PCM and PCB

Physics and Chemistry are identical for both groups

If you take both groups, prepare these once and divide the remaining time between Mathematics and Biology

Std XI and Std XII Mathematics

Trigonometry II, Straight Line, Circle and Conic Sections lead into Trigonometric Functions and Pair of Straight Lines; Limits and Continuity lead into Differentiation; Probability leads into Probability Distributions

Revise each Std XI chapter just before its Std XII follow-up

Std XI and Std XII Physics

Std XI Electrostatics and Semiconductors are the base for the Std XII chapters of the same name

Study them as one unit

HSC board and MHT CET

Both use the same Std XII textbooks

Board study builds concepts; add timed MCQ practice for CET speed
