Class 10 students appear for exams in five subjects, but can appear for an exam in an additional sixth sixth subject, if they wish to.

“A school can only offer only those subjects for which the school has the necessary infrastructure — a qualified teacher and other facilities such as a laboratory etc and the candidate must be taught the complete course…”, states the circular dated December 6.
