In a statement released on Monday, the ministry detailed updated timings for the opening of examination centers and reiterated key regulations for candidates. These adjustments are designed to optimize the conditions under which the national exam will be conducted, thereby improving organizational efficiency at various examination sites.
Examination centers will now open their doors to candidates at 7:15 AM each morning, fifteen minutes earlier than the standard time, with access permitted until 8:00 AM. For afternoon sessions, centers will open at 1:45 PM, fifteen minutes ahead of the usual 2:00 PM start, and remain open until 2:30 PM.

Furthermore, educational authorities reminded all candidates of the mandatory requirement to surrender mobile phones and any other electronic devices capable of communication, storage, or information retrieval to the reception staff upon arrival. This directive is crucial for preventing breaches of current regulations and safeguarding candidates from penalties associated with the possession or use of unauthorized electronic equipment within examination premises.
The Ministry of National Education also urged all candidates to exhibit discipline and adhere strictly to the organizational protocols. Candidates are encouraged to comply with the established rules to foster an atmosphere of tranquility, transparency, and equal opportunity throughout the examination period.
Through these proactive measures, the ministry aims to establish all necessary conditions for the successful execution of this significant national event, providing candidates with an environment conducive to performing their best.
