The weightage or the distribution of marks over different dimensions of the

question paper shall be as follows.

1 . Weightage to learning outcomes :

The expected time for different type of questions would be as follows

S. No Form of questions Approx. time for each Number of Approx .time for

5. Long answer type (LA1) 7 6 42
6. Long answer type (LA2) 9 2 18
Total 36 140 mins

As the actual time is calculated on the basis of the number of questions required
to be answered and the length of their expected answer it would therefore be advisable
for candidates to budget the time properly by cutting out the superfluous words and be
within the expected time limits.

4. Scheme of options.

There will be no overall choice . However there will be internal choice in 02

questions of 04 marks category and 02 questions of 05 marks category .

S, No Estimated difficult level of Marks Percentage

questions
1. Easy 20 25%
2. Average 44 55%
3. Difficult 16 20%
Total 80 100%
5. Weightage to difficult level of questions.

A question may vary in difficulty level from individual to individual. As such the
assessment in respect of each question will be made by the paper setter on the
basis of general anticipation from the group as a whole taking the examination. This
provision is only to make the paper balanced in its weightage rather than to
determine the pattern of marking at any stage.

6. 10 % theory ( 10 marks) is to be included.
