DO NOT write anything else on the Test Booklet. This Test Booklet contains 80 items (questions). Each item comprises four responses (answers). You will select the response which you want to’ mark on the Answer Sheet. In case you feel that there is, more than one correct response, mark the response which you consider the best. In any case, choose ONLY ONE response for each item. You have to mark all your responses ONLY on the separate Answer Sheet provided. See directions in the Answer Sheet. All items carry equal marks. Before you proceed to mark in the Answer Sheet the response to various items in the Test Booklet, you have to fill in some particulars in the Answer Sheet as per instructions sent to you with your ‘Admission Certificate, After you have completed filling in all your responses on the Answer Sheet and the examination has concluded, you should hand over to the Invigilator only the Answer Sheet. You are permitted to take away with you the Test Booklet. Sheets for rough work are appended in the Test Booklet at the end. Penalty for wrong answers: THERE WILL BE PENALTY FOR WRONG ANSWERS MARKED BY A CANDIDATE IN THE OBJECTIVE TYPE QUESTION PAPERS. (@) There are four alternatives for the answer to every question. For each question for which a wrong answer ‘as heen given by the candidate, onethird ofthe marks assigned to that question will he deducted as Gi) Ifa candidate gives more than one answer, it will be treated as a wrong answer even if one of the given answers happens to be correct and there will be same penalty as above to that question, Gii) If a question is left blank, ic., no answer is given by the candidate, there will be no penalty for that question.
