Dealing with CBSE Class 12 post-result stress? Here's how you can deal with it

The CBSE Class 12 examinations were scheduled to end on April 13 with the Physical Education exam. The date line, however, was extended up to April 27 because of Bharat Bandh and the board's decision to cancel the exam due to reports from some parts of the country about the leak of the CBSE Class 12 economics paper and Class 10 maths paper.

CBSE Class 12 economics paper was re-scheduled to April 25 after the paper leak.

11.86 lakh students had registered for Class 12 or all India senior secondary level exams which were held at 4,138 centres in India and 71 centres abroad.

The date for releasing Class 10 results is yet to be announced.
