Excitement and nerves run high as CBSE initiates Class 10 and 12 board examinations on February 17. Class 10 opens with Mathematics Standard and Basic, while Class 12 students meet Biotechnology and Entrepreneurship challenges at 10:30 AM.
Centers open until 10:00 AM; tardiness means no entry. Factoring national events, Dr. Sanyam Bhardwaj recommends early starts, monitoring traffic and conditions.
Checklist: Admit card (printout), ID, blue pen, pencil, scale, rubber, transparent bottle. Forbidden: Phones, smart devices, calculators, bags, papers—zero tolerance.
Schools, facilitate families; flag paper concerns instantly on exam day through designated channels. CBSE critiques past errors—late, fuzzy, misdirected complaints—and enforces OCMS-only, detailed, same-day protocol.
Unmet standards void actions. 2026 prep directives echo this, seeking school solidarity. CBSE’s rigorous framework ensures equitable testing, marking a defining moment for aspiring scholars.
