Preface
Whenever a student decides to prepare for any examination, her/his

first and foremost curiosity is about the type of questions that he/she
has to face.
We feel great pleasure to present before you this book. We have

made an attempt to provide unit wise collection of questions asked in
KVPY with answer and solutions to majority of questions. Solutions to
the questions are not just sketch rather have been written in such a
manner that the students wil! be able to understand the application of
concept and can answer some other related questions too.
We firmly believe that the book in this form will definitely help a
genuine, hardworking student.
We have tried our best to keep errors out of this book. Comment and
criticism from readers will be highly appreciated and incorporated in
the subsequent edition.
We wish to utilize the opportunity to place on record our special

thanks to all team members of Content Development for their efforts
to make this wonderful book.
