Instructionsforcandidates1. This Booklet contains 200 questions in all comprising following 4 tests (1) GeneralAwareness 40 questions (2) General English 40 questions (4) Reasoning 40 questions =40 marks =40 marks =40 marks quality eraser and then blacken the new oval bearing your revised answer number. While changing the answer, erasing the earlier answer completely is extremely essential, if it is not erased completely, smudges will be left on the erased oval and hence no marks will be given. VERY IMPORTANT : Please note that you should not use an H, 2H/HH, 3H type of Pencil. The marks made by such hard pencil will be too light and will not be read by the computer machine. If you use too soft pencils (drawing pencils) like B/BB, 3B, etc. your marks will be dark. So when you want to change your answer by erasing the first one, there may be smudge or dark mark in place of the erased answer and around it. So these too soft pencils are not to be used. Therefore, use only HB Pencils. Please Do Not mark your answers or fill up information by using different methods of marking. IMPORTANT POINT TO REMEMBER 1. You are advised to bring with you the following things: (i) Two HB Pencils, a pencil sharpener and a good quality eraser (ii) One ball point pen 2. Your answersheet may not be assessed (a) if you do the rough work on the answersheet. (b) if you do not write your Roll No. on the Test Booklet. (c ) i f you do not wri te all th e inform ati on requi red on the answersheet. (d) If you do not handle your answersheet carefully. 3. For all objective tests there will be one single answersheet. 4. All you answers must be marked on the answersheet. The method of indicating answers as described and illustrated before must be followed. Please note that the oval should be dark enough and should be filled in completely. 5. W hen you receive the test booklet do not waste your time in fi rst r ead ing al l the qu es tions as is done in sc hool/c ol leg e/ univers ity examinations. Since these questions are of ob jective type, read particular question and immediately mark your answer on the answersheet. In case you find a particular question difficult, skip the question and go on to the next question. The question so skipped may be solved at the end if time is available. 6. If the question is skipped care should be taken while marking the answer of the next question. It should be marked against the appropriate question serial number leaving blank the answerspace for the skipped question. 7. Composite time of 1 hour 35 minutes is given to solve the four objective type tests. Therefore, in your interest you are advised to apportion the time judiciously and not to utilise too much time on a particular test (s) at the cost of some other tests. 8.

2. DEDUCTION IN MARKS : THERE WILL BE PENALTY FOR WRONG ANSWERS MARKED BY YOU IN THE OBJECTIVE TESTS. There are five alternatives in every question of a test. For each question for which a wrong answer has been given by you, one fourth of the marks assigned to that question will be deducted as penalty. If for any question you give more than one answer, it will be treated as wrong even if one of the given answers happens to be right and there will be the same penalty as above for that question. If a question is left blank, i.e., no answer is given by you, there will be no penalty for that question. If the total of the penalty for a test is in fraction, it will be rounded off to the nearest integer. YOU SHOULD THEREFORE BE CAREFUL IN MARKING YOUR ANSWERS. 3. Compliance with instructions : You should scrupulously follow the instructions given at all stages of the examination. If you violate the instructions you will be disqualified. 4. Use of Books, Notes & Calculators : No Calculator (separate or with watch), slide rulers, notebooks or written notes will be allowed. 5. Copying or receiving/giving assistance not allowed : Any candidate who is found either copying or receiving or giving assistance during the examination will be disqualified. 6. Use of HB Pencil and Ball Pen : You should bring with you two commonly available HB Pencils, a Pencil Sharpener, an Eraser and a Ball Point Pen. Two pencils are advised to avoid mending a pencil during the examination as you may lose time. Use ball point pen for filling up the information in boxes 111 on the first side of the answersheet. Use HB Pencil only for filling up information in boxes 1328 on first side of the answersheet and box 29 on side 2 of the answersheet. All the answers on side 2 also should be marked by using HB Pencils only. 7. Handling answersheet : Please handle your answersheet carefully. Keep it dustfree.
