Instructions
1. The test is of 3 hours duration.
2. The Test Booklet consists of 90 questions. The maximum marks are 432.
3. There are three parts in the question paper. The distribution of marks subject wise in each part is as
under for each correct response.
Part A - PHYSICS (144 marks) – Questions No. 1 to 2 and 9 to 30 consist FOUR (4) marks each
and Question No. 3 to 8 consist EIGHT(8) marks each for each correct response.
Part B - CHEMISTRY (144 marks) – Questions No. 31 to 39 and 46 to 60 consist FOUR (4) marks
each and Question No. 40 to 45 consist EIGHT (8) marks each for each correct response.
Part C - MATHEMATICS (144 marks) – Questions No. 61 to 82 and 89 to 90 consist EIGHT (8)
marks each and Questions No. 83 to 88 consist EIGHT (8) marks each for each correct
response.
4. Candidates will be awarded marks as stated above in instruction No. 5 for correct response of each
question ¼ (one fourth) marks will be deducted for indicating incorrect response of each question.
No deduction from the total score will be made if no response is indicated for an item in the answer
sheet.
5. Use Blue/Black Ball Point Pen only for writing particulars/marking responses on Side-1 and Side-2
of the Answer Sheet. Use of pencil is strictly prohibited.
6. On completion of the test, the candidate must hand over the Answer Sheet to the Invigilator on duty
in the Room/Hall. However, the candidates are allowed to take away this Test Booklet with them.
