2019 - 2020
 PREFACE
The home assignment , being given to the
students , aims at strengthening the concepts of
each student through reinforcement of topics
covered in class lectures by practicing the
questions given in the assignment.
Some sample papers in each subject have been
given.
The maximum benefit can be gained only if the
student goes through all the topics of fragment 1
thoroughly before attempting the sample paper.
The assignment will not only act as a
reinforcement tool but will also help the students
acquire the tendency of solving the entire paper in
one sitting, just like he/she sits in an examination
for three hours. Hence, improving student’s time
management skill in examination.
This assignment will also fetch the student 5 marks
in practical. The solutions of all the question
papers given in the home assignment have to be
written on separate A-4 sheets.
For all the subjects, the assignments have to be
submitted in different folders respectively.
Last date to submit the assignment for each
subject 5th July ’19.
