Check CISCE's 2027 regulations and the syllabus for your subject.

Biology is the science of studying life and their interaction with the environment. The ICSE Class 12 Biology syllabus for 2025–26 centers around an understanding of life processes, genetics, ecology, and human physiology. The syllabus builds basic knowledge essential for medical professions, biotechnology, environmental science, and research. It combines theory and lab experiments to develop observation skills, scientific knowledge, and reasoning ability, preparing students for board exams as well as competitive entrance exams.

Practising past papers is the best way to use this syllabus. Gradehunt’s ISC Class 12 test series gives you chapter-wise and full-syllabus papers with detailed evaluation, so you know where you lose marks before the board exam.
