Haryana BSEH Senior Secondary NSQF IT-ITeS exam-day guide
Haryana BSEH Senior Secondary NSQF IT-ITeS · Prepare for the day ahead.
Your checklist
Admit card / hall ticket
Carry a printed copy if your school requires one. Confirm with your school how and when to download it and whether a physical printout is mandatory.
School ID card and one government photo ID
Bring originals, not photocopies. Confirm with your school which ID documents are accepted for the IT-ITeS practical exam.
Practical record file / notebook / project report
Bring the file in the format your subject teacher prescribed. Confirm with your teacher which practicals, observations, and signatures must be complete before the exam.
Blue or black pen, pencil, eraser, sharpener, and ruler
Carry a small transparent pouch. Confirm with your school whether any additional stationery is allowed for the practical.
School uniform or prescribed dress code
Wear the uniform as directed by your school. If you are unsure about the dress code for the practical day, confirm with your class teacher.
Exam centre name, address, and reporting time
Write these down or save them offline. Confirm the exact reporting time and entry gate with your school; do not rely only on a friend's message.
Water bottle and a simple snack
Carry these only if your school or centre allows them. Confirm local centre rules about food and drink before the exam.
No phone, smartwatch, or Bluetooth device
Leave these at home or hand them over as directed. If you need a phone for transport, confirm with your school where it must be deposited before the exam.
Any medical certificate or special-permission document
Bring it only if your school has told you to. Confirm with the exam coordinator whether it must be submitted in advance or on the day.
A short revision list of practicals and viva topics
Keep it in your bag for the final review, not on the exam table. Confirm with your teacher which practicals and viva areas are most likely to be covered.
Plan the day
Collect or download the admit card and check every detail: name, roll number, subject, centre, and exam date. Contact your school immediately if anything is wrong; do not wait until the morning of the exam.
Complete and tidy your practical record file. Get any missing signatures or corrections done while teachers are available. Confirm with your teacher whether the file must be submitted before the practical or brought on the day.
Revise the practical list and viva basics: definitions, tools, steps, safety points, and common errors for the IT-ITeS practicals in your syllabus. Practise explaining your work aloud in short, clear sentences.
Pack your bag: admit card, ID, record file, stationery pouch, water bottle if allowed, and any permitted documents. Keep the bag near the door so nothing is forgotten.
Confirm your transport and reporting time with your school or centre. Plan to arrive early. Check the weather and travel time, and set two alarms.
Eat a normal meal, avoid late-night cramming, and sleep on time. Practical exams reward steady hands and clear thinking more than last-minute memorisation.
Eat breakfast, wear the prescribed uniform, and carry only the allowed items. Leave your phone and smartwatch at home or deposit them as directed. Reach the centre 30–45 minutes before reporting time, or as your school instructs.
Listen carefully to the examiner's instructions. Write your roll number and other details exactly as directed. Read each practical task fully before starting, keep your workplace tidy, and ask the examiner-not other candidates-if an instruction is unclear.
For viva questions, answer in short, direct sentences. If you do not know an answer, say so and explain what you do know rather than guessing wildly. For record-file checks, keep the file open at the page the examiner asks for.
If you need a break, raise your hand and wait for permission. Do not walk around, talk, or share equipment without the examiner's approval. Before leaving, submit any answer sheet or record file as instructed and collect your belongings.
Rules to check
Carry your original admit card and photo ID. Do not lend them to anyone or use another candidate's documents; impersonation is a serious exam offence.
Follow the examiner's instructions on seating, equipment use, and submission. Do not start writing or handling lab equipment until you are told to begin.
Electronic devices such as phones, smartwatches, and Bluetooth earphones are normally not allowed in the exam hall or lab. Confirm with your school if there is any exception, such as a phone deposited at the gate.
Do not communicate with other candidates during the practical or viva. If you need help, raise your hand and speak to the examiner or lab staff.
Ask for permission before leaving your seat for water, washroom, or any other reason. Confirm with the examiner how breaks are handled at your centre.
Practical marks are awarded by the examiner according to the board's scheme, and the record file or viva may form part of the assessment. Confirm the exact weightage and submission requirements with your subject teacher.
Handle computers, tools, and lab equipment carefully. Deliberate damage or unsafe behaviour can be reported and may affect your practical assessment.
Submit your practical record file or project by the deadline your school sets. If you are unsure about late-submission rules, confirm with your school rather than assuming.
