Karnataka Board 2nd PUC Deleted Syllabus 2023-24: Download in PDF

Karnataka 2nd PUC Deleted Syllabus 2024: The Karnataka School Examination and Assessment Board (KSEAB) will conduct the Class 12 or 2nd PUC exams from March 2, 2024 to March 22, 2024. The syllabus for the 2nd PUC aligns with the NCERT curriculum, so the reduction in the NCERT content will also be applicable for the 2nd PUC. Therefore, students must be aware of the deleted parts of the syllabus to avoid any confusion and prepare the relevant content for the upcoming exams.

In this article, we have provided the list of subject-wise and chapter-wise topics which are not a part of the Karnataka Board 2nd PUC Syllabus 2023-24. Students must go through this reduced syllabus to clearly understand what to prepare and what not for the Karnataka 2nd PUC Exam 2024. The Karnataka Board 2nd PUC deleted syllabus can be downloaded in PDF and referred to when conducting the last minute revision for the exam.
