About Open Book Examination:

An Open Book Examination is a test that allows you to take the help of text book or
study material you have been studying.

Students assume that this type of test is very easy as they can look up the answers
from their study materials but that is not the case in these tests.

As an open book exam requires a genuine understanding of the materials the ability
to interpret, think critically and attempt questions strategically.

What are the study material/ books that are allowed in AISEE open book examinations?

Candidates are allowed to carry their subject matter text book to the examination
center. But the only condition is that only one book per subject is allowed at once. For
example: If the candidate belongs to the engineering stream then he/she can carry
a total of 3 textbooks, i.e. one text book each per subject: physics, chemistry &
mathematics.
Note: Any Customize Note Book, Laptop, Tab, Mobile or any other education material except
Text Book Not Allowed in Examination Center
