“In the second section featuring domain subjects, considering the common pool of candidates in JEE and NEET, the sciences-based papers are scheduled in phase 2 which starts in August. In the first phase, NTA is covering only the commerce and humanities based subjects,” he added. Hence, there were no science papers today.
The first section which comprises of language had put focus on vocabulary and grammar in the English paper. Nearly 70 per cent of the questions were from these two areas. “Questions based on synonyms, antonyms, spelling error, fill in the blanks, para-jumbles were designed to evaluate one’s acumen in vocabulary and grammar. The questions based on passages were direct and factual,” Kumar added.
