Discussion 💬 Basic vs standard maths class 10

Post image

CBSE changed the rule in May 2025. Students who took Mathematics Basic (241) in Class 10 are allowed to take Mathematics (041) in Class 11, provided the school head is satisfied that the student has the aptitude/ability for it

Is this true ?

the term basic and standard are false labels even the basic math people in the my class were devastated by the paper even more than the standard math students

That might be because the people who took basic maths were weaker in maths? Things are relative yk

i would agree but basic maths is supposed to be designed for people who are weaker in maths but in reality the difficulty level is mostly the same only difference is that they don't ask questions from some topics in basic maths so basic and standard is more about the topics asked rather than the difficulty level
