According to BSE Odisha, the exam will be held in two sittings:
- Regular students in the first sitting

Before listing the timetable, it is important to understand that the Odisha HSC exam pattern continues to follow a combined approach where the objective MCQ section is conducted first using an OMR sheet, followed by the subjective section. The vocational structure includes theory and practical components, with separate weightage for both. Students are advised to thoroughly review subject-wise duration, as variations apply to Mathematics, vocational trade subjects, and TLV papers.
