• This will help in developing critical thinking and research ability in the students.
• The proposal is in line with the NEP 2020 guidelines, which advocates for assessment of higher-order thinking skills such as analysis, critical thinking, and problem-solving, alongside descriptive elements for a deeper understanding,
Proposed Change in Examination Marks Pattern:
• For languages and for core subjects in the Humanities stream, such as Civics, Commerce, History, and Economics, the division will be 80 marks for theory and 20 marks for internal assessments (Project Work / Research Activity)
• In Total, Each Stream will Have 500 Marks: The Humanities Group will be Allocated 400 Marks for Theory and 100 Marks for internal Assessments. MPC Group will have 380 Marks for Theory and 120 Marks For internal/ practical Assessments and BiPC group will have 370 marks for theory and 130 Marks for internal / practical Assessments.

(MCQs), fill-in-the-blanks, and one-word answers. – Revision of essay-type questions, reducing the marks allocated from 8 to 5/6 marks.
