No Entry for Students Arriving More Than 5 Minutes Late: SSC Board

The SSC Board has decided that students arriving more than five minutes late for the 10th-grade exams will not be allowed to enter the examination centers. This decision was made to enforce punctuality among students. The 10th-grade exams are scheduled to begin on the 18th of this month, and the board has made all necessary arrangements for the smooth conduct of these exams. The board has advised students to arrive at the exam centers well before the scheduled time to avoid any last-minute rush.

To prevent the mix-up of question papers, as seen in the past, the board has implemented several measures. In case of any discrepancy with the paper code, subject, or medium, students are instructed to immediately report to the chief superintendent or departmental officers.

There is a possibility of confusion on the day of the Telugu exam, where regular 10th-grade students have exams with codes 10T and 02T for 80 marks. On the same day, Telugu students in the composite course have an exam for 60 marks under the code 03T. The distribution of these two sets of papers has caused confusion among invigilators. A similar issue exists for the Urdu subject. As a solution, the education department has decided to issue composite question papers on colored paper to distinguish them easily.
