CBSE Datesheet 2025: Download PDF here
While preparing the Date sheet, the following has been taken into consideration
- A sufficient gap has been given between two subjects generally offered by a student in both classes.
- The date of conduct of entrance examinations meant for the students of Class XII have been taken into consideration and efforts have been made to complete the examinations much before the entrance examinations. This will help the students with better time management for both the Board and the entrance examinations.
- During evaluations, teachers of all subjects will not stay away from school together and for a longer period.
- The date sheet has been prepared to avoid more than 40,000 subject combinations, ensuring that no two subjects’ examinations offered by a student fall on the same date.
- The time of the start of the examinations will be at 10.30 AM (1ST).
