Karnataka’s School Examination and Assessment Board (KSEAB) has released provisional SSLC and 2nd PUC schedules. SSLC Exam 1 runs March 22 to April 5; Exam 2, May 24 to 31, 2027. 2nd PUC Exam 1 is February 27 to March 17; Exam 2, May 3 to 15. All dates are in 2027. Papers run 10 am to 1 pm; objections close October 22, 2026.
Treat these dates as provisional and cross-check your subjects for sequence gaps. Report clashes, incorrect paper titles, or impractical intervals immediately through the official process. Early feedback helps KSEAB finalise conflicts and reduce exam stress.

Exam 1 is the regular sitting for current-year students finishing coursework. Exam 2 serves absentees, repeaters, and improvement attempts where board rules allow. Seek your school’s advice considering readiness, internal marks, and admission timelines.
Use a clear subject line naming SSLC or 2nd PUC, paper, and date. Include candidate name, register number, institution code, and a reachable phone number. Attach proof like a timetable snippet, syllabus page, or prior notice reference.
After October 22, 2026, KSEAB will review inputs and issue the final timetable. Schools will share admit card timelines and centre instructions for each window. Plan mocks in the 10 am to 1 pm slot, and review dates today.
