MCS 220 Solved Guess Paper is a session focused revision file for IGNOU MCA_NEW learners who have finished reading Web Technologies but still cannot predict what the examiner will actually ask in June 2026 or December 2026. MCS-220 is the Semester II theory paper on J2EE, Servlets, JSP, Spring, Hibernate and web security, and it carries 100 marks across a three hour Term End Examination.
The file you are looking at was not assembled by skimming a syllabus PDF. Our team sat with five years of MCS-220 question papers and the most recent December 2025 sitting, marked every topic that repeated, and then wrote full length answers in the phrasing IGNOU evaluators reward. What follows on this page is a genuine sample so you can judge the answer quality before you spend anything.
What Is Inside the MCS 220 Solved Guess Paper for 2026
The file contains 12 fully solved questions across 23 pages, covering all four blocks of MCS-220 and carrying roughly 240 marks of written answers against a 100 mark paper. That surplus is deliberate. Because you attempt only three of Question 2 to Question 5, the extra coverage gives you choice inside the exam hall instead of a single fragile prediction.
Every answer opens with a definition lifted from the IGNOU MCS-220 textbook, then develops the numbered points, comparison table or lifecycle diagram the question demands, and closes with an evaluative conclusion. Word targets follow the marks, so a 20 mark answer runs to about 450 words, a 10 mark part to about 250 words and a short note to about 150 words.
Six of the twelve answers carry a comparison table, because MCS-220 examiners repeatedly ask you to differentiate GenericServlet from HttpServlet, HttpSession from Cookies, and Spring Boot from Spring MVC. Tables score faster than paragraphs and are far easier to recall under time pressure. If you also want the raw papers behind this analysis, our IGNOU Previous Year Question Paper section keeps them organised session by session.

What is J2EE? Discuss the basic parts of the J2EE application model. Also, explain the various components of J2EE architecture with the help of a suitable block diagram.
Meaning of J2EE
"The J2EE platform is a set of services, application programming interfaces (APIs) and protocols. J2EE is used to develop and deploy multi-tier web-based enterprise applications using a series of protocols and application programming interfaces (APIs)." — IGNOU Textbook
J2EE (Java 2 Enterprise Edition) resides on top of the Java Standard Edition (Java SE) platform. It contains several APIs such as Java Servlets, Java Server Pages (JSP), Enterprise Java Beans (EJB), Java Database Connectivity (JDBC), Java Message Service (JMS) and Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI). For complex applications, J2EE frameworks like Struts, Spring and Hibernate are used.
Basic Parts of the J2EE Application Model
- Components — Application developers work on the components part. Components are reusable software units such as servlets, JSPs and Enterprise Beans.
- Containers — System vendors are responsible for implementing containers. Containers act as a mediator between clients and components by providing services like transaction support and resource pooling.
- Connectors — Connectors provide bidirectional communication between J2EE components and enterprise information systems (EIS).
Components / Tiers of J2EE Architecture
- Presentation (Client) Tier — The client-side component visible to the client and running on the client's machine. Examples include a web browser, Java App Client, wireless clients or Java Web Start-enabled clients.
- Application (Web) Tier — The web-side layer that runs on the J2EE server inside the Web Container. It uses Servlets and JSP pages to handle HTTP requests and generate dynamic web content.
- Business Tier — The business layer that runs on the J2EE server inside the EJB Container. It includes server-side business logic implemented as JavaBeans / Enterprise Beans. The EJB container controls the execution of Enterprise Beans and provides local and remote access to them.
- Resource / EIS Tier — The resource adapter component comprises the Enterprise Information System layer such as a Relational Database, accessed through the JPA Persistence Engine.
Web Container and EJB Container
The Java EE Container is a server platform on which Java components run using APIs. The Web Container hosts Servlets and JSP pages, while the EJB Container hosts Enterprise Beans and the JPA Persistence Engine that interacts with the Relational Database. Together they form the runtime backbone of any J2EE deployment.
Conclusion: J2EE is a platform of APIs, services and protocols for multi-tier enterprise applications, structured into Components, Containers and Connectors and deployed across four tiers — Presentation, Application, Business and Resource. This separation enables scalability, reusability and maintainability for industry-grade web applications.

Differentiate between HttpSession and Cookies. Also explain Persistent vs Non-persistent cookies.
"Cookies are a small part of information like a name, a single value and optional attributes such as comment, path and domain qualifiers, a maximum age, and a version number. A servlet sends this cookie information to a web browser. It is saved by the browser and later sent back to the server." — IGNOU Textbook
The browser typically supports 20 cookies for each Web server, 300 cookies total and may limit cookie size to 4 KB each. A cookie is created using the Cookie class in javax.servlet.http, added to the response with response.addCookie(c) and retrieved using request.getCookie().
| Feature | HttpSession | Cookies |
|---|---|---|
| Storage | On the server | On the client browser |
| Data type | Any object | Text only |
| Security | More secure | Less secure and visible to user |
| Size limit | Large and bound by server memory | 4 KB per cookie |
| Identification | Server-side session id | Cookie value sent in each request |
| Dependency | Independent of browser | Fails if cookies disabled |
Persistent vs Non-persistent Cookies
There are two types of cookies in servlets, Non-persistent cookie and Persistent cookie. A Non-persistent cookie is effective for a single session only and is removed each time the user closes the browser. A Persistent cookie is effective for multiple sessions and is removed only when the user logs out or its max-age expires.
Conclusion: Session management overcomes the stateless nature of HTTP. HttpSession stores user state on the server with a unique session id, while Cookies store small data on the client. HttpSession is more secure and flexible, whereas cookies are lighter, and the choice between persistent and non-persistent cookies depends on how long state must be retained.

