Karnataka Examinations Authority (KEA) is all set to conduct the KCET 2022 examination on June 16 and 17, 2022. The Karnataka Common Entrance Test (KCET) 2022 shall be conducted in the pen-and-paper mode, at selected centres across the country. On day 1, test for Biology and Mathematics shall be held from 10:30 am to 11:50 am and 2:30 pm to 3:50 pm, respectively. Similarly, on day 2, Physics and Chemistry subjects shall be organised in the same time slots, respectively.
To ace the KCET 2022 exam, students need to prioritise certain chapters in each subject. Following are the important chapters in Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics and Biology from both 1st and 2nd PUC.
KCET 2022 – Important Chapters in Physics
The KCET 2022 syllabus covers chapters from both I PUC (Class 11) and II PUC (Class 12). As per expert prediction, 17 questions are expected from 1st PUC while 43 questions shall be asked from 2nd PUC in Physics, amounting to an almost 1:3 ratio. Considering this proportion, following is a table of chapters which a candidate must not skip, under any circumstances –
Grade/Class | List of Important Chapters | Weightage/Expected Questions |
I PUC | Motion in 1D Motion in 2D Laws of Motion Rotational Energy | 7-8 Qs expected in total |
II PUC | Electrostatics Current Electricity Moving Charges Magnetism Optics Modern Physics | 8 Qs 6 Qs 5 Qs 6 Qs 8 Qs |
KCET 2022 – Important Chapters in Chemistry
The order of priority in Chemistry syllabus is as follows –
Organic Chemistry > Inorganic Chemistry > Physical Chemistry
Following are the important chapters in Chemistry for KCET 2022 –
Grade/Class | List of Important Chapters | Key Topics or Points |
I PUC | Equilibrium Basic Concepts of Chemistry Structure of Atom Redox Reactions S, P blocks | – |
II PUC | Organic Chemistry (All reactions important) Inorganic Chemistry (D, F blocks Chemical Bonding) Physical Chemistry | Emphasis specifically on name-reactions and mechanism Mostly memory-based questions Emphasis on formulae and numericals |
KCET 2022 – Important Chapters in Mathematics
Calculus is an important aspect of the KCET 2022 syllabus. All those who are well-versed with Integration and Differentiation definitely hold an advantage over others.
