The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has released sample papers in the form of the Sample Question Paper (SQP), along with the marking scheme (MS) on the official website. The board does not officially issue separate half-yearly sample papers, but many of the questions in the final CBSE sample papers cover topics that appear in the half-yearly exam. Schools also often provide their own sample papers specifically for CBSE half-yearly exams. Also, students can refer to the chapter-wise sample papers books for preparation for the half-yearly exam. As of now, CBSE half-yearly exams have begun in some schools, and others will conduct them soon. Also, the CBSE 12th half-yearly syllabus differs from school to school.

Thankyou.


Hello,

Sorry, but JoSAA does not accept marks from two different boards for the same qualification during counselling. However, you can use your NIOS marks to meet the JEE Main/Advanced eligibility criteria if they are better than your CBSE marks. You can use your NIOS marks for the eligibility check, but when presenting your documents, you may be required to present both marksheets and the one with the higher marks for each subject will be considered.

I hope it will clear your query!!

Here is Link you can refer: https://school.careers360.com/download/ebooks/karnataka-sslc-mid-term-english-answer-key-2025-26

Also,

check your school website or notice board regularly for any updates about the English mid-term exam question paper for 2025–26. The school usually uploads or announces it before the exam schedule.

Next, focus on revising all chapters from the first half of the syllabus. Practice grammar rules, comprehension passages, and essay writing to strengthen your basics and writing skills.

Finally, keep your admit card, timetable, and stationery ready before the exam. Stay calm, manage your time well, and revise once more before the test day for better results.

Hello,

The date of 12 exam is depends on which board you belongs to . You should check the exact date of your exam by visiting the official website of your respective board.

Hope this information is useful to you.
