Syllabus Relaxation Eases Exam Pressure
This year, JKBOSE had announced a 15% syllabus reduction for Class 10, 11, and 12 exams following recommendations from the Directorate of School Education Kashmir (DSEK) and Jammu (DSEJ). The decision addressed disruptions caused by delayed academic sessions, extreme heat waves, torrential rains, cloudbursts, and floods.
According to a notification by JKBOSE’s Director of Academics, students were required to attempt 85% of the syllabus, which would be evaluated as 100% marks, effectively providing a 15% relaxation for all eligible students in the Kashmir division, Jammu winter zones, and the Union Territory of Ladakh.
The announcement comes as JKBOSE continues efforts to ensure fair evaluation and ease academic pressures for students facing challenging circumstances this year.
