• From Physics, there were also questions on Stress and strain, Hooke’s law, Young’s modulus, Energy stored in stretched wire and Elastic vs plastic deformation
• From Chemistry, there were also questions on the limiting reagent, Mole concept, Percentage yield, Empirical formula and Gas stoichiometry

Students with a combined score of 60 marks or above have chances of scoring a rank below 5000 as per previous years' trends. In 2025, a combined score of 60 resulted in a 4,900 rank. There is 25% weightage for IPE marks in determining the EAMCET ranks. Therefore, the results are declared in the form of combined score (75% weightage to AP EAMCET marks and 25% weightage to IPE marks).
