Test Assessment, Analysis & Solutions

Some students are of the opinion that for AIEEE, practice is everything. At PAGE we recognize that
practice is one of the most important constituents of a good study plan. However, it is not enough to
blindly attempt tests. After every test, one needs to spend time reviewing it. The following charts will
give you a place to start your test review First check the question paper with answer keys to find out
marks scored. Religiously note down the number of questions that you obtained correct, wrong or left
unanswered in various section types. Also make a subjective self-judgment ascertaining the cause of
your performance in the various sections.

Analysis of wrong questions:

Reasons for wrong questions
(To be filled after you have attempted wrong questions on your own after the test) No. Questions
A. Know the solution / answer for the question but failed
to get it right in the exam: Calculation mistake

B. Know the solution / answer for the question but failed

to get it right in the exam: Applied wrong concept

C. Do not know the concept and couldn’t solve even after exam

Total Number of questions attempted wrong

If score of A &B is high then you need more practice and read questions more carefully. If C is very high you need
to revisit the topic in the textbook.
If the number of easy, average question not attempted by you is high then you need to focus on selection of
questions. In AIEEE you should select questions you can solve fast and leave lengthy and difficult questions.

173.b. There cannot be 3 points on the circle with rational
[∵13a = R] coordinates for then the centre of the circle, being the
circumcentre of a triangle whose vertices have rational
coordinates, must have rational coordinates

the point ( 3 , 0) does not have rational coordinates.
