CBSE Exam Negative Marking: Many students related to the CBSE board exam often have questions in their mind, such as whether there is negative marking (deducting marks for wrong answer) in the board exam. This question has been answered by CBSE's Controller of Examinations Dr. Sanyam Bhardwaj. He clarified that no marks are deducted for wrong answers in the board exam. Students get marks only on the correct answer or correct information, which are called value points.

During this, some students also asked questions related to the exam. Here are the answers of Controller of Examinations Sanyam Bhardwaj to the questions of the students...

Question- I am a student of class XII. Can good marks be obtained by preparing even now? - Kartikeya Singh

Answer- See, the principle of "Jab Jago Tab Savera" can convert any of your work into success. Now the need is that in the remaining time, you should focus only on the preparation of the exam. Prepare for the exam by concentrating your mind. You will be successful.

Question- What strategy should be adopted to solve the question paper of any subject?- Arpit
Answer- It would be appropriate to make a strategy to solve the question by looking at the sample question papers of the subject before the exam. If the question paper is of 70 marks and 35 questions have been asked in it. Then about two minutes should be set for each mark. If a question is of three marks, then it is appropriate to give a maximum of six minutes to solve that question. It would be better if you answered the questions sequentially. If you do not know the answer to a question, then it would be better to avoid wasting time on it. You should solve the next questions. Do not spend time on that.

Question- Does the board also do negative markings (deducting marks for wrong answers) in any subject?- Aradhana
Answer- There is no provision for negative marking in the board exam. The student is given marks only on the correct information which we call value points. Negative marking happens in those exams where the best candidate has to be selected. Only then marks are deducted for mistakes.

Question- I have written very long questions in the English paper for class 10th. What should I do to avoid this in the future, so that enough time is left for other questions? - Shakti Kumar
Answer- 15 minutes are given in the exam to understand the question paper. Using that, plan in your mind how you will start writing the answer. Give only the prescribed time for each question. After completing the question paper, revise it and make corrections if necessary. Write value points in your answers.
