In a bid to reduce the burden on students, the Tamil Nadu government has decided to reduce the Plus-2 marks from 1,200 to 600. The decision comes in the backdrop of the government recently announcing that the plus-1 will be made a board examination. Now the students will have a consolidated marks sheet for both plus-1 and plus-2. The exam time would also be reduced from 3 hours to 2.30 hours.
