Continuous Assessment Test 1 for the Academic Year 2020/21
You have already known that the above examination will be conducted as an
online examination.
The paper of the course MHZ3551 consists of only MCQs that cover the
UNIT1, UNIT 2 and UNIT 3.
At this examination most probably you may get at least 15 randomized
questions that have the same weightage.
Some model Questions are given below.
