DSE 2019

[Ydman]

Any views on the MA eco 2019 ? I felt it was a bit on the tougher side .  What would be the safe zone attempts ?

[Ss.]

yes agreed.
it was imbalanced. Micro was hardly there.

[Ydman]

yes , mostly math and stats

[Blateal]

Have you checked the answer key in the du site.... ? Answer kinda seems wrong ... What do you think ?

[Ydman]

yes i saw that , dont worry those are just dummy answers , the correct key would only be published on 09 july

[Malthusian]

I attempted 30 questions. How many were you guys able to do? Do you think the cutoff this year be lower than the last two years?

[Ydman]

i did 33 , with a probable errors . but No i do not think the cutoffs would dip as compared to the last year .

[Malthusian]

I am expecting a score of 110... I guess I can forget about getting into DSE :(

[Ydman]

last year i think the cutof was 108+ , just in case it drops then youre good ,

[Malthusian]

I calculated my score...no hope now :'(
What is your score?

[Ydman]

103 aprox , see , for two quest. the answer key shows the wrong answer , for question id , 2909 it should be at most 99 left shoes and for quest. id . 2928 it should be f"(x) = 3 for x in (2,4) .

[Malthusian]

What do you think about the ecotrix question about measuring in decades instead of years? If we are dividing the variable by 10 then shouldn't we multiply the coefficient by 10?

[Ydman]

yes , that one too , so it should be 0.900 !

[Ydman]

do you know how to solve questipn id : 2916 ?
i ve marked option id 11662

[Malthusian]

Answer should be all of the above...even I've marked the wrong answer but I think the answer key is right about this particular question.

Btw, do you agree with the rest of the answer key? I have doubts for a few more questions...

give the question nos . we can discuss it

[Ydman]

while adding an objection , do we have to refer to the option id of the correct answer in the interim answer key or the one which we feel is correct ?

[Malthusian]

I think we need to mention the one we think is correct. Which answers are you objecting to? I have objected to 3 and am thinking of objecting to 1 more.

im objecting to question id : 2928 and 2955 ...which ones do u think are wrong ?

[Yash21]

2928 is actually correct. The functional form is x². So f''(x) = 2.
