Hi aspirant,

The core pattern for the HSC students remains the same that includes:

• Exam for each subject is held for 100 marks, wherein 80 marks are allotted to theory and 20 marks to practicals/oral/project.
• For subjects: Geology, Biology, Physics, Chemistry, agriculture science and technology, and animal science and technology - 70 marks are allotted for theory exam and 30 marks are fixed for practical/oral/project.

However there have been introduced some changes and additions to the past pattern to help the students with studies in this difficult condition of pandemic which are as following:

• Addition of 25 per cent objective questions: These objective type questions will be in the form of Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs).
• Decrease in total marks for final assessment: From the next academic session, total marks for Class 12 students will be 600 marks instead of 650 marks.
• The education board has introduced an internal assessment or practical exam of 20 marks for all subjects of class 12.

Hope it helps!!
