About Punjab
PSEB’s Class XII Scheme of Studies states the 33% floor separately in theory, practical, and internal assessment as well as in aggregate — a three-way split students often miss when they only check overall percentage.
What this calculator does
Enter the child’s date of birth and admission year. Age is computed as on 31 March of the admission year, then checked against the 3+ minimum for Nursery.
Private schools may publish additional internal windows; government Sarvodaya / DoE notices remain the authority for public seats.
