CBSE publishes the official Class 10 and Class 12 date sheets through its website. Do not use the 2009–10 schedule or an unauthenticated social-media PDF.
What this exam or admission route is
CBSE may issue notices, sample papers, admit-card information, practical-exam instructions and date-sheet revisions separately. Schools and private candidates may receive different operational instructions.
Who can apply
Students should confirm subject codes and candidate status with their school/CBSE records. Any correction must follow the board’s permitted process.
