Commenting on the examination, Poonam Soni, HOD Science, Manav Rachna International School, Sector 46, Gurugram, said that Physics always turn out to be tricky due to the subject’s conceptual nature.
“Questions asked in the CBSE Class 12 Physics board exam were average, application-based and moderately lengthy. The CBSE paper was moderately challenging for average students, but students who would have studied the concepts comprehensively will be able to score well,” Soni said.
The Principal added that some MCQs and case-based questions were tricky and time-consuming, while five markers were NCERT-based. Sections C and D tested analytical, inferential and logical skills of students through competency-based questions.
In Lucknow, many students found the paper lengthy.
Aditya Bajpai, a student of LPS South City said the paper was standard and lengthy. “The ratio of moderate to easy questions was also unbalanced.”
