CBSE 10 Maths

The most dreaded exam for class 10 students – Mathematics – is just a week away. CBSE will hold the class 10 maths board exam on Thursday, March 21, 2023. While on one hand mathematics can guarantee you 100% marks, and on the other hand, it is the topmost reason of exam stress among students. However for the first time, there will be two different maths papers, namely basic and standard. And the sole purpose behind CBSE giving students these two options is to lessen their burden.
