Re: IGIDR Syllabus MSc
Some sample questions based on the entrance exam syllabus for preparation for admission to M. Sc. Programme in IGIDR (Indira Gandhi Institute of Development Research) are as follows: TEST I TEST OF COMPREHENSION, REASONING AND ANALYTICAL ABILITY This test is designed to examine the candidates verbal ability, analytical reasoning and quantitative skills. Read the following passage and answer the questions Q.1 to Q.3. Of the 197 million square miles making up the surface of the globe, 71 percent is covered by the interconnecting bodies of marine water; the Pacific Ocean alone covers half the Earth and averages nearly 14, 000 feet in depth. The continents - Eurasia, Africa, North America, South America, Australia and Antarctica - are the portions of the continental masses rising above sea level. The submerged borders of the continental masses are the continental shelves, beyond which lie the deep-sea basins. The oceans attain their greatest depths not in their central parts, but in certain elongated furrows, or long narrow troughs, called deeps. The profound troughs have a peripheral arrangement, notably around the borders of the Pacific and Indian oceans. The position of the deeps near the continental masses suggests that the deeps, like the highest mountains, are of recent origin, since otherwise they would have been filled with waste from the lands. This suggestion is strengthened by the fact that the deeps are frequently the sites of the world-shaking earthquakes. For example, the tidal wave that in April, 1946, caused widespread destruction along Pacific coasts resulted from a strong earthquake on the floor of the Aleutian Deep. Q.1. Which of the following would be the most appropriate title for the passage? (1) Features of the Earths Surface (2) Marine Topography (3) The Causes of Earthquakes (4) Primary Geologic Considerations (5) How to prevent Erosion. Ans. : (1) Q.2. According to the passage, the peripheral furrows or deeps are found (1) only in the Pacific and Indian oceans (2) near earthquakes (3) near the shore (4) in the centre of the ocean (5) to be 14,000 feet in depth in the Pacific. Ans. : (3) Q.3. From this passage, it can be inferred that earthquakes (1) occur only in the peripheral furrows (2) occur more frequently in newly formed land or sea formations. (3) are a prime cause of soil erosion (4) will ultimately make mountains level (5) are caused by the weight of the water Ans. : (2) Entrance Exam Sample Questions M. Sc.
