CBSE Class 12 Science Last 100 Days Plan 2027 — PCM and PCB

CBSE Class 12 Science last 100 days plan for 2027: 15-week PCM and PCB schedule, unit marks, JEE Main Jan 20-28 overlap, practicals and revision phases.

In short: CBSE has not released the 2027 date sheet yet, but last year's Class 12 theory exams started on February 17. With about 112 days left, this guide gives a 15-week plan from Monday, November 2 to Sunday, February 14 for both PCM and PCB students. It covers verified unit marks for Chemistry, Maths and Biology, the Physics units whose marks I could confirm, and the overlap with JEE Main Session 1 (January 20 to 28, 2027). Watch one risk: JEE Main Session 2 is tentatively April 2 to 7, and last year's CBSE Class 12 papers ran until April 9 or 10, so check your date sheet for clashes.

Last updated: October 28, 2026. Dates will be updated when CBSE publishes the official date sheet.

See our Biology weightage guide.

Physics (70 marks)

EdexLive's 2026-27 breakdown reports Electrostatics at 16 marks, the Magnetic Effects of Current and Magnetism block at 17 marks and Electronic Devices at 7 marks (EdexLive). I could confirm only those three units, so check the full unit list in the official CBSE syllabus PDF. Our Physics weightage guide and derivations list cover the rest.

The JEE Main and NEET Overlap

SituationWhat to do
JEE Main Session 1: January 20 to 28, 2027Plan it as a mock-style attempt inside your board prep. Our JEE and boards together guide shows how
Practicals expected in JanuaryCheck your school's practical dates against your JEE exam day and city allotment
JEE Main Session 2 tentatively April 2 to 7Last year CBSE Class 12 ran until April 9 or 10. If 2027 is similar, a clash is possible. Read the CBSE date sheet carefully
NEET aspirants (PCB)Class 12 NCERT Biology is the base for both. See NEET and boards together

I did not find confirmed NEET 2027 dates, so this plan does not assume them.

The Four Phases (15 Weeks)

PhaseWeeksDatesGoal
1. Complete and revise once1 to 6Nov 2 to Dec 13Finish every chapter. Write derivations and reactions by hand
2. Practise by topic7 to 10Dec 14 to Jan 10Numericals, assertion-reason, case-based sets. Start the mistake notebook
3. Full papers and practicals11 to 13Jan 11 to Jan 31Timed full papers. JEE Session 1 week for PCM. Practical exams
4. Final revision14 to 15Feb 1 to Feb 14Derivations, named reactions, diagrams, formulas. Light revision only

Week-by-Week Plan: Phase 1

This assumes your school has covered a good part of the syllabus. Compress it if you are behind.

WeekDatesPhysicsChemistryMaths (PCM)Biology (PCB)
1Nov 2 to 8ElectrostaticsSolutions, ElectrochemistryRelations and Functions, Inverse TrigonometryReproduction chapters
2Nov 9 to 15Current Electricity, Magnetic EffectsChemical Kinetics, d and f BlockMatrices, DeterminantsPrinciples of Inheritance
3Nov 16 to 22EMI and AC, EM WavesCoordination Compounds, HaloalkanesContinuity and DifferentiabilityMolecular Basis of Inheritance, Evolution

Week-by-Week Plan: Phases 2 to 4

WeekDatesFocus
7Dec 14 to 20Physics numericals on Electrostatics and Current Electricity. Chemistry numericals: Solutions, Electrochemistry, Kinetics. Maths Calculus sets. Biology genetics problems
8Dec 21 to 27Optics numericals and ray diagrams. Organic conversions. Vectors and 3D. Biology diagrams
9Dec 28 to Jan 3Case-based and assertion-reason sets in all subjects. English writing formats
10Jan 4 to 10Section-wise sample papers. Mark with the official scheme. Begin the mistake notebook review
11Jan 11 to 17Full timed papers: Physics and Chemistry. Then Maths or Biology
12Jan 18 to 24PCM: JEE Main Session 1 days (Jan 20 to 24) plus a light board revision. PCB: full Biology paper and practical preparation
13Jan 25 to 31Reset after JEE day Jan 28. Full papers: English and the remaining subject. Complete practical files
14Feb 1 to 7Derivations, reactions, formulas, diagrams. Four short daily slots
15Feb 8 to 14Light revision. Stationery, admit card and travel plan. Sleep

Daily Routine (Illustrative)

Time blockActivity
Morning, 1.5 hoursHardest subject of the day: concepts and derivations
After school, 2 hoursNumericals or problem practice
Evening, 1 hourSecond subject, short revision
Night, 30 minutesMistake notebook and tomorrow's plan

The 2026 CBSE Class 12 topper reported 2 to 3 hours of regular daily study (NDTV). That topper was a Commerce student, so treat it as an example of consistency. For Science, 5 to 6 focused hours in this phase is a common target. Quality of practice matters more than the number of hours.

Writing for the Scanner

If CBSE continues On-Screen Marking for Class 12 in 2027, your answer book is read as a scanned image. Practise the habits in our guides on writing answers for on-screen marking and step marking. OSM for 2027 had not been officially confirmed at the time of writing. See what we know.

Common Mistakes in the Last 100 Days

MistakeFix
Chasing JEE or NEET at the cost of boardsBoards decide eligibility and fallback options. Use the overlap, do not neglect either
Reading derivations instead of writing themWrite each derivation weekly with all steps
Skipping the practical fileIt is 30 marks in Physics, Chemistry and Biology
Leaving Biology diagrams to the endPractise labelled diagrams from Week 1
Not checking the date sheet for clashesCompare it with JEE Session 2 and any other exam you plan to take

Frequently Asked Questions

When will the CBSE Class 12 date sheet 2027 be released?

It had not been released as of October 28, 2026. Reports expected it between October 27 and 31. Practical exams are expected in January 2027 and theory in mid-February.

Is 100 days enough for CBSE Class 12 Science?

If you have covered most of the syllabus, yes. This plan gives about 15 weeks. If you are far behind, prioritise high-mark units first, such as Calculus, Electrochemistry and Genetics, and use shorter daily blocks.

How should I plan for JEE Main Session 1 and boards together?

Treat Session 1 (January 20 to 28) as a checkpoint. Do light board revision on exam days, resume full papers after January 28 and keep the practicals in view. Read our JEE Session 1 last 15 days strategy.

Which Chemistry chapters carry the most marks?

Electrochemistry carries 9 marks, Aldehydes, Ketones and Carboxylic Acids 8, and several chapters carry 7. Organic chapters together carry 33 of 70 marks.

Has the Class 12 exam pattern changed for 2027?

No. CBSE said the question paper design and assessment pattern are unchanged for 2026-27, with 50% competency-based questions.

How many practical marks are there?

Thirty marks in Physics, Chemistry and Biology. Maths and English have 20 marks of internal assessment. You must pass theory and practical or internal separately, with 33% in each.
