it was extremely easy.many questions were similar from past yesr papers.best paper so far.looking to score cent per cent.
It was very tough compared to last year. last year question paper includes questions from all chapters, but this time most of the question are from 3d and vectors, so many of the students seems difficult to answer. we the students hope the cbsc board will give marks for attempting all the questions. so we hope the corrections must be liberal.
maths exam was harder as compared to last year… some questions are lengthy so that we are not able to complete in time… hope evaluation will be liberal…
maths easy yet i did’nt got time to complete it,will lose 10 marks because i didn’t got time,yet the paper was easy but lengthy.
The exam was hard than last years especiallly 4 mark questions.and also lengthy…hope correction will be liberal…..
Its easy copared to physics, almost all the questions were from the text itself.Expects 95+..
The difficulty level of the question paper was above average. It was harder as compared to previous years. The questions paper was extremely lengthy. Some of the questions from Section B , apart from being lengthy were difficult too- especially related to “Determinants, differential Equations and Probability” They were essentially Six mark questions in Section The question paper was so lengthy that no one known to me has been able to attempt for more than 90 marks.
This year CBSE seems to be going too harsh and cruel on the students.
it was an average paper .you just had to bother about time management . questions where a bit lenthy but not tedious.i think i will score in the nineties
many questions were tricky…to save time tricks were to be used….paper was easy….expecting 95+…
The paper was okay but a lengthy one.
It was of course,harder than last year’s paper.
Guess the marking scheme will be liberal.
questions were moderate ……many questions were from ncert book …..i attempted 96 number …and couldnt solve the 3d problem in b section …..rest of the tough questions i had solved before so it was easy for me …..it was way easier than physics
THE MATHS EXAM WAS VERY EASY THAN WHAT I EXPECTED.ALL THE QUESTIONS WERE DIRECT AND SIMPLE.IT WAS THE EASIEST AMONG ALL OTHER EXAMS.EXPECTING 95+. COMPARED TO LAST YEAR THE QUESTIONS WERE VERY SIMPLE.EVEN BELOW AVERAGE STUDENTS CAN SCORE WELL.6 MARKS QUESTIONS VERE VERY SHORT AND SIMPLE.THOUGH EASY SOME 4 MARK QUESTIONS WERE A BIT LENGTHY.
Which paper did u do?
Paper was horrible… Not enough time + extremely difficult… Wat were they even thinking setting up a paper like this…. I did foreign n that was bad enough so just imagine how wud the others be!! very tricky q’s….
a bit lengthy but attemptable..i attempted 99 marks
PLEASEEE someone upload the foreign and allindia question papers as soon as possible.
admin, are you sure the physics corrections will be VERY VERY liberal ? how did the information reach you? there is no such news on cbse.nic.in
There is nothing liberal. But, CBSE moderates the marking scheme before evaluation starts. Every year this happens and with every subject the moderation is done. But, this cannot be called liberalized valuation. Only students who attempt the questions will get the benefit. Especially the difficult ones.
Mine was Set 3. It was lengthy.Anyone here who did set 3? How was it?
I had set 3 Delhi region. It was a little more lengthy and difficult set as compared to the others. I had just under 5-7 minutes to attempt the 6 marked question of area under curves in which plotting the graph was also to be done. Ultimately I ended up shading and hence evaluating the area for the incorrect region.
The area was bound by three lines. I got the graph correct. Can anyone please tell how many marks I may expect there . Other than that I had made no other mistake. So my range is 94 – 94 + the marks i get in the area question.
@admin : i get you. is cbse willing to give a 100 this time in physics ? .
and, is it possible to download the marking scheme from some website?
SOME ONE PLEASE UPLOAD MATHS ALLINDIA AND FOREIGN SET PAPERS! :(
A complete analysis of the solutions will be soon published at http://www.physicsfans.com
My teacher told me that she did evaluation on the day of maths exam and someone from chennai zone got only 17 in physcis and she had to make it 22
So she just gave him 5 marks
The maths paper seemed to be little lengthy and tricky as well
It was easy but lenghty
..it was easier than physics and chemistry. Many will get 100.
Completed in 145 mins.Easy paper.
Is everyone talking of the delhi paper or outside delhi! Please mention that in your comments please! I live in kuwait and i found the paper very easy but many of my friends found it tough! And by the way the board does not change the pattern so u wont get more than certain no. Of questions from a certain chapter!
maths paper was from ncert but most difficult questions of 3d and probability were selected and there was very little choice in 6 marks questions.paper was lengthy.i pray to cbse to be a little liberal in checking,as these marks are very precious to me and for everybody and this is carrier deciding class.
yes,sahil i completely agree with you,they should have given in 6 marks question of probability ,aod and 3d.cbse didnt do justice with children this time,as they should think an average student is also giving this paper.not everybody who score 95
+ is giving .
