SEE preparations complete, exam to start 8:00 am nationwide

BHAKTAPUR: The entire preparations have been completed for the Secondary Education Examination (SEE), 2078 BS scheduled to kick off from 8:00 am on April 22, tomorrow simultaneously across the country.

It may be noted that the National Examinations Board had recognized schools’ internal assessments of students for SEE results of two consecutive previous years (2076 and 2077 BS) due to the COVID-19 crisis.      

But the SEE for the academic year 2078 BS (2021-22) is taking place with the physical presence of students.  Board Chair Mahashram Sharma said general health protocols are to be followed in the exam halls. 

He said all districts have already received the materials required for conducting the exams including question papers and answer sheets. 

Controller of SEE Examination, Arjun Rayamajhi informed RSS that there were 2,007 exam centres for SEE across the country.  

A total of 514,967 students: 257,053 girls and 157,914 boys from 11,615 schools will be attending the exam in the regular category.   

Likewise, 11,454 students will be sitting in the exam for grade improvement that has been halted since the past two years and 14,564 students towards technical streamline will be appearing in the exam. 

This time, the least 43 SEE students are from Manang.  Similarly, 20 students from a school operated by a Nepali in Japan will be sitting in the exam. RSS
