#examreschedule

Today, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) confirmed that Class 10 and Class 12 board exams scheduled for March 3, 2026 will not be conducted on that day. This update affects students across CBSE‑affiliated schools who were preparing for those specific papers.

Why the March 3 Exams Were Shifted

CBSE’s 2026 board examinations began on February 17, and were progressing as per the timetable. However, specific papers originally set for March 3 have now been rescheduled to later dates as part of the revised timetable.

This rescheduling does not mean the rest of the board exam calendar has changed most papers will continue on their planned dates unless the board announces further updates.

What the New Dates Mean for Students

Under the updated plan:

Class 10 exams, which were earlier scheduled to finish on March 3, will now conclude on March 10, 2026.

Class 12 exams will wrap up on April 10, 2026.

This extension gives students some extra preparation time for the affected papers without changing the overall end date of the board examinations.

How Students Should Adapt Their Preparation

If you’re a Class 10 or Class 12 student, here’s how you can make the most of the rescheduled timetable:

Check Your Admit Card and Date Sheet: Update your personal exam schedule based on the revised timetable provided by CBSE through your school or the official board notifications.

Plan Revision Accordingly: Use the additional days to revise important topics, especially in the subjects that were moved from March 3 to later dates.

Stay Updated: Keep an eye on official announcements from CBSE schools and circulars to ensure you don’t miss any further changes.

This rescheduling provides students with extra study time for those specific papers a chance to strengthen preparation without altering the broader exam flow.
