Physics is the core science subject — an A+ comes from understanding the concepts and solving numerical problems, not from memorising formulas.
This page brings together the subject code, paper structure, mark distribution, syllabus topics and the study approach that earns the highest marks in SSC Physics.
Physics at a glance
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| Subject | Physics |
| Subject code | 136 |
| Papers | 1 |
| Group | Science |
| Mark distribution | Creative 50 + MCQ 25 + Practical 25 = 100 |
| Practical | Yes — a practical/lab component counts towards the total |
| Class | Class 9-10 |
Boards and the NCTB revise subject codes and mark distribution from time to time. Confirm both against your board’s latest notice and the published NCTB syllabus before filling in your exam form.
What the syllabus covers
SSC 2027 runs on the full syllabus, so Physics covers all of the following:
- Physical quantities and measurement, units and measuring instruments
- Motion, force, Newton’s laws and momentum
- Work, power and energy; transformation of energy
- States of matter and pressure, buoyancy
- Heat, temperature and the effect of heat on matter
- Waves and sound
- Reflection and refraction of light, lenses and mirrors
- Static electricity, current electricity and circuits
- Modern physics, electronics and physics in medicine
- Practical: the prescribed experiments and lab notebook (25 marks)
This is a topic list — chapter order and numbering may differ in your edition. Download the definitive syllabus from the NCTB website (nctb.gov.bd).
How to score well in Physics
- Note the unit and dimension of every quantity — losing marks to a wrong unit is the single commonest mistake.
- On the higher parts of a creative question, show the calculation and finish with a one-line conclusion.
- Write up the principle and precautions for each experiment in advance — the practical is a guaranteed 25 marks.
- Motion, electricity and light generate the most numerical questions — give them the most time.
A preparation routine that works
- Read the textbook chapter yourself first and get the core idea — starting with a guide book leaves the concept half-formed.
- After each chapter write a one-page note in your own words: definitions, formulas or key points, and an example.
- Solve that chapter’s creative and MCQ questions from past board papers, then check your answers.
- Reserve one day a week for revision only — skim every earlier chapter note.
- Sit at least one full timed model test a month, then work out exactly where you are losing marks.
Frequently asked questions
The subject code for Physics is 136. You need this exact code on your exam form and on a board-challenge application, so cross-check it with your board’s notice.
Physics has a single paper. Mark distribution: Creative 50 + MCQ 25 + Practical 25 = 100.
