The Maharashtra board HSC, SSC exams 2022 could be held in the offline mode in February-March 2022.

Maharashtra HSC, SSC Exams 2021-22: Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education (MSBSHSE) is likely to conduct the Maha HSC, SSC Exams 2022 in the offline mode in February/March 2022. Dinkar Patil, chairman, MSBSHSE said that the exams will be held in pen and paper mode only if the Covid-19 situation remains the same for the next five months.

“However, we will be ready for the online mode as well as plan B to ensure that students have no last-minute trouble," he said.

At a recent meeting with state education minister Varsha Gaikwad, along with teachers, school representatives, task force members and education officials, vouched for offline examinations for Maha SSC, HSC to be held in February-March.

State board education officers informed that the department was making preparations for the offline exams. Last year, the exams had been scheduled and later cancelled due to the rise in Covid-19 cases. The concern raised for the conduct of offline exams was of travelling especially in Mumbai where local trains are not allowed for individuals who are not vaccinated.

The state board education officers had visited the Savitribai Phule Pune University recently to know how they conducted the online proctored examination.

“There are over 35 lakh students taking the exam and a feasibility check on the proctored mode was done in case we have to conduct online exams,” he added.

However, the officials stated that the online examination for so many students would be next to impossible.

The board will release a tentative Maharashtra Board HSC, SSC Time Table 2022 on the official website after the Diwali vacations along with the directions on their mode of conduct.