The paper was quite average. The questions were pretty average.. But the the paper was very lengthy. Nobody in my center was able to finish the paper in time. Everyone had left around 10-20 marks including me. Studied very hard but was extremely upset as I knew all the questions but didn’t have enough time to attempt them all.
the paper was easy and easily done with proper time management, but mistakenly skipped determinant question

y cbse………………..y dis year only…..?
yes. Set 3 was tough compared to other 2 sets. CBSE should give moderation.
3RD set was difficult and lengthy please be liberal…
it was damn tough………….
right to education
right to equality
but no equality in education
as set 3 maths was much more difficult and lenghty
this was a big upset for everyone who got all india set 3 ……….even delhi was easier……so i humbly request the godly cbse authorities to kindly take care of it and bring some life to the moderation policy and give grace marks atleast for passing (which is a minimum criteria for gettin into any college).
hope cbse understands the mental pressure and tension of students who are in great depression.
Cbse will pass all the students nd those getting abve 27 vl pass… I vl fail for sure… I hd done a ques of derevative bt i hd solved it nd find d value of x bt in d ques it ws asked to find derivative… Vl i get any marks????
it was too lengthy.. by thinking whether we could complete the paper in time, we forgot mostly all answers, even the easy ones!.. cbse, please be pity on us..
we beg u, kindly make the correction liberal..
Paper was OK. but can anyone upload set 1 & set 2 . I had set 3 and would like to compare with other sets. Thanks
@samikshya-hw cn u say dt ppl getin 27 vil pass?

Our teacher told us…. There will be two marksheets if a student gets compartmentala
for set 3 i found only x and y and didn’t notice x+y is der ny partial credit 4 one mark ques
it was extremely lengthy i was so tensed to write this CBSE common you talk about mental pressure now you give us this type of paper
if der is a change in order of ques does that mattrr
No, You can answer the question in any order. But, repeatedly answering the same question at different places should be avoided
can u pls upload marking scheme for maths
is marking scheme available
The detailed answers are being published at http://www.physicsfans.com
for maths
By this time corrections would have been over.Any idea if All India Set 3 was considered for moderation as it was more difficult than the other 2 sets ?
For the wrong question everyone will get one mark for attempting
will strikes or cut offs affect much
Overwriting and unnecessary cut offs are to be avoided. Cut an answer only after you have rewritten the answer
wich r d wrong ques in set 3
It was about Physics
i expected cent percent bt the paper made me make careless mistakes nw so mch tensed …can’t sleep
is it necessary that the determinant question should be evaluated only in the prescribed method
pls ans
i had math set 3 all india..i waz extremely difficult compared to other sets….cbse seriously needs to look into this……it waz extremely lengthy too….cbse this year was your worst question year ever…..just dont try to spoil the future of lakhs of students…this time the moderation policy should be more moderated for physics set 1 & 3 and maths set 3 all india…just hope that cbse has some humanity and help students..
does cbse even know that maths set 3 was horrible……………somebody pls report…career on stake……cbse nt expected from u………….:(
u mean all india paper
yes…….set 3 all india maths…………..come on students we dont have much time to fight….report cbse asap………..
agree with you..all other sets were much simpler compared to set 3
yes..All India Set 3 maths paper was difficult compared to other sets. Please CBSE..be liberal.Do moderation for All India Set 3. We would be grateful to you always for this.
Is there anyone here to note our feedback or are we just crying at the wrong place which will never be heard by CBSE? Anyone to care for us? Anyone seriously listening to us and helping us for moderation in All India set 3 maths paper?
is it necessary that the determinant ques shud be evaluated only in the method prescribed by ncert
did any one report cbse……….write as as many email as you can……plz
now,evaluation is almost over wat more we can do
dis he real tym for action as moderation is mainly done after evaluation……………….plz cbse be a bit human in results…email cbse as much as possible
in all india physics question paper.. was any question went wrong.. whether marks will be provided for that question
math paper was very easy but enough time was not there.
**someone pls help**….will the determinant ques be given marks if we have solved it in a method other than the NCERT method
i haven’t seen this sotrt of easy paper in my life
we know……that the paper was easy for you all…but listen to us…we are not intelligent like you. so stop saying the maths paper was easy…we are just hoping to pass somehow.
.. same happened in ISC maths paper this time…lack of time…questions were even difficult than the last tesn years…twisted..and off course difficult for an average student .. yet scoring a 95 is easy :) ..
