The CBSE Class 10 Board Exams had been cancelled on 14 April this year, in view of the pandemic.

Earlier on Friday, CBSE had announced the Class 12 results, with 99.37 percent of the total candidates having passed the examinations.

How Are the Marks Calculated?

According to the evaluation criteria released by CBSE on 1 May this year, the marks for Class 10 will be calculated out of a total of 100 marks, out of which 20 marks will be based on internal assessment, and the remaining 80 marks will be based on the performance of the student in the various exams conducted by the school throughout the academic year.

Of these 80 marks, 10 marks will be based on periodic/unit tests, 30 marks will be based on half-yearly/mid-term exams, and 40 marks will be based on pre-board exams.

If a candidate is not satisfied with their result, they will be allowed to sit for the exams on a later date, to be decided by CBSE.
