It always contains surprises, so it’s difficult to predict what will be the pattern. However, there are two papers each of 3 hour duration in a single day, namely Paper 1 and Paper 2.

Both papers contains questions from all three subjects, Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. Usually there are two types of questions, one “Only one correct answer” type in which marking scheme is +4 for correct and -1 for incorrect, and other is “One or more than one correct response” type in which you’ll only be rewarded +6 marks if you’ve marked all correct responses for a question, if not then you’ll be awarded -2 for it.
