- The registration process is entirely online, and schools should use the official Pariksha Sangam link for submissions.
Future Changes:
It’s noteworthy that while the CBSE board exams for 2025 will be conducted once, there are discussions about the possibility of holding the exams twice a year starting from 2026. This proposed change aims to provide students with more flexibility, but it will require adjustments to the current examination format.
Conclusion:
With the registration deadline imminent, schools and students should act promptly to complete the necessary formalities. Staying informed through official channels will help ensure a smooth preparation process for the CBSE Board Exam 2025.
