Hello Friends,
I just want to share this information with you, I am a Cs professional student. I have group 2 and group 3 pending. I have failed in same paper few times. So to analyze the mistakes we got certified copies of our paper. We observed the following things where we went wrong.(applicable for theory subjects)
1. The Valuvers are expecting a narrative answers rather than short answers. Its observed that a brief up to the point answers are awarded less compared to long narrative answers. for a 3 mark write answers upto 3/4 th of a page. For 5 marks 2 sides and for 10 marks 3 sides. ( yes Its a bit lengthy but examiners are expecting it)
2. While writing distinguish between answers, NEVER TAKE A RULER, DRAW A STRAIGHT LINE IN MIDDLE AND WRITE ANSWERS SIDE BY SIDE.A point wise comparision is awarded more marks rather than "left right distuinguish answers" (i got striked out even though the points are similar to scanner material)
3. No marks are awarded if the point is irrelevent to the question. The whole answer is striked out. So i suggest students to concentrate and spend time on the answers they know rather than writing stories for unknown questions.
4.Answers with relevent sections and Case laws are awarded more.
For Practical Subjects
1. After calculating answers for the sum, A brief statement should be written showing the out come of the conclusion and the result of the problem.
2. For FM and Tax paper even though some problems can be solved through basic logic, Use of the formula is a must and it should be done through the formula steps.
3. Not mentioning units (like answers in percentage/units/ rs) willl be awarded less marks.
4. Step wise marks are awarded.So attend problems even though you can not complete it fully.
These suggestions are given purely on my personal observation and suggestion given by teachers/evaluvators in CS institute during classes. As the evaluvation may vary from person to person these suggestion applicablity is limited.
