Social , Physics, Chemistry, Computer, Arts and Hindi are to be scheduled starting from 2nd March and ending on 8th March with Sunday being an off day, not necessarily in the same order. Each of the exams has different time duration: 40 minutes, 50 minutes, 60 minutes, 75 minutes, 90 minutes and 100 minutes, again not necessarily in the same order. 8th march is not Sunday and an exam of 40 minutes is scheduled on that date.

The exam schedule on Saturday is of 100 minutes. There are two exams scheduled between Hindi exam which is for 100 minutes and Chemistry exam which is for 60 minutes. Using the above mentioned hints, we have drawn a table shown below. Social exam is for less than 60 minutes and is scheduled immediately before Arts exam. Arts exam is before Sunday and there are two days between Sunday and Social exam. After using the above hints our table looks like this.

Here, we can fill the rest of the slots easily with Physics exam on Tuesday and duration of 90 min. for Arts exam. The final puzzle is as follows:
