CBSE Board Exams Split In 2 Terms Reason Behind Better Results: Schools

A total of 92.7 per cent of students cleared the Class 12 exam, and 94.40 per cent passed the Class 10 exam.

The rise in pass percentage in board exams as against the pre-pandemic scores can in part be attributed to the 2021-22 academic session being split into two terms, according to school principals.

In a first such instance, the academic session was divided into two terms last session.

While the first term exams were conducted during November-December, the second term exams were held in May-June.

"Students had more time and comparatively lesser syllabus to cover, peruse and revise in the days and preparatory leaves preceding the commencement of terminal exams," Pallavi Upadhyaya, Principal, DPS RNE, said.
