MARKING SCHEME
SECTION-1 | Type A
 This section contains SIX (06) questions. Each question has FOUR options (A), (B), (C) and (D).
ONLY ONE of these four options is the answer. For each question, choose the option corresponding
to the correct answer.
 Answer to each question will be evaluated according to the following marking scheme:
Full Marks : +3 If ONLY the correct option is chosen;
Zero Marks : 0 If none of the options is chosen (i.e. the question is unanswered);
Negative Marks : –1 In all other cases.

SECTION-1 | Type B
 This section contains SIX (06) questions. Each question has FOUR options (A), (B), (C) and (D). ONE
OR MORE THAN ONE of these four option(s) is (are) correct answer(s).
 For each question, choose the option(s) corresponding to (all) the correct answer(s).
 Answer to each question will be evaluated according to the following marking scheme:
Full Marks : +4 If only (all) the correct option(s) is(are) chosen;
Partial Marks : +3 If all the four options are correct but ONLY three options are chosen;
Partial Marks : +2 If three or more options are correct but ONLY two options are chosen, both of
which are correct;
Partial Marks : +1 If two or more options are correct but ONLY one option is chosen and it is a
correct option;
Zero Marks : 0 If unanswered;
Negative Marks : –2 In all other cases.
 For example, in a question, if (A), (B) and (D) are the ONLY three options corresponding to correct
answers, then
choosing ONLY (A), (B) and (D) will get +4 marks; choosing ONLY (A) and (D) will get +2 marks;
choosing ONLY (A) will get +1 mark;
choosing no option(s) (i.e. the question is unanswered) will get 0 marks and
choosing any other option(s) will get –2 marks.

SECTION-2
 This section contains THREE (03) Paragraphs. There are TWO (02) questions corresponding to each
Paragraph. The answer to each question is a NUMERICAL VALUE. For each question, enter the correct
numerical value of the answer. If the answer is a decimal numerical value, then round-off the value to
TWO decimal places. If the answer is an Integer value, then do not add zero in the decimal places. In the
OMR, do not bubble the  sign for positive values. However, for negative values, Θ sign should be
bubbled. (Example: 6, 81, 1.50, 3.25, 0.08)
 Answer to each question will be evaluated according to the following marking scheme:
