Lovely Professional University does not conduct Class 12 board exams; students follow their respective boards like CBSE or state boards. As per CBSE 2024 timetable, Class 12 exams are generally held from February to March–April, depending on subjects. Students receive the official date sheet from their school, not from LPU. It is important to prepare according to your board schedule and follow school notifications regularly. Early planning helps in better performance.
