New Delhi: Students continue to wait for information regarding CBSE Term 1 board exams and it is expected that the date sheet 2022 for Classes 10 and 12 Term 1 examinations will be released soon. The board is preparing to set up examination centres for conducting the Term 1 Board Examinations offline from November 15.

The date sheet will be made available on the official website cbse.gov.in. The CBSE has also informed that it would not be conducting any main examination of Class 10 and 12 on the same day, this includes 5 main subjects of Class 10 and 19 main subjects of Class 12.

The board had decided to divide the exam into two phases due to the covid-19 pandemic. This year due to the deadly second wave of Covid-19 the exams had to be cancelled and the CBSE wants to avoid such a situation again.

• Schools will also have to conduct the practicals for Term 1 and there may not be any external examiner for the exams.
• Each term will include 50 percent of the rationalised syllabus. Students can download the revised syllabus from the board's academic website. The revised syllabus of CBSE Class 10th and 12th includes a list of chapters they need to study board exams.
• The question papers in the CBSE term 1 board exam will have multiple-choice questions (MCQ), including case-based MCQs and Assertion-reasoning MCQs.
• The duration of the examination will be 90 minutes.
