Andhra Pradesh Engineering, Agriculture and Pharmacy Common Entrance Test • Conducted by Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University (JNTU) Kakinada on behalf of APSCHE
Andhra Pradesh Intermediate Board (BIEAP) Curriculum Forming the Core Question Bank
The AP EAPCET syllabus is based on the AP Board of Intermediate Education (BIEAP) Class 11 and 12 curriculum, which closely mirrors the NCERT syllabus followed nationally, making the exam broadly accessible to both AP state board and CBSE-pattern students.

| Subject | Number of Questions | Share of Total Paper |
|---|---|---|
| Mathematics | 80 | 50% |
| Physics | 40 | 25% |
| Chemistry | 40 | 25% |
This 50-25-25 split is a defining characteristic of AP EAPCET's syllabus weightage and should directly inform how candidates allocate their preparation time across subjects.
| Subject Area | Approximate Emphasis Observed |
|---|---|
| Mathematics — Calculus & Coordinate Geometry | Consistently the largest share of Mathematics questions |
| Mathematics — Algebra & Trigonometry | Second-largest share, forming the balance of the section |
| Physics — Mechanics & Electricity/Magnetism | Together account for the bulk of Physics questions |
| Chemistry — Inorganic & Organic Chemistry | Together account for over half of Chemistry questions |
Because the AP EAPCET syllabus is drawn directly from the two-year Intermediate curriculum, and because 25% of the final composite rank comes from Intermediate marks themselves, thorough syllabus coverage effectively serves a dual purpose — strengthening both board exam performance and entrance test readiness simultaneously, rather than requiring two separate preparation tracks.
It is based on the AP Board of Intermediate Education (BIEAP) syllabus, which closely mirrors the NCERT curriculum, making it accessible to both state board and CBSE-pattern students.
Given Mathematics carries exactly 50% of the total questions, it deserves proportionally the highest share of preparation time, though Physics and Chemistry should not be neglected.
Yes, since the syllabus is drawn directly from the Intermediate curriculum, and Intermediate marks contribute 25% to the final composite rank, thorough preparation benefits both simultaneously.
