CBSE class 10 date-sheet released: Adequate gap between main papers

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) date-sheets for board exams of classes 10 and 12 have been announced by Union Education Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal on Tuesday. The exams for both the classes will be conducted offline amid the COVID-19 pandemic, starting from May 4, 2021.

The CBSE class 10 board exams 2021 will be conducted between May 4 and June 7.

Good news for class 10 students is that they have been given enough gaps to study between the exams of main subjects, including English, Mathematics, Science and Social Studies.

For example, between English and Hindi papers, students have a three-day gap while between Science and Mathematics, they have a five-day gap.

However, if you have opted for regional languages and optional subjects such as French, Hindustani Music or National Cadet Corps, then you might find the study breaks troubling.
