Bio was damn difficult .... · 3 weeks ago

Yeah! You are right. Biology troubled me a lot too, I wonder how much I will lose due to it. · 2 weeks, 2 days ago

How much are you getting? · 3 weeks ago

@A E I did not check the answer key , how much are you getting ? which problem in mathematics did you like most ? · 3 weeks ago

All questions were of good level and interesting.I am expecting about 47-50. · 3 weeks ago

OK so I found q 17,22,27,67,70 ans incorrect · 3 weeks, 2 days ago

Yes 17,22, 67 and 70 are incorrect but 27 is correct · 3 weeks, 2 days ago

@A E @Spandan Senapati ,Shouldn't the answer of q-27 be option B? · 3 weeks, 2 days ago

Ya option B is correct for q 27.... · 3 weeks, 1 day ago

@A E What's your score.....I am getting 65 as per the incorrect key...expect some more 7-8 marks after correction...anyway what's your score????@A.E · 3 weeks, 2 days ago

My score is horrible 45-50 :( · 3 weeks, 1 day ago

@A E 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..... · 3 weeks, 2 days ago

What is getting for Q67 and Q70? · 3 weeks, 2 days ago

Can anyone tell the solution of Q4. KVPY SA? · 2 weeks, 1 day 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. · 2 weeks, 1 day ago

@A E Thanks a lot! · 2 weeks, 1 day 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. · 2 weeks, 1 day ago

great solution!!! · 2 weeks, 1 day ago

@A E Thanks! · 2 weeks, 1 day ago

Thanks!!! · 2 weeks, 1 day ago

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. · 3 weeks, 1 day ago

Even I marked the same option :( · 3 weeks, 1 day ago

I barely completed the paper.. I don't remember exactly what I marked, what questions I marked.. So I didn't count.. · 3 weeks ago

No problem....All the best !!! · 3 weeks ago

Oh. Thanks. · 3 weeks, 1 day ago

How much are you scoring? · 3 weeks, 1 day 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..... · 3 weeks, 1 day ago

@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 · 3 weeks, 1 day ago

Do add ,5 more marks...friend the key is a bit incorrect.... · 3 weeks, 2 days ago

Like which questions? I may not have attempted the ones you are saying. · 3 weeks, 2 days ago

My marks: 40-45. :( · 3 weeks, 2 days ago

Same here. :( · 3 weeks, 2 days ago

The key is incorrect....physics especially.... · 3 weeks, 2 days ago

Please tell me question numbers you are finding wrong.As of now, i am scoring too low. · 3 weeks, 2 days ago

Question paper with answer keys have been uploaded at KVPY Official site !!!!! Please post your marks!!! · 3 weeks, 2 days ago

Think my score is gonna be in 71-75....let's see..... · 3 weeks, 3 days 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! · 3 weeks, 1 day 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!!!!. · 3 weeks, 1 day 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 · 3 weeks, 1 day ago

How do you rate this years q paper......??? · 3 weeks, 1 day ago

I Think its more or less of same level as last year (atleast for PCM) . Biology its none of my buisness · 3 weeks, 1 day 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... · 3 weeks, 1 day ago

Actually bio is the one making difference this year. · 3 weeks, 1 day ago

@A E i scored 6 last year out of 25. · 3 weeks, 1 day ago

@prakhar bindal...Can you tell if q. 17 and is correct.... · 3 weeks, 1 day ago

Great!!! · 3 weeks, 1 day ago

@A E :P. What do you mean? :P · 3 weeks, 1 day ago

That is more that my score in bio. · 3 weeks, 1 day ago

Wow.....then congratulations!!!!! I don't even think of crossing 50. · 3 weeks, 2 days 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...... · 3 weeks, 3 days ago

Scoring above 50 was a herculean task!!! · 3 weeks, 4 days ago

Probably cutoff will fall drastically this year. · 3 weeks, 5 days ago

Wasn't biology too tough in SA Stream? · 3 weeks, 5 days ago

@A E I think I was giving AIPMT 😨 · 3 weeks, 5 days ago

AIPMT(actually NEET) asks most of the questions from NCERT. but here good amount of concepts were required · 3 weeks, 4 days ago

@A E yes it was a bit tough. · 3 weeks, 4 days ago

@A E Yeah it was horrible. I will get between 40 and 50. · 3 weeks, 4 days ago

Let the answer key come, till then I have no estimation. Overall, my exam was bad 😥😥 · 3 weeks, 5 days ago

How much are you scoring? · 3 weeks, 5 days ago
