To view scores after the 2026 mid-year exam, students typically need to follow these steps: log in to their school's online portal, navigate to the exam results section, and access their personal score report. This process is designed to ensure secure and efficient score retrieval, with most schools providing real-time access to scores within a few days of the exam.

The reason for this streamlined approach is rooted in the increasing reliance on digital platforms for educational purposes. According to a report by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), 97% of public schools in the United States used digital platforms for educational purposes in 2020. This shift towards digital education has necessitated the integration of online score access as a standard practice. Additionally, the convenience of online score retrieval allows students to monitor their progress and make informed decisions about their academic performance. For instance, a study published in the Journal of Educational Technology & Society found that online access to exam scores can lead to improved student engagement and motivation.
