3. Questions must be answered on Objective Response Sheet (O RS ) by darkening the

appropriate bubble (marked A, B, C, D) using HB pencil against the question number on
the left hand side of the ORS. Each question has only one correct answer. In case you
wish to change an answer, erase the old answer completely.

4. Wrong answers will carry NEGATIVE marks. In Q.I to Q.20, 0.25 mark will be
deducted for each wrong answer. In Q.21 to Q.76, Q.78. Q.80. Q.82 and in Q.84, 0.5
mark will be deducted for each wrong answer. However, there is no negative marking in
Q.77, Q.79. Q.81. Q.83 and in Q.85. More than one answer bubbled against a question
will be taken as an incorrect response. Unattempted questions will not carry any marks.

specified locations on the right halfofthe ORS .

6. Using HB pencil, darken the app ropriate bubble under each digit of your registration
number and the letters corresponding to your paper code.

7. Calculator is allowed in the examination hall.

8. Charts, graph sheets or tables are NOT allowed in the examination hall.

9. Rough work can be done on the question paper itself. Additionally blank pages are given
althe end of the question paper for rough work.

10. This question paper contains 20 printed pages including pages for rough work. Please
check all pages and report, if there is any discrepancy.
