with different uses of the language.
[N.B. : 5 Questions are to be answered. Each question will carry 4 marks. There may be division in each
question]
a) Understanding different purposes and types of readings
b) Guessing word-meaning in context.
c) Understanding long sentences
d) Recognizing main ideas and supporting ideas.
e) Answering comprehension questions.
f) Writing summaries.
2. Writing

Intermediate Microeconomics
Paper Objective
Upon completion of this Paper, students will know the structure and d underlying assumptions of
the standard models used in microeconomic analysis and how the models' predictions change
when the standard assumptions are relaxed. They will be able to identify and solve constrained
optimization problems, to demonstrate facility with the calculus-based methods used to analyze
microeconomic problems, to explain in non-technical terms the fundamental economic intuition
associated with the standard models.
