    • Atharva, it depends on your preferences.
      Physics – highly conceptual. you will have to understand the concepts. this needs thorough reading.
      Mathematics – need practice (was the most tricky one for me). You will have to solve a lot of questions in it.
      Chemistry – this shouldn’t be time-consuming. All you have to do is focus while learning so that you don’t forget. Make notes so that you can revise frequently.

  1. Sakshi, It varies every year. last year more number of questions were asked from 11th. Generally, more questions are asked from coordinate geometery, 3D Geometry and Diffrential Calculus.
    solve as many questions as you can from ncert and other reference books. you can check last 10 years question papers for paper pattern.
