Module Description
For mastering the concepts only learning is not sufficient. We have to practice and apply those concepts
in problem solving. This sheet does just that. It contains a collection of problems segregated in the
following exercises to help you master the concepts in a systematic and organized way,
“Practice makes a man perfect”
1. Concept builder —1 & 14
As soon as you have fin s first.

like more than one correct, matching list, match the column, ete.
2. Brain Booster— 2 & 2A
Now that you have built your concepts it’s time to master them by solving Brain Boosting problems.
Don’t hurry through these problems. Take time to solve & learn fiom them. These exercises
contains Medium & Tough level problems.
Do questions from 2 & 2A after attempting 1 & 1A
