National Examinations Board (NEB)

The NEB Class 12 Science curriculum in Nepal is designed to provide students with a robust understanding of core scientific principles, preparing them for higher education in fields like medicine, engineering, and technology. The curriculum covers subjects like Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics, English, and Nepali. Physics delves into topics such as mechanics, thermodynamics, electromagnetism, optics, and modern physics, complemented by practical experiments like verifying Ohm’s Law and studying the focal lengths of lenses. Chemistry focuses on physical, organic, and inorganic chemistry, with practical sessions including acid-base titrations and qualitative ion analysis. Biology, an optional subject for medical aspirants, covers cell biology, genetics, human and plant physiology, and ecology, with practical work such as microscope studies and ecological surveys. Mathematics, essential for engineering-focused students, includes calculus, algebra, probability, and differential equations. Additionally, English and Nepali aim to enhance communication and cultural understanding. The evaluation comprises theoretical exams (75%) and practical or project work (25%), encouraging a balanced approach to theoretical knowledge and hands-on skills. This comprehensive curriculum equips students with the knowledge and skills necessary for academic and professional success in scientific fields.
