How to Use LBS Kerala MCA Previous Year Papers?
- Work at one question a minute. 120 questions in 120 minutes leaves 60 seconds each. Computer Science has 50 of the 120 marks, so give it about 50 minutes.
- Answer every question. There is no negative marking, so a blank scores 0 while a guess may score 1. Mark only one bubble, because two bubbles count as a wrong answer.
- Score Computer Science first. Ties are broken on Computer Science marks, then Mathematics and Statistics, then Quantitative Aptitude. A strong Computer Science score helps twice.
- Check answers yourself. Neither booklet has an answer key, so work out the Mathematics and aptitude answers fully and check Computer Science answers from your textbooks.
- Plan for June 2027. About seven months remain, with applications expected in April and May 2027. Solve 2025 first, then 2023, and repeat both closer to the exam.
