The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) will conduct the first part of the board exams, i.e., the Term 1 Exam November-December 2021. The pattern of the exam will be totally different than the previous years.

While everyone is waiting for the CBSE sample papers, the board has shared a special study plan for the term 1 exams in order to compensate for the delay in sample question papers release. This study plan mentions tips and guidance on how to finish your syllabus and start effective revision before the first part of the CBSE Class 10 Board Exam 2021-2022.
CBSE Class 10 Syllabus Timeline:
→ Complete your term 1 syllabus by 25th September 2021
→ Complete your term 2 syllabus by 5th November 2021
CBSE Class 10 Term 1 Revision Timeline:
→ From the end of September to the 1st week of November
(approximately 30-35 days from now)
Important points to consider during revision:
Follow the “Student Study Hours" concept
CBSE suggests overall 6 hours of self-study (apart from online classes plus tests/Internal Assessment assignments) to maintain productivity. Students should spend equal amounts of time for self-study, i.e., 2 hours on every main subject (Maths, Science and Social Science). Two hours can be devoted to the study of English or Social Science in rotation as these subjects have a lot of chapters to cover.
1 DAY = 2 hours Per Main Subject | |
Hours (daily) | Class 10th |
2 hours | Mathematics |
2 hours | Science |
2 hours | Social Science/English |
