The Class 12 examination is being conducted from Monday. The National Examination Board has stated that 418,08 candidates will appear in the examination. The board is preparing to make the results public within one and a half months (45 days) of the end of the examination. The examination will end on 27 Baisakh.
According to the board, there are 332,178 candidates in the regular stream of the Class 12 examination. Of these, 172,120 are male, 160,137 are female and 29 others. 85,830 students are appearing in the partial stream. Students from 2079 onwards will appear in the partial stream. 39 students from Japan's Everest School are also appearing in the examination. Kathmandu district has the highest number of 64,338 and Manang has the lowest number of 31 candidates.
Examination Controller Krishna Prasad Sharma said that the number of examination centers has also been reduced due to the decrease in the number of candidates compared to last year. According to him, 1,421 examination centers have been designated this year. Last year, there were 511,525 candidates. At that time, there were 1,591 examination centers. When the results of the examination were published in Shrawan, 61.17 percent of students were 'graded' (eligible for higher level studies), which is an improvement of 9 percent compared to the previous year. The board has stated that the number of students has decreased partially this year as there has also been an improvement in the results of the grade promotion examination.
44,304 people, including center heads, assistant center heads, inspectors, employees, office assistants and security personnel, are being mobilized to conduct the Class 12 examination. Examination Controller Sharma said that the exam materials along with the answer sheets have been sent to the examination centers. The question papers have been sent online since the Covid pandemic. Arrangements have been made to print the question papers received online at the examination center on the day of the examination and distribute them to the examinees. The question papers are 'downloaded' and 'printed' in the presence of the police deployed at the center, including the center head, assistant center head.
As directed by Prime Minister Balendra Shah and Education Minister Sasmit Pokharel to make the results public within one and a half months, preparations have been made for conducting the examination, checking the answer sheets and publishing the results, said Member Secretary Jung Bahadur Aryal. 'We will add an answer sheet testing center. We are issuing circulars to subordinate bodies accordingly,' he said, 'All mechanisms will be mobilized to publish the results quickly.' The answer sheet testing will be conducted only at the center designated by the board like last year. Earlier, the results were published within 90 days (3 months). The answer sheets of Class 10 (SEE) were tested at the examination center this year. The SEE results are ready to be published within 1 month (mid-Baishakh) of the examination. According to the Examination Controller's Office, the work of 'entry' and verification of scores is underway after the SEE answer sheet testing is completed.
The exam will be canceled if the examinee uses a mobile phone
The board has stated that Class 12 students should reach the examination center half an hour before the examination begins. The exam will be conducted at the same time in examination centers across the country from 8 am to 11 am. 'Candidates who arrive after 15 minutes of the exam start will not be allowed to participate in the exam,' the schedule states.
Candidates are prohibited from changing the exam center to participate. The board has stated that mobile phones, smart watches and other electronic devices are prohibited from being taken into the exam hall. 'No one other than the center head is completely prohibited from taking mobile phones into the exam center during the exam period,' the board said in a statement.

The board has stated that the exam for all subjects will be canceled if the examinee uses a mobile phone.
