A total of 3,73,910 students are reportedly appearing for the examination this year across colleges in the state.

The assessments are part of the evaluation framework for the 2024–26 academic session and are being conducted simultaneously across institutions to ensure uniformity in the process.

Board Examination Schedule Finalised

Meanwhile, Practical examinations will be conducted from January 2 to January 15. The second phase of internal assessment will be held between January 5 and 10. The students who fail to appear in the first phase of the internal assessment exam will be permitted to appear in the second phase. However, the students must provide a valid reason for the absence in the first phase of internal assessment examination. 

Colleges have been directed to complete evaluation and submit the assessed answer scripts by January 25 to facilitate timely processing of results.

The Plus Two examination is scheduled to be held from February 18 to March 21.

With internal assessments underway and board examinations approaching, colleges have been asked to adhere strictly to timelines and guidelines to avoid any disruption to the academic calendar.
