CBSE Class 12 Maths Exam 2025 Live: Paper moderate to lengthy, says HOD
CBSE Class 12 Maths Exam 2025 Live: Pooja Nayyar, HOD Maths, Seth Anandram Jaipuria School Vasundhara, Ghaziabad review:
The class XII Maths CBSE paper was moderate but lengthy. Only 2-3 questions on integral calculus seemed to be a bit tricky, but most of the paper was from PYQs and NCERT. MCQs were not lengthy and were based on concepts. The blueprint from the sample paper did not apply much to the exam since the distribution of marks was way different. Overall the questions were of moderate level.

CBSE Class 12 Maths Exam 2025 Live:
The Grade 12 Standard Mathematics paper was of moderate difficulty but lengthy. While some questions were straightforward, the exam required strong conceptual understanding and effective time management.
High-scoring students found 2-3 MCQs to be challenging, but the rest of the paper was manageable. Among the different sets, SET 1 was the easiest, whereas SET 3 was comparatively more difficult. In terms of sections, Sections A and E were more challenging than the others. The paper also included some Previous Year Questions (PYQs).

CBSE Class 12 Maths Exam 2025 Live:
The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) conducted the Mathematics (041) & Applied Math exam (241) today, 08th March 2025. The duration of the exam was 3 hours. The question paper was for 80 marks (includes 20 MCQs & 3 CASE BASED QUESTIONS) with internal choices. The exam was moderate, with a good balance of question types. Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs): These were generally easy to moderate, primarily based on the NCERT syllabus, making them accessible for students who prepared adequately. Long Answer Type Questions*: These posed a greater challenge, with some being deemed difficult. This aligns with feedback from students who found these questions more complex compared to the MCQs
.
Short and Very Short Answer Questions, These were considered easy, allowing students to score well in this section without significant difficulty. This feedback reflects a comprehensive assessment of the exam structure, highlighting areas where students performed well and where they faced challenges. The students shared a positive yet mixed review of the Mathematics and Applied Math board exam, highlighting the following key points. While students felt that the paper was slightly more difficult than previous years, they found it manageable because of prior practice. Many students noted that the study resources and practice materials provided by their teachers had similar or almost identical questions. This familiarity helped them approach the exam with confidence, making it feel simpler than expected. The paper was considered a bit lengthy, requiring efficient time management. However, since many questions were familiar, students could solve them quickly, reducing the impact of the length. Despite the initial perception of difficulty, students found the paper easy overall due to thorough preparation and effective guidance from their teachers. This feedback indicates that good preparation and relevant practice materials played a crucial role in helping students perform well, even in a slightly challenging and lengthy exam.
