The Ministry, however, clarified that the impressive number of Engineers being selected has nothing to do with the syllabus as it offers an even playfield for all the candidates - irrespective of the streams they belong. The exam-takers are assessed on a wide range of topics like Quantitative Aptitude, English Comprehension, General Awareness, General Intelligence & Reasoning etc.
