View Scheme →The Class 10 General Science Pairing Scheme 2027 is designed to help students streamline their preparation for the Punjab Board examinations. Under the new PECTAA syllabus, the paper focuses on Chapters 7 to 11. By analyzing this scheme, you can adopt a targeted approach and focus only on the high-yield topics.
Start with the MCQs distribution. Chapters 7 and 9 carry the highest weightage with 3 MCQs each, while Chapters 8, 10, and 11 carry 2 MCQs each. Since the objective part is worth 12 marks, mastering these chapters is crucial. For short questions, Q.2 covers Chapters 7 and 8 (3 questions each), and Q.3 covers Chapters 9, 10, and 11 (2 questions each). You only need to attempt 4 out of 6 in both sections, giving you the flexibility to skip the toughest questions.
Long questions are the most scoring part. Q.4, Q.5, and Q.6 each have two parts carrying 4 and 3 marks respectively. You have to attempt any two questions out of three. Pay special attention to Chapters 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11, as they form the basis of the long questions. Since there are no theorem questions, focus on conceptual understanding and problem-solving.
This pairing scheme is fully aligned with the PECTAA 2027 curriculum and is applicable to all 9 BISE Punjab boards (Lahore, Gujranwala, Multan, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Sargodha, DG Khan, Bahawalpur, and Sahiwal).
