Concluding

All the exam paper analyses from students, parents, and MTG’s Twitter poll concludes that the exam was “Medium to Tough”. The difficulty of the paper has been inclined towards medium because the paper was lengthy and tricky.

The Class 12 students who have not been able to do well in the exam must not be demotivated and must start to prepare for the next major subject’s exam i.e., Physics which is to be held on 4th March 2024. Students must also remember that class 12 board outcomes are not the only outcomes to define their career ahead. Life is the name of opportunities and we must grab each of them wherever possible. The good news is- you are NOT doomed if your class 12 outcomes are not very good! You still have CUET exams at your hand along with NEET & JEE.

All you need to get into the best-suited career for yourself is the right motivation and the best study materials. Students are advised to practice through ScoreMore 15 Sample Papers and CBSE  Question Bank Class 12 to prepare for the exam efficiently and practice maximum sample papers.
