CBSE Class 11 Applied Maths Syllabus 2023-24: Mathematics, as a discipline, is important to students, irrespective of streams. However, CBSE observed that the curriculum of Maths suitable for the students of Science stream might not be the best suited to students from Commerce and Humanities stream. Therefore, CBSE came up with a new Mathematics elective for the 11th and 12th class students - Applied Mathematics. The 11th class Applied Mathematics paper, subject code 241, has been developed with an aim to provide relevant experience and knowledge to the students of Economics, Commerce, Social Sciences and other allied fields. In this article, we have provided the full syllabus of CBSE Class 11 AppliedMathematics as prescribed by the board. Students can also download the PDF of the syllabus from the direct download link given towards the end.
