सवाल

Which syllabus is followed?

The NEP 2020 common minimum syllabus of UP state universities. Where your university's list of exercises differs, the centre follows your own university syllabus.

Is a computer used?

Exercises are first solved by hand as required in the exam; students may check answers with a spreadsheet.

I am weak in maths. Can I manage?

Yes, only basic arithmetic is needed and every formula is practised with small geographical data sets.
