JKBOSE has directed all school heads and examination centres to ensure that the schedule is strictly followed and communicated to students well in advance. The Board has urged invigilators to maintain discipline and fairness during the exams.

A senior official told ProKashmiri.in that the detailed centre allotments and roll number slips will be issued shortly through respective schools.

This year’s Class 11th exams will be conducted under the revised pattern announced earlier by JKBOSE, which includes a 15% relaxation in syllabus and passing marks due to academic disruptions.

This means that students will attempt 85% of the paper, while the passing marks have been lowered proportionally to help them cope with reduced teaching days.
For Class 11th students, subjects with 100 marks now require 31 marks to pass, while those with 80 marks need 22 marks after the relaxation.

Teachers have advised students to follow a balanced revision schedule, focus on core concepts, and avoid relying solely on the relaxation policy. With the Board exams set to start in the second half of November, schools are conducting final preparatory sessions and mock tests to help students gain confidence.

JKBOSE has also reiterated that no electronic devices will be allowed inside exam centres and that strict monitoring will be ensured throughout the exam period.

With the date sheet now public, students across Kashmir and Ladakh can plan their study routine accordingly. This announcement comes as a sign of relief and clarity for Class 11th students after weeks of speculation over the exam schedule.
