What you need

  • Class 12 Mathematics (matrices, determinants, differential equations, 3D geometry)

Questions

Which syllabus does this subject follow?

It follows the B.Sc Mathematics Semester 2 syllabus of the UP State Universities (NEP 2020 common minimum syllabus). Where your own university's syllabus differs, the centre follows your university syllabus.

How are students assessed at the centre?

Through unit-wise multiple-choice tests, a final test paper and doubt-clearing sessions that follow the university examination pattern.

Will this help in the semester examination?

Yes. Units are taught in the university order with solved numericals and exam-pattern questions.
