The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has released a datasheet for term 2 class 10 and class 12 board exams on its official website at cbse.nic.in. The exams will commence from April 26.
Exams will be held in physical mode. Students will have to wear masks while writing exams. Exams for both 10th and 12th will begin at 10:30 am. Students will get 15 minutes of reading time before the exam.
“As schools were closed due to the pandemic which has led to learning losses, therefore, more gap has been given between two exams in almost all subjects,” said CBSE.
It also added that other competitive exams like JEE Main have been taken care of while preparing the datesheet.
Meanwhile, due to the coronavirus pandemic, CBSE has asked parents to ensure that their ward is not sick before appearing for the exams to ensure the safety of other students.
