CBSE Deleted Syllabus For Class 12 Biology: Biology is a very important and main subject of Class 11and Class 12 Science stream. Biology is a subject of the Medical stream. Biology is a theoretical and concept-based subject. So if a student’s concepts are not clear, he/she cannot score good marks in this subject. So student needs to practice well for scoring high marks in this subject. Class 11 must study thoroughly each and every subject so as to create a strong base for class 12.

Due to the Covid-19 situation, no proper school functioning is taking place. There is increasing stress on student’s shoulders and it is very difficult to cover the entire syllabus in online classes. So CBSE has decided to reduce the syllabus by 30% of all classes.
