After examining the previous year ICSE Physics question paper, the teacher said that the Section A was a bit confusing and most of the students seemed to be dissatisfied with it. Paper was definitely lengthy and was conceptual, hence, thorough knowledge of topics is required.

Weightage of Chapters in Physics Class 10 ICSE

Based on previous year exam analysis and feedback given byt he students, it was concluded that marks allotted for ‘Heat’ and ‘Sound’ increased noticeably while that of ‘light’ and ‘Modern Physics’ has decreased. Further, weighatge of marks was maintained for  ‘Force, Power, Work and Energy’. Students can check the blueprint of mark distribution for each unit in ICSE Physics (Science I) Question paper from the table below.
