AIEEE ANALYSIS

AIEEE 2007 Analysis
This year students had it relatively easy in the AIEEE. While the basic format of a single paper test was retained, there were significant departures in the pattern as compared to the 2006 paper. There were 40 questions in each of the three subjects of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry as compared to the last year’s distribution of 40 questions in Mathematics and 55 questions each in Physics and Chemistry. Thus, making it a total of 120 questions this year instead of the 150 questions in the last year. The second departure this year was the uniform marking scheme as compared to the differential scheme last year. Each question, irrespective of the subject, carried 3rd marks. The negative marking was 1/3 . Total marks were 360. Coming to the level of difficulty, about 50% questions in Mathematics and Physics were fairly simple or straightforward requiring direct use of formula/result or law. For Chemistry this number was about 30%. About 60% of the Chemistry part comprised of questions that either were not direct or required a little time to arrive at the answer. 


The surprising thing was that there were some errors in the question paper. A question in Physics α which should have been α R . Similarly, in Mathematics there are talks of a certain distance as R three questions with errors. Two of these have wrong or ambiguous options, while one question is incorrect. This is surprising because such errors have hardly happened in past question papers. The strategy lied in keeping cool and identifying the simpler questions to attempt first before moving to the more difficult questions, which weren’t many. As usual, better utilization of time would result in better marks. So, the constraining factor was once again time, and not level of difficulty. The topic-wise breakup for each subject is given below.
