The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has announced that the second board exams for Class 10 students will take place from May 15 to May 21, 2026. This academic year marks the introduction of a new two-board exam system, allowing students the opportunity to enhance their performance in up to three subjects. The exams will be scheduled from 10:30 am to 1:30 pm each day. The specific dates for the exams are as follows: Mathematics on May 15, English on May 16, Science on May 18, various Languages on May 19, skill-based subjects on May 20, and Social Science on May 21. To be eligible for the second exam, students must have passed the first board exam and can reappear for subjects in which they wish to improve their scores. The board will consider the best score from both attempts for the final results. Further details, including admit cards and examination centers, will be provided closer to the exam dates.
