What Is the 2nd PUC Syllabus in 2021 for Karnataka?

2nd PUC Syllabus - Presidency PU College Mangalore

Going to pre-university is one of the most rewarding and formative periods in life. New places to explore, experiences to live, people to meet, and knowledge to acquire. However, in January 2020, everything took a turn for the worse. The outbreak of COVID-19 affected the lives of all sections of society as people were asked to self-quarantine in their homes to prevent the spread of the virus. 

A year and a half later when it seemed like the dust was settling, the second wave stumped the population of India. Once again, the board exams of 12th grade were postponed from 24 May to 16 June 2021. Department of Pre-University Education, Karnataka, reduced the class XII board exam syllabus by 30% for the academic session 2020-21. 

This blog post guides you through the Karnataka 2nd PUC syllabus 2020-21, to help you better prepare and ace your board examinations.
