Bio was damn difficult ....

- 11 months, 1 week ago

Yeah! You are right. Biology troubled me a lot too, I wonder how much I will lose due to it.

- 11 months ago

How much are you getting?

- 11 months, 1 week ago

I did not check the answer key , how much are you getting ? which problem in mathematics did you like most ?

- 11 months, 1 week ago

All questions were of good level and interesting.I am expecting about 47-50.

- 11 months, 1 week ago

OK so I found q 17,22,27,67,70 ans incorrect

- 11 months, 1 week ago

Yes 17,22, 67 and 70 are incorrect but 27 is correct

- 11 months, 1 week ago

@Spandan Senapati ,Shouldn't the answer of q-27 be option B?

- 11 months, 1 week ago

Ya option B is correct for q 27....

My score is horrible 45-50 :(

You need to calculate the maxheight attained from ground....you might have calculated it from top of the tower perhaps.....anyway don't worry it happens....exam pressure.....

- 11 months, 1 week ago

What is getting for Q67 and Q70?

- 11 months, 1 week ago

- 10 months ago

Mine is 72.75.

- 10 months ago

Where are the new answer keys?

- 10 months ago

Sorry for late reply.was out for school picnic.in official site you can find the answer keys

- 10 months ago

I Too got this much last year. if you do sufficiently well in interview you will get a decent rank

Can anyone tell the solution of Q4. KVPY SA?

- 11 months ago

Apply Cauchy Schwarz inequality on LHS,you will observe that LHS is greater than equal to the RHS.Then apply the equality condition Cauchy Schwarz inequality( in Cauchy Schwarz inequality,the equality exists when the ratio of terms is constant).You will get that 1=a=b.Therefore (1,1) is the only solution.

Thanks a lot!

- 11 months ago

It can be done without the inequality also-

$$(1+a+b)^2=3(1+a^2+b^2)$$

$$\iff 2a^2+2b^2-2a-2b-2ab+2=0$$

$$\iff (a-1)^2+(b-1)^2+(a-b)^2=0$$

Hence, $$a=b=1$$ only.

great solution!!!

@A E Thanks!

Thanks!!!

Kindly confirm the answer for the conditions for current to flow in the wire connected to circuits.

I marked “current will flow if E1/R1 not equal to E2/R2.”

I know that if the wire connects 2 points, then those 2 points potential is same. But I got confused during exam and trusted "Kirchoff's law" for junctions.

- 11 months, 1 week ago

Even I marked the same option :(

- 11 months, 1 week ago

I barely completed the paper.. I don't remember exactly what I marked, what questions I marked.. So I didn't count..

- 11 months, 1 week ago

No problem....All the best !!!

- 11 months, 1 week ago

Oh. Thanks.

- 11 months, 1 week ago

How much are you scoring?

- 11 months, 1 week ago

To make things simple think this way....the circuits are initially separate..consider any one of the circuit.... current is e/r....now connect them write Kirchoff's voltage law for the same circuit......did you find that the current again remains the same......so what can be concluded is that current did not flow through the wire.....

@Harsh Shrivastava @Kalash Verma @Adarsh Kumar What is your score (including the ones you have done correctly but printed wrong in the keys)? apna apna batao sab

- 11 months, 1 week ago

Do add ,5 more marks...friend the key is a bit incorrect....

- 11 months, 1 week ago

Like which questions? I may not have attempted the ones you are saying.

- 11 months, 1 week ago

My marks: 40-45. :(

- 11 months, 1 week ago

Same here. :(

- 11 months, 1 week ago

The key is incorrect....physics especially....

- 11 months, 1 week ago

Please tell me question numbers you are finding wrong.As of now, i am scoring too low.

- 11 months, 1 week ago

- 11 months, 1 week ago

Think my score is gonna be in 71-75....let's see.....

- 11 months, 1 week ago

Good job!. although i haven't seen the paper i too scoreD about 73 last year.

If you do fair enough in interview you will surely be in top 100!

- 11 months, 1 week ago

I expect 73.25 after the correct ans key...and you know in 2014 someone had scored 78 from our school and got air 8!!!!.

- 11 months, 1 week ago

actually 2014 paper was quite tough (cutoff was only 42). so scoring 78 in that is indeed an achievement

i got rank 59 last year coz the paper was slightly easier last year than 2014 . One of my friend got 82 last year still ended up on rank 14

- 11 months, 1 week ago

How do you rate this years q paper......???

- 11 months, 1 week ago

I Think its more or less of same level as last year (atleast for PCM) . Biology its none of my buisness

- 11 months, 1 week ago

Ya bio was not high scoring.....this year.....and maths was better then previous years..as of P,C they were quite the same...

- 11 months, 1 week ago

Actually bio is the one making difference this year.

- 11 months, 1 week ago

@A E i scored 6 last year out of 25.

- 11 months, 1 week ago

@prakhar bindal...Can you tell if q. 17 and is correct....

- 11 months, 1 week ago

Great!!!

- 11 months, 1 week ago

@A E :P. What do you mean? :P

- 11 months, 1 week ago

That is more that my score in bio.

- 11 months, 1 week ago

Wow.....then congratulations!!!!! I don't even think of crossing 50.

- 11 months, 1 week ago

.let's wait for the key.....and bio was not difficult....the options were not at all confusing...a little thinking and you know what the ans is......there were q where only one option was apparent......

- 11 months, 1 week ago

Scoring above 50 was a herculean task!!!

- 11 months, 2 weeks ago

Probably cutoff will fall drastically this year.

- 11 months, 2 weeks ago

Wasn't biology too tough in SA Stream?

- 11 months, 2 weeks ago

I think I was giving AIPMT 😨

- 11 months, 2 weeks ago

AIPMT(actually NEET) asks most of the questions from NCERT. but here good amount of concepts were required

- 11 months, 2 weeks ago

yes it was a bit tough.

- 11 months, 2 weeks ago

Yeah it was horrible. I will get between 40 and 50.

- 11 months, 2 weeks ago

Let the answer key come, till then I have no estimation. Overall, my exam was bad 😥😥

- 11 months, 2 weeks ago

How much are you scoring?
