Required % = [latex]\frac{928}{ 1624}[/latex]*100 = 57%
72.
Answer:Option E
Explanation: People in village D = 25% of 5800 = 1450 Required no. of people = {100 – (20 + 12)}% of 1450 = 68% of 1450 = 986
73.

We have 60% of 50 =[latex]\frac{60}{100}[/latex]*50 = 30 Required numbe r= No. of students scoring 30 and above marks in Physics = 32
78.
Answer:Option c
Explanation:
Number of students getting at least 60% marks in Chemistry = Number of students getting 30 and above marks in Chemistry = 21. Number of students getting at least 40% marks in aggregate = Number of students getting 20 and above marks in aggregate = 73. Required percentage [latex]\frac{21}{73}[/latex]*100 = 28.77% = 29%.
79.
Answer:Option D
Explanation: We have 40% of 50 =[latex]\frac{40}{100}[/latex]*50 = 20 Therefore Required number = Number of students scoring less than 20 marks in aggregate = 100 - Number of students scoring 20 and above marks in aggregate = 100 - 73 = 27.
80.
Answer:Option c
Explanation: Since 66 students get 20 and above marks in Chemistry and out of these 21 students get 30 and above marks, therefore to select top 35 students in Chemistry, the qualifying marks should lie in the range 20-30.

(1) To elaborate briefly on these characteristics and dimensions that the author is talking about – NRMs are general tests intended to be used to classify students by percentile for measuring either aptitude or proficiency for admissions into or placement within a program.
(2) Contrastingly, the CRM, such as a locally produced achievement test, measures absolute performance that is compared only with the learning objective, hence a perfect score is theoretically obtainable by all students who have a mastery of the pre-specified material, or conversely, all students may fail the test.
(3) In most of these books, the authors classify a measurement strategy as either norm-referenced (NRM) or criterion-referenced (CRM).
(4) Another author points out how the type of interpretation that an NRM offers is the relative performance of the students compared with that of all the others resulting in, ideally, a bell curves distribution.
(5) Numerous books on constructing and using language tests have been written by various authors.
(6) CRM, on the other hand, are more specific, achievement or diagnostic tests intended to be used for motivating students by measuring to what percent they have achieved mastery of the thought or learned material.
(7) One of the authors clearly delineates the differences between these two types by focusing on the categories of “test characteristics” and “logistical dimensions.”

Directions (Qs. 101-107) : Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it. Certain words/phrases are printed in bold to help you to locate them while answering some of the questions.
In many countries, a combustible mixture of authoritarianism, unemployment and youth has given rise to disaffection with strongmen rulers which has in turn spill over into uprising. Young people in these countries are far better educated than their parents were. In 1990 the average Egyptian had 4.4 years of schooling; by 2010 the figure had risen to 7.1 years. Could it be that education, by making people less willing to put up with restrictions on freedom and more willing to question authority, promotes democratization. Ideas about the links between education, Income and democracy are at the heart of what social scientists have long studied. Since then plenty of economists and political scientists have looked for statistical evidence of a causal link between education and democratization. Many have pointed to the strong correlation that exists between levels of education and measures like the pluralism of party politics and the existence of civil liberties. The patterns are similar when income and democracy are considered. There are outliers, of course – until recently, many Arab countries managed to combine energy-based wealth and decent education with undemocratic political systems. But some deduce from the overall picture that as China and other authoritarian states get more educated and richer, their people will agitate for greater political freedom, culminating in a shift to a more democratic form of government
This apparently reasonable intuition is shakier than it seems. Critics of the hypothesis point out that correlation is hardly causation. The general trend over the past half century may have been towards rising living standards, a wider spread of basic education and more democracy, but it is entirely possible that this is being by another variable. Even if the correlation were not spurious, it would be difficult to know which way causation ran. Does more education lead to greater democracy? Or are more democratic countries better at educating their citizens? A recent NBER paper compared a group of Kenyan girls in 69 primary school whose students were randomly selected to receive a scholarship with similar students in schools which received no such financial aid. Previous studies has shown that the scholarship programme led to higher test scores and increased the likelihood that girls enrolled in secondary school. Overall, it significantly increased the amount of education obtained. For the new study the authors tried to see how the extra schooling had affected the political and social attitudes of the women in question. Findings suggested that education may make people more interested in improving their own lives but they may not necessarily see democracy as the way to do it. Even in established democracies, more education does not always mean either more active political participation or greater faith in democracy. Poorer and less educated people often vote in larger numbers than their more educated compatriots, who often express disdain for the messiness of democracy, yearning for the kind of government that would deal strongly with the corrupt and build highways, railway lines and bridges at a dizzying pace of authoritarian China.

Solutions: For Q(81-115)
81.
Answer:Option D
Explanation:
Option D is the answer and there are two reasons for it. First one is that from the context of situation independence of women from the man's world is indicated so some word to show dependency should be used. Depend and Rest both show dependence so these are the answers. Second one is that as blank space is followed by ON a word that connects grammatically so it should be used. Both 'depend on' and 'rest on' are the correct usage, so it confirms the selection on basis of the first reason. Other options are not logical.
82.
Answer:Option E
Explanation:
Confiscated – means to officially take something away from somebody, especially as a punishment. Seized definitely fits in the blank therefore option E is correct.
83.
Answer:Option A
Explanation:
Organization and mission are two words which can be connected with committed or dedicated both the verbs - organizations committed/ dedicated to …..Objectives. Other words like kicked off/inaugurated/ succumbed do not match for objectives of organization.
84.
Answer:Option C
Explanation:
Holding and Possessing both gives the same meaning and sense to the sentence. Surrendering is inappropriate. Mastering can not be linked with passports. Fixating is also incorrect for the blank space as it gives no logical sense to the sentence. Examining can grammatically fit into the blank but not in the context of passage and would give a different direction to what is being said in the sentence.
