With the objective nature ofthese competitive exams and with increasing ‘competition, it becomes necessary for the student to study and practice every topicandalso get acclimatize with the style of questions asked in the exam. Studying engineering in university is one aspect but studying to crack different prestigious competitive exams requires altogether different strategies, crystal clear concepts and rigorous practice of previous years questions. Every student can achieve great results through proper guidance and exam-otiented study material, and hence we have come up with this, book covering al the previous years’ questions. This book will help aspirants to develop an understanding of important and frequently asked areas in the exam and will also help in strengthening concepts. MADE EASY Team has put sincere efforts in framing accurate and detailed explanations fr allthe previous years questions. The explanation provided for each question is not only question specific but it will also give insight on the concept as a whole Which will beneficial for the student from the exam point of view tohandle similar questions. All the previous years’ questions are segregated subject wise and further, they have been ‘categorized topic-wise for easy learning and this certainly assists aspirants to solve all previous years questions ofa particular area in one place. I would like to acknowledge the efforts of the entire MADE EASY team who worked hard to solve previous years’ questions with accuracy. Ihope this book will sand up to the expectations of aspirants and my desire toserve the student community by providing the best study material will get accomplished. gh (Ex.
