Take note
- Each subject’s two papers should be written continuously in one sitting without a pause.
- Discrepancy between question papers and timetable time: If the time duration on the question paper is different from the one on the timetable, follow the time on the question paper.
- Addition time for candidates with vision and hearing challenges: Candidates with visual and hearing challenges will be given one and a half times (1 1/2) the time allocated to other candidates.
