QUESTION PAPER PATTERN:
Maximum Marks: 100 Exam Duration: 3 Hours
There shall be three parts for the question paper.
Part A includes Modules 1 & 2 and shall have three questions of fifteen marks out of which
two are to be answered. There can be subdivisions, limited to a maximum of 4, in each
question.
Part B includes Modules 3 & 4 and shall have three questions of fifteen marks out of which
two are to be answered. There can be subdivisions, limited to a maximum of 4, in each
question.
Part C includes Modules 5 & 6 and shall have three questions of twenty marks out of which
two are to be answered. There can be subdivisions, limited to a maximum of 4, in each
question.
Note: Each part shall have questions uniformly covering both the modules in it.
