For students who don’t have access to smartphones, CBSE will provide results through an interactive voice response system (IVRS).

This year, the term 2 exams for classes 10 took place between April 26 and May 24.
This year, the Board divided the academic year into two parts — term 1 and term 2. Both term exams were held in offline mode this year. The difference, however, was that term 1 questions were objective in nature and students were given an OMR sheet to fill their answers. However, term 2 questions were subjective in nature.
In 2021, exams could not be conducted in a traditional manner due to an increase in Covid cases. So, as an alternate method of assessment, 20 marks were based on internal assessments which were conducted by schools, 10 marks were allotted to periodic/unit tests, 30 marks were allotted to half-yearly exams, and 40 marks were allotted to pre-board exam scores.
This year, unequal weightage will be given to students’ performance in Term 1 and Term 2 exams. CBSE has accorded 30 per cent weightage to the Term 1 theory exam held in November-December last year and 70 per cent weightage to the Term 2 theory exam conducted in April-May this year. However, practical exams in both terms have got equal importance while arriving at final results.
