The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is expected to release the date sheets for the 2025 Class 10 and 12 board exams by the last week of November, though an official confirmation is still pending. As per earlier announcements, the theoretical exams for both classes are scheduled to begin on February 15, 2025. Students appearing for the board exam can soon check the detailed, subject-wise exam schedule on the official CBSE website, cbse.gov.in.

In addition to the theory exam dates, the CBSE has already published the schedule for practical examinations and Internal Assessments (IA). Practical exams for both Class 10 and 12 will commence from January 1, 2025.
