AP EAPCET 2026 papers analysed: which topics carried the most questions
By the Vonedu team · 14 October 2026 · 6 min read
The 2026 AP EAPCET (Engineering) exam was held from 12 to 15 May 2026. We went through all five question papers: 12 May (two shifts), 13 May, 14 May and 15 May. With 160 questions each, that is 800 questions.
We sorted each question into the syllabus topic it tests. 61 of the 800 need a diagram and could not be read as text, so the counts below use the other 739. Treat the shares as a guide to where marks are, not as a promise of next year's paper.
Mathematics (half of the paper)
| Group | Share of Mathematics questions |
|---|---|
| Algebra | 24% |
| Trigonometry | 11% |
| Vector Algebra | 6% |
| Measures of Dispersion and Probability | 9% |
| Coordinate Geometry | 23% |
| Calculus | 27% |
Calculus, Algebra and Coordinate Geometry together carried about three quarters of the Mathematics questions. Vector Algebra was the smallest group.
Physics
| Group | Share of Physics questions |
|---|---|
| Mechanics | 35% |
| Properties of Matter and Thermal Physics | 19% |
| Waves and Optics | 11% |
| Electricity and Magnetism | 22% |
| Modern Physics and Electronics | 13% |
Mechanics alone was about a third of Physics. Properties of Matter and Thermal Physics and Electricity and Magnetism came next.
Chemistry
| Group | Share of Chemistry questions |
|---|---|
| Physical Chemistry | 44% |
| Inorganic Chemistry | 35% |
| Organic Chemistry | 21% |
Physical Chemistry was the largest group, followed by Inorganic and Organic Chemistry.
How to use this
- Make sure the big groups are strong first. A weak Calculus or Mechanics costs far more marks than a weak small group.
- Do not skip the small groups. Every topic in the syllabus can appear.
- Practise on real questions. Vonedu's mock tests are built from the questions in these 2026 papers, with the diagram questions left out.
