However, it was observed that the questions were largely reminiscent of previous years' papers, which may lead students to anticipate scoring well. The paper was balanced, all questions were from the syllabus and prescribed books. Overall, it was an easy paper. Yet, some multiple-choice questions were a bit tricky.
