The paper was quite fair and within the reach of any candidate who had prepared well for the examination. All the questions were within the content of the syllabus and there was no ambiguity of any sort. The standard of the paper as well as the clarity of the rubrics were maintained.
The marking scheme was as usual, flexible to accommodate various approaches presented by the candidates in solving the problems. Apparently, the performance of the candidates was not significantly different from those of the previous years.
