindset, every student can build a path toward success.
