CBSE to conduct Class 10 and 12 board examination from July 1 to 15

New Delhi : The Central Board Secondary Education (CBSE) will be conducting the remaining Class 10 and Class 12 board examinations between July and July 15.

The HRD Ministry had recently announced that JEE (Main) exam will be conducted from July 18 to 23 and NEET from July 26.

“We want to give students a ten-day window before we commence the exams. It is unlikely that exams will happen in May. So, the plan is to complete the process in the two months of June and July. The exams should be over by the first half of July,” Hindustan Times quoted a government official, who did not wish to be named.

The CBSE Class 10 exams have been suspended for 2020 in the subjects where they have not been conducted, although students from North East Delhi, who missed exams that other students have already appeared in, will have to appear for these, HRD Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal ‘Nishank’ announced on Tuesday when he interacted with students on their concerns.

However, Class 12 students will have to appear for the board examinations for 12 subjects.

The engineering entrance examination JEE will be held from July 18-23, while the medical entrance test NEET will be conducted on July 26, the minister added.
