Covering Science in Class 10 can become difficult when Physics, Chemistry, Biology and environmental topics have to be revised together. You may find it challenging to keep track of different concepts, diagrams, reactions, and scientific processes while planning your preparation.
The Maharashtra SSC Science Syllabus 2026-27 outlines the chapters and topics you need to cover for the subject. Along with following the syllabus, you can use PW's premium full-syllabus paid batches for additional preparation support. These batches include live lectures, Daily Practice Problems (DPPs) with video solutions, mock tests and 24/7 doubt support, giving you resources for learning, practice and regular revision.
Before starting chapter-wise preparation, you can refer to the following details to understand the scope of the Maharashtra SSC Science subject for the 2026-27 academic year.

Science preparation requires a balance of conceptual understanding, written practice and regular revision. The following subject-specific methods can help you work through the 19 chapters:
Divide the Syllabus into sections: Group Physics, Chemistry, Biology and environmental topics into manageable study blocks.
Understand concepts before memorising: Focus on the meaning and application of scientific concepts instead of relying only on rote learning.
Practise numerical problems: Give regular practice to chapters such as Gravitation, Effects of Electric Current and Heat.
Revise chemical reactions: Maintain a separate revision space for important reactions, equations and properties from Chemistry chapters.
Practise diagrams: Draw and label relevant diagrams from topics such as Lenses, Life Processes and Cell Biology.
Revise biological terms regularly: Topics involving classification, heredity, evolution and microbiology can benefit from repeated short revisions.
Solve previous-year questions: Use past questions to understand how different concepts are tested in the examination.
Take timed practice tests: Attempt questions within a fixed time to improve speed and written-answer practice.
Review mistakes: Keep track of concepts, equations, diagrams or answers that need another revision.
The Maharashtra SSC Science Syllabus 2026-27 consists of 19 chapters covering Physics, Chemistry, Biology and environmental science topics. You can follow the chapter list, revise concepts regularly and practise questions throughout the academic year. For additional preparation support, you can explore the PW Maharashtra Board Class 10 batches for learning and practice resources related to the examination.
