BSE Odisha Class 10 board exam 2023 dates out: Details here

The Board of Secondary Education (BSE), Odisha, will conduct this year's matriculation examinations between March 10 and March 17 for Odia medium students. Around six lakh students are expected to appear in the matriculation examination this year in regular, ex-regular, madhyama (Sanskrit), and Open School Certificate streams.

This year, the BSE will conduct a total of six assessments for Class 10 students in a year, including four formative assessments (FAs) and two summative assessments (SAs), reported PTI.

While the students have already appeared FA-I, FA-II and SA-I, they are now appearing FA-III and will appear FA-IV in the month of February, informed BSE President Ramashis Hajra on Thursday.


He said the final examination for the Class 10 students to be held from March 10 to March 17 will be known as Summative Assessment II (SA-II).

"Fixed percentage of marks drawn from all the six assessment tests will add up to arrive at the final result of a student", he said.

Bringing massive relief for both students and their parents, the board also on the day announced that the SA-II would be held at the same examination centres where the students wrote their SA-I papers held in the month of November last year.

The board has also decided to retain the pattern of questions for the SA-II as that of SA-I, Hajra said.
