Students should refer to the latest admit card and examination routine for the timing applicable to their particular subject. WBCHSE also maintains a dedicated routine section on its official website for Semester III examinations.
The Council has directed schools to ensure strict invigilation during the Semester III examinations. Students should carry only the materials permitted by WBCHSE and follow all instructions issued by their school and the examination centre.
Students should reach the examination venue sufficiently early for entry and verification and must carry their admit card on every examination day. Candidates should carefully check the examination centre, subject and reporting instructions before each paper.
WBCHSE has also issued separate notifications and arrangements concerning examination administration, OMR sheets and provisions for candidates requiring specific support.
Students can check and download the official routine through the WBCHSE website. The Council's routine page provides the Semester III Higher Secondary Examination 2027 timetable.
Students should download the latest version of the timetable and not rely on older copies, particularly because WBCHSE has issued a partially revised routine.
The WB Class 12 Semester 3 Board Exams 2027 are scheduled from September 21 to October 14, 2026. Students should follow the updated subject-wise timetable and regularly check the official WBCHSE website for any further examination-related notifications.
