'Impossible to cover 50% syllabus in 2 months': CBSE Class 10, 12 students on term 2

NEW DELHI: With less time to prepare for the CBSE term 2 exams 2022, CBSE Class 10, 12 students have been demanding to cancel the examination. The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) had earlier clarified that there will be no change in the exam pattern for the CBSE Class 10, 12 term 2 board exam. However, students say it's “impossible” to complete 50% syllabus in two months as the CBSE term 2 exams are scheduled to be held in March-April.

The CBSE has bifurcated the syllabus into two terms for this academic year. CBSE term 1 exam for both Class 10, 12 was conducted from November to December 2021 and the board followed multiple-choice questions (MCQ) format. The CBSE term 2, however, will have subjective-type questions.

The CBSE Class 10, 12 term 2 question paper will have different formats such as case-based/ situation based, open-ended- short answer/ long answer type. Term 2 paper will be of 2 hours duration.

Addressing CBSE officials, a student said, “I request you to give us at least two more months for our preparation. It is almost impossible for us to complete such vast syllabus in two months and also we don't have access of offline classes. We need your support.”
