CBSE has ensured a well-structured schedule, with sufficient gaps between major subjects to reduce stress for students.
Admit cards for the exams were provided through the Pariksha Sangam Portal. Regular students are required to carry their school IDs along with their admit cards, while private candidates must present a government-issued photo ID.
To facilitate a smooth examination process, CBSE conducted a live webcast on its YouTube channel on Friday afternoon, where centre superintendents and officials were briefed on examination and evaluation guidelines.
