KEAM – Engineering 2014 Exam Pattern

December 13, 2013December 12, 2013 by bn Mishra

Each question paper will have 4 versions as detailed below :

Paper I – Physics & Chemistry Versions – A1, A2, A3 & A4.
Paper II – Mathematics Versions – B1, B2, B3 & B4.

Duration	150 Minutes
No of Questions	120
Maximum Marks	480

Scoring, negative marks: For each correct response in the Engineering Entrance Examinations, the candidates will be awarded FOUR marks, and for each incorrect response, ONE mark will be deducted from the total score. For all these papers, in the event of failure to answer a question, (that is, no response is indicated against a question in the answer-sheet) no deduction from the total score will be made. More than one answer indicated against a question will be deemed as incorrect response, and will be awarded negative marks. Therefore the candidates are advised not to attempt an answer, if they are not sure of the response, because mere guessing may lead to choice of wrong answers, with the consequent penalty of negative marks. However, the candidates who fail to answer at least one question will be disqualified.
