He noted that 42 operations rooms have been established across central and field locations, operating around the clock to monitor exam proceedings and provide immediate support. The ministry is also working in close coordination with the Public Security Directorate (PSD) and Civil Defense to respond quickly to any health or technical emergencies.

This year's exams mark a milestone, as they are the final round following the old system for students born in 2007. Students born in 2008 will be tested under a new system, though the question format will remain similar to previous years.
Regarding grading, Shehadeh explained that over 9,000 teachers have been assigned to handle the correction process. Results are expected to be announced in the first third of August, approximately 20 to 30 days after the final exam session.
