By Soumi Roy

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is expected to publish the Class 10 and Class 12 board exam timetable for 2027 shortly. Students will be able to download the subject‑wise date sheet and timings from the official website, cbse.gov.in, once the schedule is released.

CBSE has completed the regular submission window for the 2027 candidate list for the 2026‑27 academic session, and the LOC submission window with late fees closed on October 30. Based on past trends, the board examinations are anticipated to take place in February and March 2027.

The board has also posted sample question papers for Classes 10 and 12 for the 2026‑27 cycle on its website, cbseacademic.nic.in. When the timetable becomes available, students can follow the steps outlined on the CBSE site to download the PDF.

Students must secure at least 33 percent in each subject to pass. Those who do not meet the minimum will be eligible for improvement or supplementary examinations, as per CBSE rules. Class 10 students may improve scores in up to three subjects in session 2, while Class 12 students can take supplementary exams if they fail to pass in the main board exams.

Additional details: The Class 10 Mathematics internal assessment totals 20 marks, comprising 10 marks for a pen‑paper test and multiple assessment, 5 marks for lab practical activities, and 5 marks for a portfolio. Practical exams for winter‑bound schools will occur in November‑December 2026, and for other schools in January‑February 2027.

The official Class 10 date sheet for 2027 has not yet been released, but the board is expected to announce it soon, as the LOC process is now complete. Students should monitor cbse.gov.in for the latest updates on exam schedules, registration deadlines, and other important information.
