Note for the paper setter:
1. Numbers of questions to be set are nine (9) as per the above format.
2. Section A, B, C and D contain two questions of Ten (10) marks each.
However, ten marks question may be splitted into subparts.
3. Section E is compulsory and contains ten sub-parts of one mark each.
The answers for each question should preferably be of 2 to 3 lines.
4. The maximum limit on numerical questions to be set in the paper is 35%
while minimum limit is 20% except theoretical papers.
5. The paper setter shall provide detailed marking instructions and
solution to numerical problems for evaluation purpose in the separate
white envelopes provided for solutions.
6. The paper setters should seal the internal & external envelope
properly with signatures & cello tape at proper place.
7. Log tables, charts, graphs, Design data tables etc. should be
specified, whenever needed.
8. Use of Scientific calculator should be clearly specified.
9. There are some MBA subjects (like BAS 202 Operations Research, MBA
5011 Foundation of Financial Accounting, MBA 5012 Foundation of
Managerial Accounting, MBA 5022 Foundations of Marketing, MBA 5023
Foundations of Law, MBA 5031 Foundations of Macroeconomics, MBA 5032
Foundations of Microeconomics, MBA-5033 Foundations of International
Business, MBA 5013 Foundations of Finance) where syllabus is not
divided among four sections namely A, B,C,D then Question paper must
be set by without specifying section in it and giving proper weightage
to the respective portions.
