Here’s what to expect from the date sheet:
Gap Days: The term 1 exam is going to be conducted in a span of 4 to 8 weeks according to reports, hence the students will get a lot of gap days to prepare, however, nothing is confirmed yet.
Timing: As stated earlier, the exam will start from 11.30 instead of 10.30 due to the winter season and students will get 20 minutes of reading time instead of 15 minutes.
Major Subjects: The exams of major subjects will begin on November 24. As per reports, to give the students the best learning, CBSE has decided to divide subjects into 2 parts – Major and Minor.

The students are going to give physical exams after a very long time. Many of them are still worried about the safety protocols and what other precautions they have to take while taking the exams. The crucial times of Class 10 and 12 are back with physical exams but it was extremely necessary to test the fundamental knowledge students have not been gaining for the past 1 and half years. With offline exams, it is expected that offline classes will also run smoothly from now on.
