The daily exam schedule is set from 3 PM to 4.15 PM, with certain subjects like Visual Arts and Music having a shorter duration of 45 minutes.

The second-semester exams are scheduled to take place from March 3 to March 18 next year, i.e., 2025. These exams will also follow a detailed timetable, with sessions running from 3 PM to 5 PM. Similar to the first semester, vocational subjects will have a slightly shorter exam duration.

While the council has provided the exam schedule, the responsibility for organising the exams, including setting question papers and evaluating answer sheets, lies with individual schools. This decentralised approach aims to offer schools the flexibility to manage their examination processes effectively.
