FBISE PRACTICAL BASED ASSESMENT (PBA)
PHYSICS SSC-II
(Curriculum 2006)
Guidelines/instructions for teachers/paper setters:
i. There will be two Sections in PBA paper. In Section-A, there will be one question having
parts in it. Similarly, in Section-B there will be one question having parts in it.
ii. In Section-A, Question No. 1 will be based only on one experiment taken from Part-I of
the list of practicals.
iii. In Section-B, Question No. 2 will be based on multiple experiments taken from Part-II of
the list of practicals.
iv. Weightage of Part-I practicals is 60% while weightage of Part-II practicals is 40% in the
PBA paper.
v. Draw diagram(s) if asked for.
vi. In Practical Based Assessment (PBA), there will be no marks for practical note books
and viva voce. However, students may record procedures, observations, apparatus and
calculation etc., on any type of plain papers/work sheets / practical folder for their
future memory of all aspects of practical performance in order to attempt the PBA
Examination amicably.
vii. It may be noted that performance of all the prescribed practicals is mandatory in the
laboratories during the whole academic year and only those students will be able to
attempt the PBA who will have performed the practicals in the laboratories as per
requirement of each practical.
viii. MCQs will not be asked in PBA paper.
ix. The 0.5 mark question will not be asked in any section of PBA paper.
