ALLEN Expert’s Review:

As per the experts from ALLEN Overseas, the CBSE Class 12 Biology paper was well-received by students.

Section B contained fewer direct questions and was relatively easier.
Section C presented a blend of theoretical and application-based inquiries, including a few analytical questions of moderate complexity.
Section D contained two case-based questions, which were easy to solve.
Section E incorporated competency-based questions that emphasised concepts of application and analysis.

The level of the biology paper was moderate. MCQs were high-scoring. However, a few subjective questions were tricky and required critical thinking. It was a balanced question paper, combining application and memory-based questions. The questions ranged from simple to tricky but were mostly direct and simple. Overall, most questions were directly from the NCERT textbooks, which made it easier for students who had studied the prescribed syllabus thoroughly.
