FM paper pattern

First of all, The final exam in which you are going to appear will include two sections

1. Section A: OT Questions
   • 15 OT questions having 2 marks each
2. Section B: OT Cases
   • 3 OT cases having 5 OTs in each case
3. Section C: 2
   • Constructive response questions, 20 Marks for each question

---

Probably the Reason for unsuccessful attempts of FM

• Not enough practice on the past paper questions
• Poor time management in the exam
• Similarly Not attempting all parts of the given question
• Not explaining the answer as expected by the examiner
• Almost Lack sufficient knowledge about the subject area
• Panic in the exam when you see something unseen on the question booklet
• Many students just read the solution to questions, they don’t try to write every part of the question by themself

---

In FM you have to do practice in 3 different types of areas,
1- Simple MCQs OR OT questions (30 Marks questions)
2-OT case- A case study will be given and related 5 questions, you need to read and understand the case study and answer the related 5 questions. (30 Marks)
3-Constructive Response area: (40 Marks)
Must Practice all areas from past papers

Therefore Remember mostly students when fails a 49, They claim that they are failed by 1 mark, This is not true, Almost you were failed by 51 Marks 🙂 Keep in mind and practice very well
