CBSE Class XII Informatics Practices Exam Tips

Informatics Practices is offered to the students of classes XI and XII with the aim of getting them acquainted with topics like programming, data science, cyber safety and database systems. There is doubt that the subject helps students in staying updated with technology and advancements. However, staying updated with latest developments is often a challenge if students limit themselves to text books.
The subject is also quite scoring if a student plans and studies accordingly. Here are some tips from Informatics Practices subject expert Ashirwad Mahalkari for scoring excellent results:
New programming language ‘Python’
As per CBSE guidelines, the syllabus of Informatics practices has been changed. It now has a new programming language ‘Python’ in place of Java. However the students had choice to opt for old syllabus in class xi last year. So this year CBSE Informatics Practices will have paper based on two different syllabus structures.
Preparing for old syllabus
For old syllabus (Subject Code 265) It is very important to focus more on topics – SQL and Java GUI Programming as they carry most of the marks. Written practice in SQL helps remembering the syntax. Learn the important properties and methods of various Java GUI elements and solve as many output finding questions as possible as this will help in learning process. Students should spend time on computer and solve the given problems practically. The theory chapters should be studied at last.
Important Topics for old syllabus
• Java
• GUI Programming
• MySQL Queries
• Computer Networking
 Preparation for new syllabus
For new syllabus (Subject Code 065), the students really need to have good understanding of Python language basics and different data objects mentioned in the syllabus. The important topics here are
- DataFames, numpy arrays and Plotting. Weightage 30 marks.
- Software Engineering and Society, Law and Ethics. Weightage 25 marks.
- SQL. Weightage around 10 marks
Essentials while studying
The code style of Python is very vast and flexible so it is very important for students to stick with the topics mentioned in CBSE syllabus. The best practice is to search for different topics and questions on internet as many websites provide free question banks and online tests on python language. Try to include the topics mentioned in the syllabus in the project work as the more efforts you put in project work the lesser the workload in theory exam.
