# Kerala Plus Two Physics Important Questions

Class 12 Physics is a very important subject for plus two students and so they prepare ahead hoping to do well in the exams. They reach out to all resources ranging from textbooks to class notes, solution books, previous year question papers, model question papers etc so that they can study well and also get the practice to write the exams well. We at BYJU’s catering to this requirement have compiled some important questions for class 12 Kerala Board students.

We will see here also how the Kerala Plus Two Physics Important Questions can help students to prepare for the upcoming board exams. It gives students the confidence to write exams and also face the boards without fear. They gain more practice in solving the questions of physics. The important question papers are created on the basis of the Kerala Board Plus Two Physics syllabus, thus covering all the important topics and concepts taught in the subject.

Get here an overview of the important physics question for class 12 Kerala Board:
