PATNA, Bihar – The Bihar School Examination Board (BSEB) commenced its mandatory sent-up examinations for Class 10 and Class 12 students on November 19, 2025 . These qualifying exams are being conducted across multiple designated centers throughout Bihar. Students must successfully clear these assessments to be eligible for the final BSEB 10th and 12th board examinations scheduled for 2026. The sent-up examinations serve as a primary assessment of student preparedness and ensure readiness for the main board tests.
Examination Schedule Details
The BSEB sent-up examination period for Class 10 is from November 19 to November 22, 2025 . Class 12 students will take their sent-up exams from November 19 to November 26, 2025 . All students intending to appear for the 2026 final board examinations are required to participate in and pass these preliminary tests. Failure to meet this requirement carries direct consequences for board exam eligibility.
The Bihar School Examination Board’s policy dictates that these exams are a prerequisite for final board exam participation. Students who do not attend these tests, or fail to achieve passing marks in their respective subjects during the sent-up exams, may be disqualified. Such disqualification would prevent them from receiving admit cards for the main board examinations in 2026. This established policy ensures that only adequately prepared candidates proceed to the final stages of the board examination process.
Official Answer Key Release and Access
The Bihar School Examination Board anticipates releasing the official answer keys for both Class 10 and Class 12 sent-up exams in December 2025 . These official keys will be made accessible on the board’s designated online portal, secondary.biharboardonline.com . Students can utilize these answer keys to verify their marked responses and calculate their estimated scores shortly after release.
While unofficial answer keys, often compiled by various educational platforms or subject matter experts, might circulate once the examinations conclude, students must prioritize the official BSEB release. The official keys provide accurate and confirmed answers.
