CBSE 10th Board Exam 2021: Changes in the pattern of CBSE 10th exam 2021 for Social Science, Science and Maths

CBSE has made several changes in the question paper pattern of the 10th annual exam 2021. Option questions (MCQs) have been removed from the mathematics topic for 2020-21 10th board exam. Examiners will have to answer the question of one mark in very few words. Two marks questions in science subject have been removed. Now only one, three and five marks questions will be asked. There will be only small questions (very short questions) instead of alternative questions in the social sciences paper too. These changes were made due to the lack of preparation of students in lockdown.

Earlier, the board has changed the question paper pattern of class 12th. This change has been made due to the lack of proper preparation of the students during the lockdown. The number of short questions (very short questions) has also been reduced from 20 to 16. Six questions have been increased in science and four less questions will be asked in mathematics.

Similar pattern of Mathematics in 10th and 12th: For the first time, the board has made 10th board question paper on the question paper pattern of CBSE 12th board. This will help students studying mathematics in plus two. This would be the first time that the pattern of the Class 10th question paper would be similar to Class 12th. The basic and standard math patterns will remain the same. The board has made it clear that the questions will be easy.
