Lat year I got 189 marks. This year I have attempted (230+240). But basically I am disappointed with my performance. I did not cover many topics and could not revise on last day. I depended on notes instead of books.
thx @BULLA LETS HOPE THE BEST FOR U ALSO ....DNT WORRY 470 IS V.GOOD attempt this time some questions are very typical..........i am xpecting scores for all optionals in line with 2013 pattern......
last day that too halfday how can one revise the 1year of hardwork utmost u can just see each topic at a glance that to if u had made a onepage note for each topic even that we cannot cover p1,p2...so same is for everyone .....so dont worry if u had written 350-400 marks for quality and just avg for remaining question u will get good score..
