If the participant exceeds the time limit, the questions left unanswered will be considered incorrect and will be marked accordingly. The time limit for each Level in Stage 1 will be 5 minutes.

** All the questions will require the Participant to choose the correct answer from two or more options. Each Level in Stage 1 consists of ten questions pertaining to the difficulty of the Level and the category. The Participant can only attempt Level 2 after completing Level 1, and Level 3 after completing Level 2 in each category.

** The Participant will receive 10 points for every correct answer and no points for an incorrect answer. There will be no negative. Each of the Levels in Stage 1 in all the categories can be taken as many times as the Participant would like, using the same email id and Password. The score secured by the Participant in his last attempt will be considered as the valid score for evaluation.

Stage 2:

** Stage 2 will consist of ten questions, and can only be attempted once. Each question in Stage 2 will be timebound and if the participant exceeds the time limit, the questions left unanswered will be considered incorrect and will be marked accordingly. The time limit for each question will vary as per weightage assigned to the question. Each question in Stage 2 will be assigned different weightage based on the difficulty level.

** The aggregate marks scored by the Participant in Stage 1 will be only considered for his entry into Stage 2 and not for the final evaluation. Participants will be shortlisted after the completion of Stage 2.
