The scores of the practical test will be posted on the council’s official website upmsp.edu.in by the school principals.

The Uttar Pradesh pre-board practical test for students of class 12 will be administered at the school level by middle school administrators from January 5 to January 12, 2024.

The announcement states that in order to maintain the integrity of the tests and facilitate a seamless testing process, principals are required to oversee practical exams that are monitored by CCTV. The recordings will be securely stored on a DVR by the Principal, who will be obligated to give them to the Council’s regional office on demand.

The number of candidates registering for the UP Board exams has clearly decreased this year. A total of 55,08,206 students have enrolled for the 2024 exam. According to reports, 58, 86, 634 pupils have enrolled for the 2023 board examinations.

UPMSP officials claim that the stringent tests and anti-copying policies put in place by the board are mostly to blame for the 3,76,428 decrease in the number of students enrolled for the final examinations. Last year, the UP government imposed many harsh penalty guidelines for anybody caught cheating.
