A Higher Secondary Certificate (HSC) student who was initially failed by mistake but later declared passed by the state board is now facing difficulties in securing admissions. While some colleges have informed her about no available seats, others have not responded even after a week.

When HSC results were announced on May 25, Sushmita Kori, a student of RD National College in Bandra, was initially marked as eligible for re-exam. According to her mark sheet, she had received only 18 out of 100 in Bookkeeping and Accountancy, a core subject. On June 6, Kori requested a verification of her marks. Despite this, the board responded that her results were correct based on their evaluation of her answer paper. However, Kori persisted in pursuing her case.
