Results of the Secondary School Certificate (SSC) and equivalent examinations 2015 will be published on May 30.
Education Minister Nurul Islam Nahid made the disclosure to the reporters after the regular cabinet meeting on Monday at the secretariat.
The examinations began on February 6 across the country amid the non-stop countrywide transport blockade.
A total of 1,479,256 students from 27,808 institutions across the country under the 10 educational boards appeared for the examinations held at 3,116 exam centres.
Of the total, 763,339 are male students and 715,927 are female students.
Some 1,110,339 students appeared from the general education board, 256,380 from the madrasa board and 110,295 from the technical education board.
Two hundred and ninety-seven students appeared at eight centres from abroad for the public examinations.
The SSC exams were shifted twice within a week from the original date of February 2 to February 4 and then again to Friday, due to the BNP-led alliance’s sudden nationwide hartal.
The BNP-led alliance’s 72-hour hartal which started on February 1 was extended another 36 hours up to Thursday evening.
A countrywide transport blockade was effective since January 6.
