How to use official sample papers
Open the official CBSE reference-material section, choose your class and subject, then pair the sample paper with its marking scheme. Do not assume a circulating “2027 paper” is official unless it is hosted or linked by CBSE.

Sources & verification
The CBSE Academic skill-SQP page lists Session 2026–27. The general academic SQP archive currently exposes the 2025–26 Class X/XII session in search, so StudyDesk does not overstate a 2026–27 general-subject release.
