For the special round, are there any marks for steps if the final answer is wrong? thx.

If i m not wrong, its the same OAS format. 1st 10 qns worth 4 marks. nxt (and last) 10 qns worth 5 marks each.

Hi CoffeeCat,

Can you upload the 1st round NMOS paper so that my ds can recall his answers.
Thanks.

Huh? How you get these answers? You have the questions?

Some schools do return the papers to the students. I have a student who took the test. After seeing him bugging me for the answers, I think there should be other students out there who might be curious to check their answers too. Hence I decided to post my \"unofficial\" ans :).

Based on your answers, my ds scored less than 50% although he got into the special round.

Yep, this shows how hard the recent NMOS paper is.

Anybody know why the NMOS special round ends at around 11am when they r suppose to report there at 8:30am and paper time is only 1.5hrs? Are they starting at 9:30am?
