The Board will not appoint any external examiners to evaluate CBSE Class 10 practical exams but it will assign specific external examiners to each school to conduct CBSE Class 12 practical exams and project assessments. Schools are not permitted to arrange alternative external examiners. Only the Board-appointed examiners can conduct CBSE Class 12 practical exams and assessments.
To maintain consistency and accuracy in the conduct of CBSE practical examinations, projects, and internal assessments for Classes 10 and 12, the Board has established Guidelines and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for students and schools. CBSE Class 10 and CBSE Class 12 exams will be conducted from February 15 to April 4, 2025.
The Board has instructed schools to promptly upload marks for all practical exams, projects, and internal assessments. Both internal and external examiners must ensure accurate mark entry, adhering to the maximum mark allocation for each component.

On Question asked by student community
Yes, you can switch from Science in Karnataka State Board to Commerce in CBSE for 12th. You will need a Transfer Certificate from your current school and meet the CBSE school’s admission requirements. Since you haven’t studied Commerce subjects like Accountancy, Economics, and Business Studies, you may need to catch up before or during 12th. Not all CBSE schools accept direct admission to 12th from another board, so some may ask you to join Class 11 first. Make sure to check the school’s rules and plan your subject preparation.
