CBSE Refutes Rumors Of Syllabus Cuts, Open-Book Exams For Classes 10, 12

CBSE Board clarified there will be no syllabus reduction or open-book exams for 2025 board exams.

CBSE swiftly addressed circulating news that falsely claimed regional officer Vikas Kumar Agrawal announced upcoming changes to the CBSE exam pattern at a summit in Indore. The reports suggested a 15% syllabus reduction for Classes 10 and 12 and the introduction of open-book exams in subjects like English literature and social science from 2025, supposedly to reduce student stress and align with the New Education Policy’s holistic approach.

However, CBSE has issued an official clarification, stating that there will be no reduction in syllabus for the 2025 board exams, nor any introduction of open-book exams. This clarification follows reports from multiple media outlets suggesting changes in the 2025 exam structure, including an increase in internal assessment weightage.

“In reference to the news published in various online news portals and newspapers regarding the reduction of 15% of the curriculum and conducting open book exams for selected subjects under the CBSE Board Examination 2025 for classes 10 and 12, please note that the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has not made any changes to its examination system or internal assessment system, nor has any official notification been issued in this regard. Therefore, the Board denies the aforementioned news,” said Vikas Kumar Agrawal, secretary at CBSE’s regional office in Bhopal, in an official statement.
