Grading System of CBSE Class 10<\/strong><\/h2>\n

CBSE has determined that students\u2019 report cards would not carry a pass or fail grade. Therefore, the board exam committee has set aside 20 points out of 100 for internal evaluation. At the same time, the remaining 80 points are set for the use of objective criteria.<\/span><\/p>\n
