My brother appeared in the written test for MSc Cognitive Sciences in February 2020. So, I can give you some insight about the same. 

The written test analyses your comprehensive skills i.e. the ability to implement the things you read. The section will contain comprehension questions. It will also include some of the paragraphs or questions based on the Cognitive Science Journals. 

Examination Pattern:

The written test is the same for everyone. 

  • It contains 4 questions of comprehensive type and 1 of data interpretation. 
  • The total marks for the examination are 25 and the duration is 1 hour. 

Preparation Tips:

  • For preparation, you can simply take some random comprehensive type question off the internet and solve it. 
  • In his examination, my brother had passages from pathophysiology of neurodegenerative disorders, case-studies on behavioral experiments using VR/AR, etc. 
  • The questions are designed in a way that everyone can interpret them.

Be patient and stay motivated. All the best for your exam.

How should I attempt 16 mark questions from Anna University exams?

KJ
Kartar Jat Posted On : December 16th, 2022
Studied Electrical and Electronics Engineering

Firstly you need to change your aim. Rather than scoring good marks, your aim should be to acquire a better understanding of the concepts. This will help you in the long run. Follow these tips that will guide you on how to attempt 16 marks questions in Anna University exams:

  • Don’t extend the 16 marks answers to more than 5 pages.

  • Attend the question you are most well versed in first. Then keep moving in descending order.

  • Neat and tidy presentation never goes unnoticed. Use black ink for headings and blue for other parts. 

  • Assign a time limit to each answer (30 minutes per answer). This will give you proper time to write every answer.

  • Adding pencil-made sketches will fetch you extra marks.

Pro tip: Don’t write irrelevant information on your 2 marks answers. The examiner will assume you did the same for the 16 marks questions.

  • Technical Paper (CSE/ ME/ EE/ ECE): Marks- 300, Duration- 3 hours.

What are the Group Discussion topics for FMS Delhi?

DB
Divjot Bagga Posted On : January 10th, 2023
Guitarist, Philosopher

Politics and sports are typically not included in GD/PI topics because the panelists cannot assume that all participants are well-versed or even interested in these topics. The panelists prefer delivery over content. Of course, content cannot be completely pointless wishful thinking, but exceptional delivery will always win.

Do not rush into the GD. Most GDs end up being a raging bustle of people interrupting one another and raising their voices to be heard. It is far preferable to remain silent for nearly 70% of the GD time and let the others argue over one topic. When you break in, the others will be taken aback and will silently listen to you. That automatically elevates you to the position of leader and earns you a lot of points.

When asked to sum up, do not include 'your thoughts' or use this as an opportunity to bring up points that were not covered during the discussion. The summary should solely contain the details of the discussion.

Speak slowly and deliberately. You'll be able to express yourself more clearly, and your audience will hang on to every word you say. That automatically elevates you to a position of authority and power - true management potential.
