2. The first question will be compulsory and will have short questions having weightage of 4-5marks covering the entire syllabus.
3. The remaining five questions will be based on all the modules of the entire syllabus and may be. For this, the modules shall be divided proportionately and further, the weightage of the marks shall be judiciously awarded in proportion to the importance of the sub-module and contents thereof.
4. Remaining questions will be mixed in nature (e.g. Suppose Q.2 has part
   1. from module II then part
   2. will be from any module other than module II).
5. The students will have to attempt any three questions out of remaining five questions.
6. Total four questions need to be attempted.

Oral Examination:

The oral examination will be conducted in conjunction with the practical/s and will be based on the entire syllabus and the term work. The weightage of the practical examination will be of 10 marks and that of oral, 15 marks.
