Kerala +2 Political Science study guide
Kerala +2 Political Science · Work through your exam, one topic at a time.
Kerala's Higher Secondary (+2) Political Science course is a two-year programme taken in Classes XI and XII under the state's Directorate of Higher Secondary Education, and the public examination at the end of Class XII is what most candidates mean when they say "Plus Two Political Science". It suits students who want a humanities or social science stream that leads naturally into degrees in political science, law, public administration, journalism, civil service preparation or international relations, and it also works as a supporting subject for anyone aiming at competitive examinations later.
