ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING syllabus

GENERAL ABILITY TEST ( Common for All Branches) Part A General English. The question paper in General English will be designed to test the

candidates understanding of English and workmanlike use of words. Part B: General Studies: The paper in General Studies will include knowledge of current events and of such matters as of everyday observation and e perience in their scientific aspects as may be e pected of an educated person. The paper will also include questions on !istory of "ndia and Geography of a nature which candidates should be able to answer without special study.
