AIEEE 2010 : Exam Analysis
The AIEEE 2010 exam was conducted on Sunday, 25th April, 2010 and no less than eleven lakh students have applied for it this year. The general plan and schedule for the examination was as follows:

The paper had differential marking scheme which made it slightly difficult to get through easily. Students of Career Forum would have easily met the situation very comfortably. The CF PreTESTs’ were exactly in accordance with today’s test.
There were Multiple Choice Questions (MCQ-type, with four options including single correct answer) carrying either 4 marks or 8 marks. For each incorrect response, 25 % (1/4 th) of mark would be deducted and more than one answer indicated against one question will be treated as incorrect response/answer. Every section had 24 questions of 4 marks & 6 questions of 8 marks.
Difficulty Level of the Paper:
Experts at Career Forum feel that the paper was slightly ABOVE AVERAGE. The best part was that in every section there was enough chance of getting easy & average questions to score marks. Many tough questions were actually high scoring 8 mark questions & were totally a risky drive.
Sectionwise Difficulty Analysis:
Physics:
Physics was 20 numerical questions and 10 conceptual ones. Since mathematical problems in physics can prove to be a weak point for students who are not strong in mathematics, every effort should be made to attempt non-numerical questions. You could easily answer at least 10 non-mathematical questions (33% among 30 questions) in the physics paper. The paper was AVERAGE-PLUS. Scoring in this section could be quite easy for the CBSE students.

Chemistry:
Chemistry section will bring in twist for the scoring of the merit list. Tough Physical chemistry questions from different sections of the portions dominated the paper, followed by Inorganic and finally Organic. Deep study of the section was required to get through the Physical Chemistry questions. The section can be said as AVERAGE-PLUS. The pattern was identical to 2009 exam. Many questions were similar to the questions in AIEEE 2009. Expected cut-off in this section can go above 45+.

Mathematics:
Career Forum students were overjoyed seeing the question paper. The reason was simple; approximately 12 out of 90 questions were from our tech sheet and test papers. Overall the paper can be said as an AVERAGE one, dominated by all chapters in equal weightage. Leave aside the 6 tough questions and an aspirant can get the rest alright. One question on trigonometry was asked from Properties of Triangles, which is not mentioned in the AIEEE 2010 syllabus as per the brochure. Expected cut-off will be somewhere between 40 – 55 marks.

Expected cut-off of AIEEE 2010:
We would like to keep our expected cut-offs’ reserved for the time-being. As per the primary feel of the test takers and the Career Forum experts, there could be rise in the cut-off, as the paper was adjudged AVERAGE-PLUS. Although “the speed breakers and a couple of tricky questions might have made the situation difficult. Expected cut-off may lie between 105 marks – 130 marks.
Declaration of the Results of AIEEE 2010:
Results of AIEEE 2010 will be declared on or before 7th June 2010. On the basis of performance in AIEEE, separate rank lists will be prepared for B.E./B.Tech. and B.Arch/B.Planning. Score Card indicating All India Rank and State Rank with total marks and marks in each subject shall be sent to all candidates appearing in AIEEE. The score cards will be dispatches to the candidates from 12th June to 27th June 2010.
