The New CBSE Pattern Changes the Whole Math of Studying Starting in 2026, CBSE Class 10 students get two board exams instead of one. Exam 1 runs mid-February to early March and is compulsory — every student sits it, in every subject. Exam 2 runs in mid-May and is optional: you can use it to […]

Most state boards release their Class 10 and 12 date sheets between November and January, for exams held from February through April. If you’re checking in August and there’s no timetable yet, that’s completely normal — boards are still finishing syllabus coverage, registrations, and exam centre planning. This guide covers the release pattern of the […]

The single most important rule to remember: you must score at least 33% in the theory paper AND at least 33% in internal assessment separately — scoring 33% overall is not enough on its own. This is the point that trips up the most students and parents every year, so let’s clear it up first. […]

Since the 2025-26 session, CBSE runs two board exams a year for Class 10, and the traditional “compartment exam” for that class no longer exists as a […]

Under CBSE’s new twice-a-year board exam system, only students who pass the first Class 10 exam (Feb–Mar 2026) can re-attempt up to 3 subjects in the second exam (May 2026) to improve their score — and CBSE keeps whichever of the two scores is higher.

The stated goal is to move away from rote learning towards conceptual understanding, real-life application and skill-based learning. […]

CBSE has finalised the syllabus for the 2026-27 academic session for Class 10 and Class 12, and the biggest confirmed change is in Class 10 Social Science — two Political Science chapters have been dropped, taking the subject’s total chapter count from 24 to 22. For every other subject, the rationalised, competency-based syllabus that CBSE […]
