INSTRUCTIONS
2.

No additional sheets will be provided for rough work.

3.

Blank paper, clipboard, log tables, slide rules, calculators, cellular phones, pagers and electronic gadgets
in any form are not allowed.

4.

The answer sheet, a machine-gradable Objective Response Sheet (ORS), is provided separately.

5.

Do not Tamper / mutilate the ORS or this booklet.

6.

Do not break the seals of the question-paper booklet before instructed to do so by the invigilators.

7.

Write your Name, Roll No. and Sign in the space provide on the back page of this booklet.

B. Filling the bottom-half of the ORS :

Use only Black ball point pen only for filling the ORS. Do not use Gel / Ink / Felt pen as it might smudge the ORS.
8.

Write your Roll no. in the boxes given at the top left corner of your ORS with black ball point pen. Also, darken
the corresponding bubbles with Black ball point pen only. Also fill your roll no on the back side of your ORS
in the space provided (if the ORS is both side printed).

9.

Fill your Paper Code as mentioned on the Test Paper and darken the corresponding bubble with Black ball
point pen.

10. If student does not fill his/her roll no. and paper code correctly and properly, then his/her marks will not be
displayed and 5 marks will be deducted (paper wise) from the total.
11. Since it is not possible to erase and correct pen filled bubble, you are advised to be extremely careful while
darken the bubble corresponding to your answer.
12. Neither try to erase / rub / scratch the option nor make the Cross (X) mark on the option once filled. Do not
scribble, smudge, cut, tear, or wrinkle the ORS. Do not put any stray marks or whitener anywhere on the
ORS.
13. If there is any discrepancy between the written data and the bubbled data in your ORS, the bubbled data will
be taken as final.
C. Question paper format and Marking scheme :
14. The question paper consists of 1 parts. The part consists of Two Sections.
15. For each question in SectionI, you will be awarded 3 marks if you darken the bubble(s) corresponding to
the correct choice for the answer and zero mark if no bubbled is darkened. In case of bubbling of incorrect
answer, minus one (1) mark will be awarded.
16. For each question in SectionII, you will be awarded 5 marks if you darken the bubble corresponding to the
correct answer and zero marks if no bubble is darkened. In case of bubbling of incorrect answer, minus
one (1) mark will be awarded.

DO NOT BREAK THE SEALS WITHOUT BEING
