Currently, the board prepares the schedule, keeping in mind that no two subjects chosen by the students should fall on the same day.

With the introduction of biannual exam system, the gap between papers will be considerably reduced to ensure that both exams are held and all results are declared by June

The Education Ministry has asked the board to draft a plan on how the two exams will be conducted in the public domain for feedback

The commencement of CBSE exams in February will likely continue due to harsh winter conditions in some regions, with results being declared in March, two months earlier than the current timeline

The second exam cycle will possibly commence in May with results being declared in June. For Class 12th, the system will only be considered on the basis of the experience of holding two exams for Class 10th
