According to the CBSE Class 10 Syllabus 2024-25 decided by the Central Board of Secondary Education, in class 10th there are five compulsory subjects, including Language 1, Languages 2, Social Science, Mathematics, and Science. Students can choose an optional third language and another elective subject according to the list provided by CBSE or according to their interests. Apart from this, there are three compulsory subjects which will be tested only through the school premises and the marks for these will be reflected as grades. These are Health and Physical Education, Work Experience, and Art Education. It is compulsory to have a passing grade in all these subjects to be eligible for the passing certificate.

According to recent changes made in the curriculum, the board exam in Mathematics is held at two levels in Class X.

However, a student who has opted for Mathematics - standard can offer any one of the two available Mathematics at Sr. Secondary level. Every year, CBSE constructs the date sheet based on the holidays and the amount of preparation time needed to prepare for a specific subject. There is plenty of time to study for the exams in between the papers. At least one day off is provided in between every exam for the main subjects.
