Candidates will be required to answer 5 in part A, in Part B and questions in Part C respectively(no. of question to attempt may vary from exam to exam). In case any candidate answers more than 5, and questions in Part A, B and C respectively only first 5, and questions in Parts A, B and C respectively will be evaluated.
