CBSE Open Book Examinations 2024 Scheduled in November-December for Class 9 to 12 

Last year on August 23rd, 2023, the new education curriculum was launched by the union education minister Dharmendra Pradhan. To align with the new curriculum guidelines, the Central Board of Secondary Education is considering organizing open book examinations for Class 9 to 12 students. 

The open book examinations will be scheduled in selected CBSE schools to analyze and discover the feasibility of the examinations. The exams will be held for Class 9-10 English, Science, and Math, and for Class 11-12, English, Biology, and Maths. CBSE plans to schedule it in November-December to get feedback from the participants and analyze the maximum time taken by students for the test. 

In 2014, CBSE experimented with the Open Book Test Exam (OBTA) to help students gain skills and relieve stress but due to negative feedback, the exams were discontinued. The committee will seek guidance from DU to conduct the examinations and improve the student’s experience. The high-quality books involve teachers for the examination and ensure the instillation of critical, and problem-thinking skills with these examinations.
