As classes have been held in online mode for the most part of the academic year, most states are uncertain about when to conduct the board exams. Tamil Nadu too is yet to announce a final exam pattern for its class 10, 12 students. CBSE, CISCE are holding boards twice this year and both term exams will be held in different patterns. For Tamil Nadu, as of now, the exams will be held once a year and in the same format.
With the increasing cases of Covid-19 across states, several state boards have made a few changes in the upcoming board exams and are also yet to declare a final exam date. While Bihar has said it is vaccinating students before conducting the board exams, Madhya Pradesh board has shifted the pre-board exams for classes 10 and 12 to take home mode. This means students can appear for the exams while sitting at their homes. The step was taken due to a rise in the Covid-19 cases. It had earlier been announced that the practical exams will begin on February 12 and continue till March 31 along with the theory exam.
