CBSE Class-10 Exam 2018 : Marking Scheme

Question Paper, English Language And Literature


CBSE Class-10 Exam 2018 : English Language And Literature

Secondary School Examination (Class-X) March-2018

Marking Scheme – English Language and Literature (184)

2/1, 2/2, 2/3

General Instructions

1. The marking scheme provides general guidelines to reduce subjectivity in the process of evaluation. The answers given in the marking scheme are the suggested answers. The content is thus
indicative. If the answer given by a student is different from the one given in the Marking Scheme, but conveys the correct meaning, such answer should also be given full weightage.

2. Evaluation is to be done as per the instructions provided in the marking scheme. It should not be done according to one's own interpretation or any other considerations. Marking scheme should be
strictly adhered to and religiously followed.

3. If a question has parts, please award marks on the right hand side for each part, marks awarded to the different parts of the question should then be totalled up and written on the left hand margin and
circled.

4. If a question does not have any parts, marks may be awarded on the left hand margin.

5. If a candidate has attempted any extra question or part, marks obtained in the best question/part should be retained and the other answer should be scored out.

6. Short type answers asking for 2 features / characteristics / points. There is a candidate who writes 2 points as directed and that too correctly whereas the other lists 5 points of which first is correct, second is incorrect, the third correct and remaining incorrect. If the suggested value points are there in a 2 marks question it should be awarded the due marks.

7. In the marking scheme, a slash (/) indicates alternative answers; any one such answer is counted as correct.

8. Brackets ( ) indicate optional information; Marks may be awarded whether the part in brackets is included or not.

9. Candidates should not be penalized if they do not follow the order of the sections / questions while answering.

10. In questions requiring word limit, no marks are to be deducted for exceeding the word limit.

11. Q.1, Q.2 and Q.8 are meant to test the comprehension of the candidates and not the ability of expression. Full credit should be given for the correct value points, even if the answer is not given in
a full sentence.

12. In questions consisting two or more than two marks, break up of marks should be shown separately (as suggested in the marking scheme) and then totalled.

13. Tendency to be over sympathetic / over strict in marking – in the first instance, a candidate who should have got just 30 at the most, is awarded 33 so that he/she passes in the said subject. On the
other hand, marks are deducted not because answers are not up to the mark, but simply because these should not be awarded. It is to be remembered that the evaluators are expected to use 101 point scale. This is the principle of evaluation which evaluators should not lose sight of in actual practice.

14. As per orders of the Hon'ble Supreme Court, the candidates would now be permitted to obtain photocopy of the Answer Book on request on payment of the prescribed fee. All Examiners / Head
Examiners are once again reminded that they must ensure that the evaluation is carried out strictly as per value points for each answer as given in the Marking Scheme.

15. All the Head Examiners / Examiners are instructed that while evaluating the answer scripts, if answer is found to be totally incorrect, the (x) should be marked on the incorrect answer and awarded '0' marks.

Question Paper, Business Studies


CBSE Class-12 Exam 2018 : Business Studies

Senior School Certificate Examination

March -----2017-18

Marking Scheme---Business Studies 66/1, 66/2, 66/3

General Instructions:

1. The marking scheme carries only suggested value points for the answer. These are only guidelines and do not constitute the complete answer. The students can have their own expression and if the expression is correct, marks be awarded accordingly.

2. Evaluation is to be done as per instructions provided in the marking scheme.

3. If a question has parts, please award marks on the right hand side for each part. Marks awarded for different parts of the question should then be totalled up and encircled in the left hand margin.

4. If a question does not have parts, marks be awarded in the left hand margin.

5. If a candidate has attempted a question twice, marks should be given in the question attempted first and the question attempted later should be ignored with the comment 'Extra Attempt'.

6. In a question, if two features/ characteristics/ points are asked but an examinee writes more than two features/ characteristics/ points, say, five, of which first is correct, second is incorrect, the first two should be assessed and the remaining should be ignored.

7. The examiners should acquaint themselves with the instructions given in the Guidelines for Spot Evaluation before starting the actual evaluation.

8. Every examiner should stay upto sufficiently reasonable time normally 5-6 hours everyday and evaluate 20-25 answer books and should devote minimum 15-20 minutes to evaluate each answer book.

9. Every examiner should acquaint himself/ herself with the marking schemes of all the sets.

10. It is expected that the marking scheme should be followed objectively to ensure quality evaluation. For instance, if an examinee scores 24 marks, then the marks should not be inflated to 27 simply to pass him/ her.

11. Marks should be awarded keeping in view the total marks of a particular question and not the total marks of the question paper. For example, if one mark is given to a 3 marks question even if nothing is correct, then that one mark constitutes 33% of the total marks for this answer.

12. The examiner shall also have to certify in the answer book that they have evaluated the answer book strictly in accordance with the value points given in the marking scheme and correct set of question papers.

13. While evaluating the answer scripts, if the answer is found to be totally incorrect, it should be marked as (x) and awarded zero (0) marks.

14. A full scale of marks 0-80 has to be used. Please do not hesitate to award full marks if the answer deserves it. Similarly, wherever an examinee writes an answer upto the mark, his/ her marks should not be deducted unnecessarily.

15. As per the orders of Hon'ble Supreme Court, the candidates would now be permitted to obtain photocopy of the Answer Book on request on payment of the prescribed fee. All examiners/ Head Examiners are once again reminded that they must ensure that evaluation is carried out strictly as per value points for each answer as given in the Marking Scheme.
