[Reply] Anonymous Says: April 14th, 2009 at 6:10 pm All those who say there were subjective questions in IIT 2009 paper are completely IDIOTS and out of there mind It was clearly mentioned on top of it that the answer was b/w 0-9(10 options provided) what else u want and those were not lyk in which u hav to word out something extraordinary……POINT : marks for each match Last time it was like if u get correct u get and if all rite then this time it was like if u get correct –>6 marx (double of the previous year case)…and correct (8 marx, so no loss of marx even if u missed one)……POINT : No assertion reason type I think everybody agrees its difficult to score in them especially when it comes down to option A or B i hope u understand……………POINT : Just look at the comprehensions of maths paper and compare it with those of previous years u will understand which are lengthier………… POINT : those who still say questions were subjective then one thing I would like to ask u for Writing the oxidn number of a compound(chem paper 2) u need to work out that in 2-3 pages?? nahi na…… one more example…simple pulley problem in physics in so called “SUBJECTIVE” problems…………………I hope that u will give it a thought once again….also the coaching institues are predicting ranks somethinh like 8000 at 168 The same thing happened in 2007 and everybody knows what happened…… THANK U Note : this i copied from goiit…not a piece of my creation [Reply] file://localhost/I:/Shashi/iit%20analysis.htm 09/09/09 19:54:12 IITJEE 2009 : Test paper Analysis | IITJEE and AIEEE Blog Page yashni reply on April 18th, 2009 12:05 pm: nice rly…………….u r tchr /stdnt?????????

One match the column required 7-8minutes to be solved!!!!! Aur saath hi aggar last year ki baat karein toh last year match the column simple the!!!!! can you expect a match the column from metallurgy and coordination compounds????????? No!!!! But last year that was there!!!! I think that cutoffs for AIR 9000 will not exceed 155 in anycase!!!!!!!! All the very best!!!!!!!!

Last year if you think that the paper was a tough one then this years paper was the toughest!!!!!! An average minded student just managed to score a sum of 172 to qualify the cutoffs the last year but if you really observe the paper with a good eye upon it I am sure that you will surely agree with me!!!!! This year firstly the seats have increased and secondly the change in paper pattern will surely decrease the cutoffs and the experts says that the cutoffs will not exceed 160-155 in any case!!!!!! hope you must have got what a general average student thinks and expects!!!!!!
