Hyderabad: About 55,000 students from the state, studying under CBSE and ICSE boards, are gearing up to write their Class 10 exams from Tuesday.
Teachers said CBSE students will have to be doubly careful given the confusion still surrounding the two-board exam policy. They have to attempt all subjects and can write improvement in three core subjects later,” said Simi Nagi, principal, Delhi International School, Kompally. In subjects like Maths, it is important to show or prove their work, and not just concentrate on getting to the answer,” said Mir Hafeezuddin Ahmed, principal, Nasr Boys School.
“Even now, at this stage, students are assuming that they can attempt four out of five subjects now, and one later, but that is not the case. There is no change in exam pattern for ICSE students. “The most important step that many students forget is to read the entire question paper. Keywords are a must to score marks.
