Instructions:
i. Only 10 questions are to be asked in CAT.
ii. 9/10 marks question in CAT will have alternative options in group C. An alternative
question will be asked with OR option with the same serial number and alternative
question must map with same CO(s).
iii. The two tables (given below) must be filled by the paper setter.
iv. Paper setter must see the COs of the courses described in syllabus to frame the questions
in alignment with expected COs and Blooms taxonomy
