Exam pattern

Total 100 marks. Theory paper: 70 marks (a compulsory short-answer section plus sections A, B and C with internal choice). Practical paper: 30 marks (planning session to hand-write a Java program, followed by an examination session to key-in and execute it on the computer).

Practical / project

30-mark practical exam based on Java programming. Students complete a minimum of about 20 lab assignments across the year plus ONE project based on the syllabus. In the exam, candidates plan and hand-write a Java program, then key-in and execute it on seen and unseen inputs, attaching the program listing and output to the answer script.

Who it's for

ISC (CISCE) Class 11 students taking Computer Science who want clear, syllabus-aligned coverage of computing fundamentals and Java programming, including those new to coding and those aiming for strong practical-exam scores.

  • Chapter-wise structured notes mapped to the CISCE syllabus for revision before exams
  • Solved questions and worked examples for every unit, including boolean algebra, OOP and Java programming constructs
  • Regular Java programming assignments with code reviewed and corrected line by line
  • Dedicated doubt-solving sessions where students can ask questions live and get instant clarification
  • Practical (Paper-2) lab guidance, including writing, compiling, debugging and documenting Java programs
  • Board-style paper practice with marking-scheme-based feedback to improve answer presentation
  • Viva and practical-file preparation support for the internal/practical assessment

Why study Computer Science (with Java)?

ISC Class 11 Computer Science is the foundation year of the two-year CISCE programme, and the OOP and Java fundamentals built here directly carry into Class 12 and the final ISC board examination. The subject carries 100 marks (70 for the theory paper and 30 for the practical), so a strong, conceptual start in Class 11 makes Class 12 far easier to score in. Topics such as object-oriented programming, data types, control structures, arrays and recursion are highly logical and scoring when understood properly rather than memorised. A solid grasp of Java here also builds genuine programming ability that helps in college entrance preparation and beyond.

Java and object-oriented programming taught in ISC Class 11 are the same core skills expected at the start of most computer science and software engineering degrees, where algorithm design is commonly introduced through Java. The logical foundation built here supports paths into software development, data and AI roles, cybersecurity and IT, all of which are projected to grow faster than average. Even students who later choose other fields gain durable problem-solving and coding literacy.

Course FAQs

Is this ISC Class 11 Computer Science course fully online and live?+
Yes. All classes are conducted live online by Kajal Ma'am, who has been teaching since 2006. Students join interactive sessions with shared-screen Java coding, can ask doubts in real time, and learn from anywhere in India or abroad. Kwickprep does not rely on recorded lectures; the focus is on live teaching, notes, solutions, assignments and exam practice.
Who can join this ISC Class 11 CS with Java course?+
It is designed for students of the CISCE (ISC) board taking Computer Science in Class 11, including those who are new to Java or programming. Students from across India and Indian students studying abroad who follow the ISC curriculum can enrol.
Do you offer one-to-one classes as well as group batches?+
Yes. The course is available in both small-group batch mode and personalised one-to-one mode. Fees differ between the two: group batches are more economical, while one-to-one offers fully individual attention and a flexible pace. Contact Kwickprep for the current fee for each mode.
Is the course aligned with the latest CISCE / ISC syllabus?+
Yes. The content follows the current ISC Class 11 Computer Science syllabus prescribed by CISCE, covering the Paper-1 theory units and the Paper-2 practical work, including object-oriented programming using Java, so classroom learning maps directly to the board exam.
Will you help with the practical (Paper-2) and viva?+
Yes. The practical paper carries 30 marks, and the course includes hands-on guidance for writing, compiling and debugging Java programs, building the practical file, and preparing for the viva so students are confident in the lab assessment.
Can I get a demo or trial before enrolling?+
Yes, you can request a demo session before joining. This lets you and your child experience the live teaching style and ask about batch timings, one-to-one options and fees before deciding.
