Read the followin!: instructions carefully.
I Thi, que,[ioll paper contains 24 pages mcluding blank pages for rough work. Please check "II pages and repon discrepancy. If any.
2. Wnte your registration number, your name and name of the examination centre at the specified location' on the right half of the Optical Re,ponse Sheet (ORS).
3. Using HB pencil. darken the appropriate bubble under each digit of your registration numher and the letters corresponding to your paper code.
4. All questions in this paper are of objeclive type.
5. Questions must be answered on the ORS by darkening the appropriate bubble (marked A. B. C. Dj using HB pencil against the question number on the left hand side of the ORS. For each 'Iuestion darkcn the bubble of the correct anSwcr. In case you wish to change an answer. erase the old answer completely. More than one anSWer bubbled against a q...estion will be treated as an incorrect response.
6. There arc a tOlal of65 questions carrying 100 marks.
7. Queslions Q.I - Q.25 will carT)' I-mark each, arid queslions Q.26 - Q_55 will carry 2-rnark. each.
8. Questions QA8 - Q.51 (2 pairs) are common data questions and question pairs (0.52. 0.53) and (Q.54, Q.55) are linked answer quesuom. The answer to the second question of the linked answer questions depends on the anSwer to the first question of the pair. If the first question in the linked pair is wrongly answered or is un-attempled, lhcn the anSwer to the second question in t1K: pair will not be evaluuted.
9. Questions Q.56 _ Q.65 belong to General Aptitude (GA). Questions Q.56 - 0.60 will carry I-mark ea,h, and questions Q.61 - Q.65 will ,arry 2·marks each. The GA ql.>estions will hegin on a fresh page ,taning from page 15.
10. IJn-a!t~mpted que.lions will carry zero mark..<.
II. Wrong answer, will carry NEGATIVE marks. For 0.1 - Q.25 and Q.56 -Q.60. % mark WIll be deducted for ea,h wrong anSwer. For 0.26 - Q.51 and Q.61 - Q.65. ¥. mark will be deducted for each wrong answer. The question pair' (Q.52. Q.53). and (Q.54, Q.55) are questions ... ith linked answers. There will be negative marks only for wrong anSWer to the first queSlion of the linked answer question pair i.c. for Q.52 and Q.54. +.I mark will he deducted for each wrong answer. There is no negative marking for 0.53 and Q.55.
12. CalculutOl (wjthout data connectivity) is allowed in Ihe examinalion hall.
13. Chan" graph ,heelS or tables are NOT allowed in the exammal10n hall.
14. Rough work can be done on lhe question paper itself. Additionally, blank pages are provided at the end of Ihe question paper for rough work.
