What to check in Balasore
Only 2 of 34 listings show a renewal date that is still current. An expired date doesn’t always mean the centre has closed, but it is worth confirming before you pay. Balasore (Baleswar) is in north Odisha, on the coast towards West Bengal. The Regional Centre for Balasore is Bhubaneswar. For a normal admission everything happens on the NIOS portal. Do not assume you will sit the exam near home: the exam centre is printed on the hall ticket. A marksheet from BSE Odisha or CHSE with one or two passed subjects is useful here, because NIOS can credit up to two of them. For Balasore, the things we check first are whether a science seat is really available before you choose Physics, Chemistry or Biology, that the centre takes Class 12, not only Class 10 and that the centre’s registration is still current.
