Moving to the preliminary examination, we come across sets of questions in which each set consists of two statements and you are required to solve 3 &#8211; 5 questions using the statements. In the mains examination, one set consists of three statements, and around 5 questions depending on those statements are asked.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>3.4.
