Analysis of the 2020 Science Class 10 Question Paper:

During the test, 30 questions were distributed into three sections A, B, and C.

In the paper, every question was mandatory. A few questions in each section had internal choices as well.

4. Does the CBSE offer more than one set of questions in Class 10 Science?

On the basis of analysis of the previous year's paper, a total of 3 sets will be available: Set A, Set B, and Set C. While each section features standard questions, the case study portion of the paper was lengthy, and there is no correlation between it and the sample papers. Students were given case studies from polynomial, linear equation chapters in the sample papers, however, one of the case studies from the paper was from the triangle chapter, which might have confused the students who did not practice well. Additionally, instructions for case studies differed as well, while in the sample papers, candidates were allowed an 8 out of 10, but in the paper, the candidates were given a 4 out of 5.
