GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS IN EXAMINATION HALL A. General : 1. This Question Paper contains 75 questions. Please check before starting to attempt. The question paper consists of 6 parts Physics (1 to 10), Chemistry(11 to 18), Mathematics(19 to 43), Biology (44 to 50), General Awareness (51 to 65) & Mental Ability (66 to 75) 2. Space is provided within question paper for rough work hence no additional sheets will be provided. 3. Blank paper, clipboard, log tables, slide rules, calculators, cellular phones, pagers and electronic gadgets in any form are not allowed inside the examinaiton hall. 4.

Do not break the seals of the question-paper booklet before instructed to do so by the invigilators. 7. SUBMIT the ORS to the invigilator after completing the test & take away the test paper with you. 8. Any student found/reported using unfair means to improve his/her performance in the test, shall be disqualified from STaRT2013. B. How to fill Objective Response Sheet (ORS) for filling details marking answers: 9. Use only HB Pencil/Blue or Black ball point pen for filling the ORS. Do not use Gel/Ink/Felt pen as it might smudge the ORS. 10. Write your STaRT-2013 Student Registration No. in the boxes given at the top left corner of your ORS with blue/black ball point pen. Also, darken the corresponding bubbles with HB Pencil/Blue or Black ball point pen only. 11. If any student does not fill his/her STaRT-2013 Student Registration No. correctly and properly, then his/her ORS will not be checked/ evaluated. 12. Since it is not possible to erase and correct pen filled bubble, you are advised to be extremely careful while darken the bubble corresponding to your answer. 13. Neither try to erase / rub / scratch the option nor make the Cross (X) mark on the option once filled. Do not scribble, smudge, cut, tear, or wrinkle the ORS. Do not put any stray marks or whitener anywhere on the ORS. 14. If there is any discrepancy between the written data and the bubbled data in your ORS, the bubbled data will be taken as final. C. Question paper format and Marking scheme : 15. For each right answer you will be awarded 4 marks if you darken the bubble corresponding to the correct answer and zero marks if no bubble is darkened. In case of bubbling of incorrect answer, minus one (–1) mark will be awarded.
