The CBSE chairman Ashok Ganguly said on Tuesday that apart from bringing the changes in the science syllabus, the board had decided also to enhance the weightage given to practical exams from 25 marks to 40 from the upcoming academic year 2006-07. The theory paper will now be of 60 marks and not of 75 marks as at present.
In the case of science practical examinations, 20 marks will be reserved for internal assessment and the rest for the theory examinations. To be of 90 minutes duration, the theory part of the practical examination will have 30 questions divided into two parts: Part A and Part B.
