For CBSE class 10 students, results will be prepared on the basis of an “objective criterion” to be developed by the Board. Any candidate who is not satisfied with the marks allocated to him/her on this basis will be given an opportunity to sit in an exam as and when the conditions are conducive to hold the exams. Last year too CBSE had devised a new scheme for class 10 students.
The decision was taken in view of the increase in COVID-19 cases in the country. States like Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Delhi, Gujarat, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, and Rajasthan are the worst hit by the pandemic. Registering a steady increase for the 35th day in a row, India recorded 1,84,372 new cases in the last 24 hours, pushing the total tally of cases to 1,38,73,825, while the active cases surpassed the 13-lakh mark. The death toll increased to 1,72,085 with 1,027 new fatalities, the highest since October 18, last year.
Schools have been shut down in 11 states due to the second wave of the pandemic. For many classes, schools have not reopened since the initial shutdown of March 2020. At least four State education boards scheduled to hold examinations in April have announced the postponement.
“Unlike State Boards, the CBSE has an all-India character, and therefore, it is essential to hold exams simultaneously throughout the country,” said the Ministry. However, no guidelines were given for State board exams throughout the country, as had been demanded by some States.
Class 10th Students have got some added benefits in building their basics for top competitive exams in India like JEE and NEET to fulfill their aspirations and get into top IITs, NIT, and medical institutions. Since they haven’t appeared for the board exams they should focus more on exam-oriented preparation to get equipped with competitive exam behavioral skills to fulfill their dreams.
Students should utilize this opportunity to prepare well for their upcoming JEE and NEET 2021 Exams.
