Students found the overall level of paper Moderate. Students felt Paper-2 was easier compared to Paper-1. Paper - 2 pattern was as expected so it was encouraging for our students.
Some students have reported chemistry as easiest, mathematics was moderate but physics relatively difficult.
As per students, in physics questions were more concept based and covered all chapters. In Mathematics, there were more questions from Calculus & Algebra . In Chemistry, questions from all chapters were covered and were easy.
No mistakes reported till now as complete paper is yet to be analysed.
Total no. of questions (54 questions) remains same as last year however total marks of Paper-2 has changed from 180 to 186 marks this year.
