I AM GIVING YOU OFFICIAL DATES OF EXAM HERE:

The Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education has fixed dates of higher secondary certificate (HSC) and secondary school certificate (SSC) examinations for the students appearing in 2008-09 session.
According to an official from board office in Nagpur, the HSC examination will start from February 26, while SSC papers will be conducted from March 5. Furthermore, the board has also announced dates of viva-voce and practical exams. The HSC viva-voce and practicals will be conducted from February 6 to 24, while those of SSC will be held from February 12 to 28. The system of multiple question papers will continue this year too.
The examination will be simultaneously conducted in all eight divisions of the board - Mumbai, Pune, Aurangabad, Latur, Kolhapur, Nashik, besides Amravati and Nagpur. Last year, the HSC examination began on February 28 and SSC on March 11.
The dates
HSC exams: Feb 26 SSC exams: March 5 HSC practicals: Feb 6-24 SSC practicals: Feb 12-28 Last chance for old syllabus SSC, HSC students
Nagpur: The official added that the students appearing as per the old syllabus will have last chance to clear HSC and SSC exams. Additionally, the students appearing for Standard XII Minimum Competency Vocational Course would appear in the exams according to the new syllabus.
As per the practice of all these years, this year too, there will be multiple question paper sets for ‘killer’ subjects like mathematics and English to prevent incidents of malpractice during examinations. There will be 30% variation in the four different sets of questions papers.
As far as subject of environment education is concerned, there will be written test of 60 marks and project work of 40 marks.
The scores of written exam and project work have to be submitted by the respective schools to the board office at the earliest. Last year, a major controversy erupted when over 3,000 students were declared failed in the subject as the schools failed to submit their marks in the subject to the board before deadline.
Elaborate police arrangements will be been made at all the centres to prevent students from indulging in unfair means. Furthermore, video shooting of the ‘infamous’ centres would be done. Various flying squads would conduct surprise checks at all the centres, the official said.
