Mixed reactions following CBSE English Paper

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has just announced the dates for the 2025 board exams, and the students have a mixed reaction. Some students welcome that the exams start later than usual, while others worry about the reduced amount of time remaining for preparation.

The CBSE board examinations for 2025 will start on February 15, 2025, and end on April 10, 2025. The exam schedule for this year has been rescheduled to suit the upcoming assembly elections. However, the shorter period for preparation has made some students nervous and stressed.

"I'm glad the exams are coming a little late, but then again, I'm also scared about less preparation time," noted Ria, a Class 12 student. "I would have appreciated the CBSE allowing us a better preparation time. The shortness of the preparation time is going to be problematic for us," added Rohan, a Class 10 student.

In spite of the fear, the CBSE has reassured students that the exam dates have been fixed so that the students will have enough time to prepare. The board has also announced that it will offer extra help to students in the form of extra study materials and counseling sessions.

While a section of students welcome the additional help, others are doubtful. "I do not know how much additional study materials and counseling will benefit. We require additional time to prepare, not additional resources," stated a Class 12 student who preferred not to be named. 

CBSE's decision to postpone the exams might have its advantages and disadvantages, but it is certainly beyond doubt that students will have to make the best of it and make the most of the time at hand.
