• Use black gel pen for signature, mobile number, and answer writing sections; use 2B pencil for all other filling areas.

• Fill in the answer retention page on the last page of the exam.

• Do not write outside the designated areas; extraneous marks may cause the machine to reject the answer sheet.

• Do not use correction fluid, tape, or leave pencil debris after erasing; clean thoroughly to prevent scoring errors.

• If a wrong option is marked, erase it completely to avoid being counted as multiple selections.

• When signing the pledge, use black gel pen in block letters; do not use cursive.

• The student’s registered mobile number serves as the unique identifier. Fill and mark carefully to prevent invalid scores.

Scoring:

• Each correct answer: 1 point

• Incorrect or blank answer: 0 points

• Maximum score: 15 points

• Answers are integers from 0–999; fill leading zeros for numbers under three digits (e.g., 000, 001, 011). The machine reading determines the final score.
