CBSE Class 10th Social Science Exam Analysis
Richa Pandey, a student from VidyaGyan Sitapur, shared, “I particularly found the subjective question in Section D on the sustainability of development from Economics quite interesting. We had discussed the same topic in class, and a similar question appeared in our pre-board exam, which made me feel well-prepared and confident.”
Pratibha Shinghal, Social Science Educator (TGT) at JAIN International Residential School (JIRS), Bengaluru while analysing the CBSE Class 10 SST paper said, “It covered nearly 90 per cent of the syllabus, and no questions were beyond the prescribed curriculum. The multiple-choice questions were straightforward and easy to answer. The paper did not include high-order thinking or competency-based questions.
