The Karnataka School Examination and Assessment Board (KSEAB) has officially unveiled the timetable for the SSLC (Secondary School Leaving Certificate) and II PUC (Pre-University Course) Annual Examination-1 for the academic year 2023-24. This crucial schedule, revealed on the Board's website on December 1, 2023, serves as a vital roadmap for students, parents, and educators statewide.
Scheduled from March 2 to March 22, 2024, the Secondary PUC Exam-1 spans 21 days, kicking off with the Kannada/Arabic paper and concluding with the Economics paper on March 22, 2024. The examination will adhere to a single shift, running from 10:15 am to 1:30 pm. Meanwhile, the SSLC examination, beginning on March 25, 2024, and concluding on April 6, 2024, extends over a total of 13 days.
To ensure widespread dissemination of this information, the Board urges high school head teachers and pre-graduate college principals to prominently display the timetable in their respective school/college 'publication panels.' This move aims to facilitate a seamless transition into the examination period, enhancing overall preparedness.
The Karnataka School Examination and Assessment Board have provided a 15-day window, from December 1, 2023, to December 15, 2023, for students, parents, and the public to submit objections to the tentative schedule of the Annual Examination-1.

It's crucial to note that objections received after the prescribed deadline of December 15, 2023, will not be entertained. The President of K.S.P & M.N. Mandali emphasizes the significance of adhering to the specified timeline to streamline the examination process and promptly address any concerns.
