Important Instructions for Students

• Download the Sample Question Paper (SQP) and Marking Scheme (MS) only from the official CBSE Academic website, cbseacademic.nic.in, to avoid outdated or incorrect versions circulated on unofficial pages.
• Always download the MS along with the SQP for the same subject and session - checking answers without the official marking scheme can give a misleading sense of preparation.
• Confirm that the PDF you download is labelled for the 2026-27 session and not an older session (such as 2025-26), since question formats and marks distribution can change from year to year.
• Treat the sample paper as a guide to question format, structure, and marks weightage - not as a guaranteed preview of the actual questions that will appear in the board exam.
• Cross-check the sample paper against your school's latest CBSE-prescribed syllabus and textbook for the subject, since sample papers are based on the current year's syllabus.
