CBSE Physics Practical Syllabus for Class 11 2024: Download PDF

CBSE Class 11 Physics Practical Syllabus 2024: CBSE curriculum for class 11th has 10 units, overall. Although the paper is  marks, only 70 marks come from the Theory part. The remaining 30 marks are based on Practicals. The school must allocate a total of 60 periods of classes for the conduction of the practicals. CBSE curriculum mentions in detail the evaluation scheme, list of experiments and activities to be performed by the 11th class students. Paying attention in all practical classes and maintaining records is very essential for the candidates not just because of the 30 marks coming from this section but also because a strong hold on these will help students in their 11th class as well. So, check CBSE Class 11th Physics Practical syllabus 2023-24 from this article.
