CBSE Date Sheet 2025: Class 10 and 12 Exam Timetables Released
The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has officially released the date sheets for the Class 10 and Class 12 board exams, which will begin on February 15, 2025. Class 10 exams will start with the English paper, while Class 12 will begin with the Entrepreneurship exam.
Students can access and download the full timetables from the official CBSE website at cbse.gov.in. The board has stated that around 44 lakh students are expected to appear for these exams. To avoid scheduling conflicts, the timetable was carefully crafted, considering more than 40,000 subject combinations to ensure that no student has overlapping exams on the same day.
Both Class 10 and Class 12 exams will take place in the morning shift, with most papers scheduled from 10:30 AM to 12:30 PM, while some will be from 10:30 AM to 1:30 PM.
For the first time, the date sheets have been issued 86 days prior to the start of the exams, which is 23 days earlier than the previous year. CBSE also made sure to consider the dates of entrance exams for Class 12 students, ensuring the board exams are completed before those begin.
To ensure fair conduct of exams, CBSE has introduced a new CCTV policy. Educational institutions are now required to install high-resolution cameras to monitor both student actions and exam materials.
