(i) Comprehension of given passage
(ii) Precis writing
(iii) Usage and vocabulary
(iv) Short Essay.
General Studies : 100 Marks (MCQ/Objective Type)
The nature and standard of questions in the General Studies will be such that a welleducated person will be able to answer them without any specialized study.
The questions will be such as to test a candidate’s general awareness of a variety of subjects, which will have relevance for a career in Engineering Services.
The questions are likely to test the candidate’s basic understanding of all relevant issues, and ability to analyze, and take a view on conflicting socio-economic goals, objectives and demands.
