How to find your branch in the PDF
The document is arranged branch by branch, and each branch has a three digit code at the top of its page. A few of them:
- 101 Aeronautical Engineering
- 104 Computer Science and Engineering
- 106 Electronics and Communication Engineering
- 114 Mechanical Engineering
- 205 Information Technology
- 243 Artificial Intelligence and Data Science
Use the search option in your PDF viewer and type the branch name or code. That gets you there faster than scrolling through 158 pages. Students who took an elective offered by another department should read that department’s pages too, since the university says to follow the time table of the branch that offers the subject.
Preparation tip
Look at the gaps between your papers. Some branches have only a day or two between exams, and others get a week. Plan your revision backwards from the paper that comes first, and keep the lighter subjects (the ones with a big gap before them) for the end. If your first paper is on 18 or 19 November, there is very little time left, so start with the units you find hardest.
