CBSE announces date sheet for Class 10, 12 Board exams; check details

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) Class 10 and Class 12 Board exams will begin on February 15, 2025.

While the Class 12 Board exams will end on April 4, the Class 10 exams will conclude on March 18.

In order to appear for the Class 10 and 12 examinations, a student must have at least 75 per cent attendance.

The examinations will begin at 10.30 am.

For the first time, the date sheets have been issued nearly 86 days before the start of the examinations.

The CBSE said that an early release of the date sheet will help students to start their preparations well in advance, which will help them overcome examination anxiety and improve their performance in the examinations.

A sufficient gap has been given between two subjects generally offered by a student in both classes.

“Families of the students appearing in the examinations and the teachers will be able to plan their visits during the summer vacations keeping in view the examination dates and the evaluation schedule. Teachers will not be away from their school for a longer time, hence, the studies of non-board classes will not be hampered,” the Board said.

The Board has announced that it will not release the merit list and division-wise marks of students for the Board exams 2025.
