Preparing
Six weeks is enough to pass one subject well. Start with the sample paper and past papers, and take help from the subject teacher — schools usually run revision classes.
RESULTS · SUPPLEMENTARY
CBSE supplementary (compartment) exam
A second chance in the same year: who qualifies, when it happens and how to prepare.
IN SHORT
A Class 12 student who does not pass a subject can take CBSE's supplementary exam, usually held in July, and save the year. For Class 10, the optional second board exam in May now gives students a chance to improve or pass. Schools register students; check CBSE's circular for the year's rules.
