CBSE Class 12 2027 countdown: days left

  • Expected — not announced yetCBSE Class 12 boards 2027: February 2027

    CBSE hasn't released the 2027 date sheet yet. The 2026 board exams started on 17 Feb, so expect mid-February.

CBSE hasn't published the 2027 date sheet yet. Last cycle, it issued a tentative date sheet on 24 September 2025 and ran the 2026 board exams from 17 February 2026, so mid-February 2027 is a reasonable expectation.

Until the date is official, this page counts to 1 February 2027, the start of the expected month, so the countdown errs on the early side. It switches to the real date once CBSE publishes it on cbse.gov.in.

What CBSE Class 12 2027 tests

  • CBSE first issues a tentative date sheet and then a final one, after schools submit their final list of candidates.
  • Most theory papers in 2026 ran from 10:30 AM to 1:30 PM.
  • Each subject's marks are split between the theory paper and practical, project or internal assessment, as set out in CBSE's curriculum for that subject on cbseacademic.nic.in.
  • Class 12 has one main board exam a year, plus a supplementary exam. The second board exam CBSE added in 2026 is for Class 10.

Your CBSE Class 12 2027 plan by days left

More than 90 days left

Finish the syllabus in every subject, NCERT first. If you're also preparing for JEE, NEET or CUET, list the chapters the two overlap on and study those once for both.

Keep practical files and projects up to date now, so they don't eat revision weeks later.

61–90 days left

Start a first full revision, one subject block at a time. Work through CBSE's sample question paper and marking scheme for each subject, and notice how the scheme splits marks across the steps of an answer.

31–60 days left

Write full timed papers, a 3-hour sitting at the 10:30 AM start time, at least once a week per major subject. Check them against the marking scheme, not just the answer.

Revise from your own notes and the sample papers rather than new guides.

8–30 days left

JEE Main Session 1 (22–30 January) starts near the end of this window and runs into the next. If you're writing it, keep board revision light that week and pick it up straight after.

Once the final date sheet is out, plan revision around the gaps between papers: hard subjects get the longer gaps.

Last 7 days

Revise the first paper's subject in depth and keep the others warm with short notes. Check your admit card and centre details.

Keep your sleep fixed to the 10:30 AM start time so you're fully awake when the paper begins.

Frequently asked questions

CBSE board exam 2027 kab se shuru honge?

CBSE hasn't announced it yet. The 2026 exams started on 17 February 2026, so mid-February 2027 is likely. This page switches to the official date once CBSE publishes the date sheet.

When will the CBSE 2027 date sheet come out?

No release date has been announced. Last cycle, CBSE published a tentative date sheet on 24 September 2025 and issued the final one after schools submitted their candidate lists.

Is there a second board exam for Class 12?

No. The second board exam CBSE added in 2026 is for Class 10. Class 12 students have the supplementary exam if they need another attempt at a subject.

Why does this countdown say 1 February when exams start mid-February?

Because the 2027 date isn't official yet. Counting to the start of the expected month keeps the countdown on the safe side; it moves to the real first paper once CBSE announces it.
