COMPETENCY BASED LEARNING TEST-I (2024-25)
Grade: 10 Subject: Mathematics Duration: 40 min M.M: 25
General Instructions:
1. The Question Paper contains only one section i.e.Section A– Mathematics consisting 25 questions.
2. All questions are compulsory.
3. All questions carry equal marks. There is no negative marking.
4. Use blue ball point pen, and avoid gel pen and fountain pen for filling the OMR sheets.
5. Darken the bubbles completely. Don't put a tick mark or a cross mark where it is specified that you fill the bubbles
completely. Half-filled or over-filled bubbles will not be read by the software.
6. Never use whiteners to rectify filling errors as they may disrupt the scanning and evaluation process.
7. Writing on the OMR Sheet is permitted on the specified area only and even small mark on other than specified area may
create problem during the scanning.
8. Do not fold the OMR Sheet.
9.Multiple markings are invalid.
10.Put your Signature and Thumb impression, in the appropriate rectangular boxes, in
front of the Invigilator.
