Now papers of FBISE will be check through e-Marking System As they say to err is a human; to forgive, divine. We all do make mistakes apart from students; teachers also do errors because education system in Pakistan is based upon manual chinking of paper by teachers and faculty members. Hence, being a human there are lots of chances to make mistakes while paper checking.

In order to advance the paper chinking system, Federal Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education (FBISE) has decided to take an initiative based on e-marking system in paper checking by adopting modern technology to make sure 100% precision and transparency in the examinations.
