If you will visit the official website of CBSE (Here is the
link) there's a high chance that you will get confused with all the information present out there but you don't have to worry because we got your back.
In this article, I will be summarizing all the changes CBSE has
brought in a simple manner including all the
important PDFs of all the streams (Science, Commerce and Arts)
and will be mentioning some other things as well, which you might have to take
care of as a student.
Things Implemented in revised syllabus (2020 - 21):
So if you take a look at the initial PDF of CBSE from the link given
above then most likely you will get confused and to tell you honestly I have
read the whole PDF two times and there's nothing there you have to be worried
about.
Most of the information present there is for schools, principal and teachers.
The only thing you need to know is the change in the grading system
and reduction in the syllabus which I am going to cover in this article
thoroughly including all the necessary PDFs for you.
Changes in the grading system:
This year CBSE has updated the structure of assessment scheme or in simple
language your "Grading System".
So it's actually different for both class 11th and class 12th. Class 12th
being a little complicated one, so I will explain it first.
In the class 12th assessment scheme, the board will conduct the examination
and will rank all the passed candidates and allot them the grade in the
following order:
Grade | Candidate |
---|---|
A - 1 | Top 1/8th of passed candidates |
A - 2 | Next 1/8th of passed candidates |
B - 1 | Next 1/8th of passed candidates |
B - 2 | Next 1/8th of passed candidates |
C - 1 | Next 1/8th of passed candidates |
C - 2 | Next 1/8th of passed candidates |
D - 1 | Next 1/8th of passed candidates |
D - 2 | Next 1/8th of passed candidates |
So now it may sound confusing to you, so let me explain it with a simple example. Suppose 70 students give board examination this year and only 6 students failed and everyone else passed.
So the top 8 students who have scored the highest will be allotted A - 1, next 8 students will be awarded A - 2, and the same way other next 8 students will be awarded with B - 1 and in this manner, this goes on till D-2.
Now for Class 11th, it's simple, your grade will be allotted based on your marks in the following manner:
