In a statement released on Monday, the ministry detailed updated timings for the opening of examination centers. These centers will now welcome candidates earlier in the morning, opening at 7:15 AM instead of the usual time, with access permitted until 8:00 AM. For afternoon sessions, centers will open at 1:45 PM, a shift from the prior 2:00 PM opening, with entry allowed until 2:30 PM. These adjustments to center opening times do not affect the official examination schedule.
The ministry also reiterated strict regulations regarding electronic devices. Candidates are required to surrender mobile phones and any other electronic equipment capable of communication, storage, or information retrieval to the reception staff upon arrival. This directive is in place to prevent any breaches of regulations and to safeguard candidates from sanctions related to the use or introduction of unauthorized electronic devices within examination venues.
Furthermore, the Ministry of National Education urged all candidates to demonstrate discipline and adhere meticulously to the implemented organizational protocols. The appeal is for candidates to comply with the established rules to foster an atmosphere of tranquility, transparency, and equal opportunity during the examinations.
Through these proactive measures, the ministry seeks to create an optimal environment for the national examinations, ensuring all necessary conditions are met for a successful and fair testing experience for all students.
