CBSE guidelines for students choosing subjects in class 11th and 12th

Currently the CBSE board examinations for class 10th and 12th are being conducted around the country. The results for the examination are likely to be out in the month of May. After completing the 10th class, students have to choose a combination of subjects that they want to pursue in class 11th and 12th. This year onwards, CBSE has implemented a lot of changes in alignment with NEP, 2020 that students need to know about. Previously, the subject choosing criteria was extremely rigid. However, now students will get the opportunity to choose from somewhere 110 subjects. A new group called group S has been introduced that will carry subjects that are going to be skill-based. There are 39 skill-based subjects that have been introduced by CBSE. It is mandatory for students to choose at least five subjects. It is totally up to the student if they want to choose an extra subject as well. Students must also choose at least one language between Hindi and English.
