The Maths, Science and Social Science papers are the English-medium versions. Where the original paper has a figure, chart, concept map or diagram, it is described in words in square brackets so you can still follow the question. A few items that depend entirely on drawing, such as marking places on the outline map in Geography Q.4 (A), the crossword in Science Part 2 and one diagram-based question in Science Part 1, are not reproduced; practise those from your textbook and school worksheets.
Why the previous year's paper matters
- It shows the real pattern. You see exactly how many questions each section has and where the internal choice is. For the four Maths and Science papers, the March 2026 papers kept the same structure as March 2025.
- It shows the board's language. Phrases like "complete the activity", "give scientific reasons", "identify the wrong pair" and "find the odd man out" each expect a particular style of answer.
- It tests your timing. Knowing the content is one thing; writing 40 marks of answers in two hours is another.
How to use a board paper: the right way
Step 1: Finish the syllabus first
A board paper covers the whole subject. Use it after you have revised every chapter at least once. Before that, chapter tests are a better use of your time.
Step 2: Write it like the real exam
- Copy the questions into a notebook, or keep the paper open on one screen without scrolling to the answers.
- Set a timer for two hours (three for languages).
- Write by hand. Draw figures, diagrams and graphs with a pencil and ruler.
- No calculator for Maths or Science Part 1, and no textbook.
- Choose your internal-choice questions at the start and answer only those.
Step 3: Check against the worked answers
Now open the answers. For each question, compare not just the final answer but the steps. Give yourself marks honestly, step by step, the way an examiner would. If your final answer is right but a step is missing, do not give yourself full marks.
Step 4: Record what went wrong
Sort every lost mark into one of four buckets:
- Concept gap: you did not know it. Revise the chapter and take its chapter test.
- Careless error: a calculation slip, a wrong sign, a missing unit. Slow down while checking.
- Presentation: the answer was right but incomplete, without steps, a diagram or a conclusion.
- Time: you did not reach the question. Change your time split next time.
The bucket with the most marks in it tells you what to work on before your next paper.
Subject-wise tips while practising the March 2025 papers
Algebra and Geometry
Activity questions in Q.2 (A) and Q.3 (A) are fill-in-the-box solutions. They are quick marks if you know the standard method. In Geometry, every theorem proof needs a figure, and construction marks must stay visible. After the paper, use the Algebra and Geometry full subject tests to spot weak chapters.
Science Part 1 and Part 2
"Give scientific reasons" answers should state the scientific principle, not just repeat the statement. In Q.3 you answer any five of eight 3-mark questions, so choose questions where you can also draw the diagram or complete the numerical with units. Follow up with the Science 1 and Science 2 full subject tests.
History, Political Science and Geography
In Paper I, Q.1 (A) and Q.6 require a complete sentence as the answer, not just the option. In Paper II, geographical reasons carry 3 marks each, so write a clear point-wise explanation. Practise the graph question on graph paper. Use the History, Political Science and Geography full subject tests for quick recall checks.
English, Marathi and Hindi
Language papers are activity sheets based on the textbook plus writing skills. Time is the usual problem: practise the writing section (letters, reports, essays and similar tasks) within a fixed number of minutes.
After the paper: close the loop
For every concept gap you find, go to the matching chapter test, take it after revising, and let the syllabus tracker update your weak chapters from the score. For textbook exercise solutions, use the subject question banks, for example Science Part 1 or History.
FAQ
Are the answers official?
No. The questions are from the board's March 2025 papers, and the answers are worked solutions written for students. The board's own marking scheme may award marks for other correct methods too.
Are these papers free?
Yes. All nine March 2025 papers and their answers are free to view.
Should I solve the paper before or after the mock tests?
Both have a place. Use chapter tests while revising, then write the full board paper once the syllabus is complete, and use the mock tests again to fix weak chapters.
Will the 2027 paper be the same?
The questions will be different, but the structure has stayed the same between March 2025 and March 2026 for Maths and Science. Check the board's website for any announced change.
