According to the statement issued by the board on Monday, the examinations will be held between 10.45 am and 2 pm, with the first 15 minutes strictly allotted for allowing candidates to read the question paper.

The examination begins with the first language paper, which has 12 languages, including Bengali, English and Hindi, as per the schedule.

WBBSE has clarified that the dates of the physical education, social service and vocational education examinations will be announced later, apart from some changes in the exam schedule of several specific subjects.
