Paper Structure (for CS,EE,ECE, ME)
Questions
Types:
(i)
Multiple choice questions carrying 1 or 2 marks each;
(ii)
Common data questions, where two successive questions use the same set of input
data;
(iii)Linked
answer questions, where the answer to the first question in the pair is
required to answer its successor;
Section
Weightage: Engineering Mathematics will
carry 15 % of the total marks, the General Aptitude section will carry 15 % of
the total marks and the remaining 70 % of the total marks is devoted to the
subject of the paper.
| Weightage | Questions (total 65) | |
| General Aptitude | 15% Marks | Five 1 mark questions Five 2 mark questions |
| Engineering Maths | 15% Marks | 25- 1 mark questions 30 - 2 mark questions |
| Subject of Paper | 70% Marks |
Marking
For
1 mark multiple choice questions, 1/3 mark will be deducted for a wrong answer.
Likewise, for 2 marks multiple choice questions, 2/3 mark will be deducted for
a wrong answer.
However,
for the linked answer question pair, where each question carries 2 marks, 2/3
mark will be deducted for a wrong answer to the first question only. There is
no negative marking for wrong answer to the second question of the linked
answer question pair. If the first question in the linked pair is wrongly
answered or is unattempted, then the answer to the second question in the pair
will not be evaluated. There is no negative marking for numerical answer type
questions.
Types
of Multiple Choice Objective Questions
(i)
Recall:
These are based on facts, principles, formulae
or laws of the discipline of the paper. The candidate is expected to be
able to obtain the answer either from his/her memory of the subject or at
most from a one-line computation.
(ii)
Comprehension: These questions will test
the candidate’s understanding of the basics of his/her field, by requiring
him/her to draw simple conclusions from fundamental ideas.
(iii) Application: In these questions, the
candidate is expected to apply his/her knowledge either through
computation or by logical reasoning.
