Joint Entrance Examination (NCHMCT)
May 13, 2006
We are pleased to present you the detailed analysis of Joint Entrance Examination (NCHMCT) held on May 13, 2006.
As it was declared the paper was divided into five sections, viz. Numerical Ability and Scientific Aptitude, Reasoning
and Logical Deduction, General Knowledge, English Language and Service and Hospitality Aptitude. Overall the
paper was moderate. The NCHMCT has followed the traditional pattern this year again. There was not as such
surprise element in the test and most of the questions directly from PT material. There was weighted marking
system for Service Sector Aptitude section. There was a negative marking for wrongly marked answer but it was
not quantified, so while solving the questions one should try to be accurate.
