The All India Sainik Schools Entrance Examination (AISSEE) 2026 was conducted on 18 January 2026 for admissions to Classes 6 and 9 across Sainik Schools in India. Students across the country appeared for the offline, OMR‑based test and are now tracking updates related to the answer key release and solutions.
AISSEE 2026 Unofficial Answer Key Updates and PDF
Following the conclusion of the exam, several coaching platforms and unofficial sources have published memory‑based solutions and unofficial answer key PDFs that allow candidates to cross-check responses and estimate exam performance. These keys are not official but serve as early references until formal keys are issued by the testing agency for score evaluation. Students should treat these unofficial answer keys as indicative only and await the provisional official answer key for accurate score calculation.
Expected Official Answer Key Release & Challenge Window
The National Testing Agency (NTA), which administers AISSEE, typically releases the provisional official answer key a few weeks after the exam, followed by a period during which candidates can challenge specific answer entries by paying a processing fee per question. After considering objections, the final official answer key is published. While NTA has not officially confirmed the exact release date, past trends suggest that the AISSEE answer key may be made public between mid‑February and late February 2026, roughly 25–35 days after the exam date. Once available, it will be accessible on the NTA’s official exam portal.
What Candidates Should Know?
- The answer key release helps students estimate possible marks before results are declared.
- Candidates will have a challenge window post provisional key release to raise objections.
- The final answer key forms the basis for result preparation.
