Units and Dimensions
Instructions :
1. Check the test duration and number of questions on the question paper carefully. For each correct response, the candidate
will get 4 marks. For each incorrect response, one mark will be deducted from the total scores.
2. Please ensure you have got all the pages of the paper clearly printed.
3. Use Blue / Black Ball Point Pen only for writing particulars or filling circles in the OMR sheet. Fill the circles fully, without
4
spillover.
4. The candidates should ensure that the Answer Sheet (OMR Sheet) is not folded. Do not make any stray marks on the
2
Answer Sheet.

7. Do not waste unnecessary time if you get stuck up in any question. Leave that question to be visited again later. First
attempt the questions you may do easily. Remember, your goal is to maximize your marks!
