UPMSP Update – UP Board Changes Class 9 Exam Pattern, Read More

New Delhi, 11 November 2021 – Uttar Pradesh Madhyamik Shiksha Parishad (UPMSP) has changed the exam pattern of Class 9 exams 2021-22. The new pattern states that all exams for Class 9 students will now have 30% of questions in the multiple-choice question (MCQ) format. Earlier, all questions were in the theoretical format, but now, 70% of questions (50 out of 70) will be theoretical and 30% (20 out of 50) will be MCQ-based.  

These questions are to be answered on an OMR sheet. The UP board has also released a sample OMR sheet for students to get an idea of how the new question paper will be formulated. This exam pattern will be followed in both half-yearly and annual exams for Class 9. 

Half-yearly exams will be of 70 marks each and comprise 20 MCQs and 50 descriptive questions. Annual exams will also be conducted in the same pattern. A total of 30 marks will be allotted to internal assessments as well. Thus, the final result will be calculated on the basis of total marks secured in both term exams along with the internal assessment, i.e., 70 marks (half-yearly) + 70 marks (final) + 30 marks (internal assessment).
