IIT JEE Advanced Examination – 2016 was conducted on 22 May 2016. The examination consisted of two papers – Paper -1 and Paper-2. There were three parts in each paper – Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. This article talks about the detailed analysis of Physics part of the paper.
There were 18 questions of physics in each paper. So, a total of 36 questions were asked from Physics. As compared to other parts of the paper Physics paper was tough and demanded more time.
A detailed analysis of the questions asked from each chapter has been provided in the table.
