CBSE Confirms No Change in Class 10 Passing Criteria for 2027 Exams
The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has confirmed that the Class 10 passing criteria for the 2026-27 academic session will remain unchanged. Students must achieve an overall minimum of 33 percent marks, combining theory and internal assessment scores. This clarification follows confusion after the release of the curriculum and assessment framework, where some interpreted a requirement for separate minimum marks in theory and internal assessments. CBSE also stated there will be no changes to question paper design or assessment patterns.
