Concepts taught in class

Student Opinion

No attendance. I basically attended only one class. You should have a basic understanding of materials, all the courses that you've been taught will be helpful. All round, the course is pretty easy. There was a presentation and also an egg drop project, and they carried almost half your grade.

How to Crack the Paper

Refer to previous papers. Although same questions aren't asked, the model and mark distribution is same. Chances are that one or two questions are asked from previous papers. The questions asked are framed based on everyday observations. One of the questions in 2023 end sem was to guess, justify and write down materials used in chandrayaan 3.
