The West Bengal Council of Higher Secondary Education (WBCHSE) has detailed its examination schedule and student-centric modifications for the 2026 Higher Secondary examinations. The examination period is set to commence on February 12th and conclude on February 27th, 2026, covering Semester 4 and Semester 3 supplementary exams.
A significant adjustment includes providing students an extra 10 minutes to thoroughly review the question paper and complete necessary details on their answer scripts. This aims to reduce exam-related stress and improve candidate performance.
Furthermore, the Sanskrit examination will introduce a flexible approach for Part 2 short answer questions. Students can opt to answer question number two using Sanskrit, Bangla, or English, enhancing accessibility for a wider range of learners.
Admit cards for the WB HS exams in 2026 will be available for collection from respective schools on January 28, 2026. Students must carry their admit cards on all examination days, as entry will be denied without it. Textbooks for Semester II, specifically Bengali versions of Business Mathematics and Business Statistics (BMBS) and Basic Mathematics for Social Sciences (BMSS), will be released at Vidyasagar Bhavan's Book Mart starting January 22, 2026.
