CBSE Reverts to Single-Board Exam Format

Now that the schools are functioning normally, CBSE has planned on reverting to the single-board exam format from 2022-23 onwards. This format will be similar to the one followed in pre-pandemic times.

Earlier, it followed the dual board policy, where the syllabus was divided into two parts which were the basis of two board exams. These board exams were conducted in November-December and March-April, respectively.

However, due to the Covid-19 situation, it had to be canceled and the students were evaluated based on their internal assessments, projects, and practical exams.

This year onwards, the exams will be conducted from April 26th onwards and the 2nd term board exam will carry more weightage than the 1st term exams.

Objectives of the CBSE Syllabus 

Some of the objectives of the CBSE syllabus are:

● The CBSE syllabus aims to help students get clarity about the course framework and understand the important topics.

● The syllabus plays the role of a guide to the students, too. This is because students can refer to it regularly and check the progress they make.

● The CBSE class 11 syllabus contains information on projects, practicals, and assignments that the students need to complete.

● Being aware of the syllabus of class 11 helps students understand the examination format and the marking pattern and stay well-prepared for the final board exams.

● Before you start preparing, make sure you have all the required study material.

● Use the NCERT books for class 11 to practice and prepare first and refer to the NCERT solutions whenever you need to.

● Use various reference books to practice as many questions as possible.

● To better understand the question pattern, do refer to the previous year’s question papers. This will also help you understand the difficulty level of the questions and work on the topics accordingly.

● Mock tests are very useful when preparing for the class 11 final exams. This will help you know the topics that need your attention more.

● Take short breaks during study time. This helps you stay fresh and energized all day. Do pay attention to your water intake and your diet. Make sure you eat healthily and stay well-hydrated.
