Despite being an MCQ-only exam, students found the CBSE class 10 exam to be ‘lengthy’ or time-consuming. Based on the reactions of students, the exam was found to have many questions which needed long calculations. Many questions were based on activity while some needed application and observation from the students’ side which might seem to be tough for some
“Many questions were based on the activities given in the NCERT book. Though most of the questions were simple and easy, some students did find the paper lengthy,” said Anshu Arora, principal, Amity International School, Sector 43, Gurgaon.

“The difficulty level of the question paper was high as there were many indirect /HOTS questions. Many questions involved application and interpretation of the concepts and also may have confused the students,” said Ameeta Mohan, principal at Amity International School, Pushp Vihar
Most questions were based on concepts rather than theory, said Anupama Mehtani, PGT Biology, Shiv Nadar School, Gurugram, “It was a moderately difficult paper. Most of the questions were inference based and focussed on conceptual understanding rather than recall. Part B of the paper was more challenging than usual, with quite a few numericals in the Physics section. Overall, the paper was of a good standard and students with a good grasp over concepts would certainly do well,” said Mehtani.
“The teachers felt that 2-3 questions were tricky, yet the overall paper was easy to comprehend, if the child had thoroughly focused on their NCERT books. Overall, the objective paper focused on testing the conceptual knowledge of the students,” said Seema Kaur, principal, Pacific World School.
