If someone is preparing for KVPY (Kishore Vaigyanik Protsahan Yojana), he should have a good understanding of Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics as well as Biology. The test is structured in such a way that it examines the analytical and reasoning capacities through questions that call for the application of scientific concepts. Mathematics involves algebra, calculus and geometry while Physics includes mechanics, thermodynamics and electromagnetism. Organic chemistry principles are emphasised in Chemistry while Genetics and ecology are major topics in Biology. Furthermore, the multiple choice questions used to gauge scientific aptitude including problem-solving skills along with an interview process for select candidates make up part of the exam. In order to excel at KVPY exams and earn grants for a career in basic sciences, one has to prepare using NCERT textbooks thoroughly, solve past year papers as well as regular practice tests.
