Exam Mode	Offline, Pen & Paper (OMR based), Objective (MCQ) type
Total Questions	120 Multiple Choice Questions (90 subject +30 GS)
Marks per Question	3 marks each — Total 360 marks
Negative Marking	negative marking is introduced now
Duration	2 Hours
Paper Sections	GS and Concerned Subject (Science)
Weightage Focus	The Concerned Subject (Science) carries the single largest share of the paper — this is where preparation time should be concentrated

ABOUT THIS STUDY MODULE

This document compiles the official UP TGT Science syllabus (Subject Code 05) into a structured, teachable module — organised exactly the way the Adhyayanam faculty team delivers it through recorded video lectures and live stream classes. Each topic has been broken down into manageable units, mapped to an estimated question-paper weightage derived from an analysis of previous years' papers, and paired with a video-lecture count so that students can plan their preparation timeline with precision.

The syllabus is divided into two sections as prescribed: Section A – Physics and Section B – Chemistry. Detailed module-wise breakdowns for both sections follow on the next pages.

PREVIOUS-YEAR QUESTION-PAPER PATTERN — WEIGHTAGE ANALYSIS

Based on Adhyayanam faculty's analysis of previous years' UP TGT Science papers, the relative emphasis given to each topic within Physics and Chemistry is summarised below. These figures are indicative planning estimates — used internally to sequence the video curriculum and mock-test difficulty — and should be read alongside the official syllabus, not as a substitute for it.

Section A — Physics

Topic	Relative Weightage	Approx.
General Physics (Mechanics)	█████████████░░░	16%
Heat	████████░░░░░░░░	10%
Waves & Oscillations	██████░░░░░░░░░░	7%
Optics	█████████░░░░░░░	11%
Electricity & Magnetism	███████████░░░░░	14%
Modern Physics	██████████░░░░░░	12%

High-priority zones (highest bars above) receive proportionally more recorded lectures, extra practice sheets and dedicated live doubt-clearing sessions in the Adhyayanam study plan.
