Jagran correspondent, Meerut. According to the new circular issued late evening on February 24 by the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), important guidelines related to the structure of the question paper and answer writing of Class 10 Science board exam have been announced.

In order to ensure the quality of evaluation and clarity of the answer sheet, the Board has divided the question paper into three different parts, Section A (Biology), Section B (Chemistry) and Section C (Physics).

CBSE has given the freedom to the students that they can solve all the three sections of the question paper in any order. For example, A-B-C, B-A-C or C-B-A. However, the Board has clearly instructed that the answers for each section should be written in the space prescribed for that section.

The most important instruction is that if the answer to any section is found written in any other section, it will not be evaluated. The board has advised to take special care regarding this, so that students can be saved from unnecessary loss of marks.

Avoid writing in a disorganized manner

Apart from this, after completing each section, students have been instructed to leave enough space before the next section and to mention the section clearly in the answer sheet. The board has also said that avoid mixing answers or writing in a disorganized manner and complete questions from one section at a time sequentially.

Solve each section systematically

VK Mishra, Principal of Dewan Public School, Meerut, asked the students to take the exam with a calm mind, take care of time management and solve each section systematically. The school administration has appealed to the parents and students to understand these instructions thoroughly before the examination.
