All the best for the festive seasons, you are aware that CBSE will be using OMR for the first time for the evaluation of both Class-X and XII. Therefore, it is necessary that all the students appearing for the Term-I examination and the schools sponsoring these students must be fully aware of the OMR.
OMR is Disclosed by Providing the Following Information
Following are the Important Features of OMR:
(vi) Candidates are advised to first mark the response by darkening the circle. If completely satisfied then they should write the answer in a box. The purpose of giving the box is only that if any candidate wants to change his answer, then it should be written in the box.
(vii) Even if a candidate is satisfied with the darkening of the circle, it has to be written in the answer box. Candidates have to answer in both a circle and a box.
(viii) The answer given in the box will be treated as final.
(ix) If the box is empty and the answer is marked in the circle, it will be presumed that the question has not been attempted by the candidate.
(x) If the answer is given in the box and the circle is left blank, it will be presumed that the question has been attempted by the candidate.
(xi) If all three i.e., 4 circle, box and last circle are left blank, then the question will be considered as not attempted.
Schools are requested to organize practice sessions for the students on the basis of the information provided by CBSE. Before the practice session, teachers should also be well acquainted with OMR.
