As per the new rule, class 10 and 12 students will be given an opportunity to improve their performance in any one subject within the same academic year

Students appearing for CBSE board exams will have a chance to appear for improvement papers and better their scores. 

As per the earlier rules, if a student had to improve their performance in board exams, they had to wait a complete year and appear in the exam with the next batch, however, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has allowed students the flexibility to do the same within the same academic year.
