This page will guide students through the detailed CBSE Class 12 Syllabus and Marking Scheme for 2024-25. Students appearing for the Class 12 board exams can access the latest syllabus and learn about chapter-wise weightage and marking patterns.
Class 12 board exams are pivotal for students as they mark the final step in school education. With the right strategy and preparation, students can score well in their exams. On this page, we have compiled the complete syllabus and marking scheme for the key subjects of Science, Commerce, and Arts streams
CBSE has a specific marking scheme for Class 12 board exams. It is important for students to understand how their answers will be evaluated.
The marking scheme will help students understand how their performance will be evaluated. This is crucial for preparing for the exam effectively. Each subject in Class 12 has a defined marking scheme split between theory and practical/internal assessment (where applicable).
Below is the marking scheme breakdown:
For Science Subjects
Internal Assessment (Periodic Test, Notebook Submission, etc.) – 20 marks
Theory Exam – 80 marks
For Other Subjects
Internal Assessment (Periodic Test, Practical, etc.) – 20 marks
Theory Exam – 80 marks