Discuss the Spring framework. Explain the role of Dependency Injection (DI), Inversion of Control (IoC) and Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) in the Spring framework with suitable examples.
"The spring framework is a lightweight and open-source Java platform that provides solutions to various technical problems through J2EE applications. Initially, the Spring framework was released under the Apache 2.0 license, and Rod Johnson wrote it in June 2003." — IGNOU Textbook, citing Rod Johnson, June 2003
Spring is a 'framework of frameworks' that supports other frameworks like Struts and Hibernate through an extensive programming and configuration model. The basic version is around 2 MB. Its fundamental design principle is "Open for extension, closed for modification". Spring uses techniques like Dependency Injection, Inversion of Control, Plain Old Java Object (POJO) and Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) to develop enterprise applications.
Inversion of Control (IoC)
Inversion of Control is based on the abstraction principle of object-oriented programming, where program objects depend not on implementations but on interfaces of other objects for interaction. The inversion principle states that class dependencies should be configured from outside and not statically, and they should not be hard-coded.
Dependency Injection (DI)
Dependency Injection is a structural design pattern and a vital aspect of the Spring framework's implementation of IoC. In this technique, Spring containers inject an object into other dependencies, so the dependent objects are created outside of a class and then provided through a class reference. There are typically three types of DI: Constructor Injection, Setter Injection and Interface Injection.
The textbook example: a Car class containing wheels, fuel, battery and engine. If we decide to change a TATA battery to an AMARON battery, dependency injection lets us inject the new battery at runtime rather than recreating the entire car object at compile time.
Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP)
Aspect-Oriented Programming is a programming style where instead of OOPS objects, aspects are used. An aspect is a class that spans multiple application nodes distributed across methods, classes, object hierarchies and object models, such as logging, security and transaction. The Spring AOP module intercepts an application through interceptors to add extra functionality during method execution, before or after.
Conclusion: Spring's strength lies in three pillars. IoC decouples object creation from object use, DI structurally injects dependencies at runtime, and AOP cleanly separates cross-cutting concerns. Together they enable lightweight, modular, POJO-based enterprise development that is significantly easier and faster than classical J2EE.

Explain Hibernate Architecture with the help of a diagram and its core components. Discuss the various states of the Hibernate Entity Life Cycle.
"Hibernate is a lightweight, open-source Java framework that simplifies the database interaction during Java application development. Hibernate implements the Java Persistence API specifications and bridges the gap between the java object and the relational database to provide data persistence." — IGNOU Textbook
Core Components of Hibernate Architecture
- Configuration — Holds the configuration properties such as database configuration file and class mapping files.
- SessionFactory — A factory of sessions that provides a factory method to get the session object. It is a heavyweight, immutable object created once at application startup, shared among all sessions, and lives till Hibernate is running.
- Session — Provides an interface between the application and the database. A lightweight object instantiated whenever an application requires database interaction. Provides methods for create, read, update and delete operations.
- TransactionFactory — A factory of Transaction that offers methods for transaction management.
- ConnectionProvider — An optional factory of JDBC connections.
Hibernate Entity Lifecycle States
- Transient — An object created using the new operator in Java but not associated with any session, Entity Manager or database row. Modifications to it do not impact the database.
- Persistent — When a transient entity is saved, it becomes associated with a session and enters the persistent state. The session keeps track of every modification and propagates the changes to the database automatically. Hibernate methods that produce a persistent state are session.save(), session.update(), session.saveOrUpdate(), session.lock() and session.merge().
- Detached — Calling session methods such as clear(), evict() or close() moves a persistent object to the detached state. A detached entity has a corresponding row in the database, but session no longer tracks changes. It can be re-attached by calling session.update(), session.merge() or session.saveOrUpdate().
- Removed — When a persistent object is passed through session.delete(), it enters the removed state. On commit, the corresponding row in the database is deleted. The Java instance still exists, but any change made to it will not be saved.
Conclusion: Hibernate's layered architecture bridges Java objects and relational tables seamlessly. Its four-state entity lifecycle, Transient to Persistent to Detached to Removed, gives developers fine-grained control over when and how data is synchronised with the database.
Sample 5 of 5 · Block 4 Unit 12 · 20 marks
Discuss the following web application security vulnerabilities with examples: (i) Cross Site Scripting (XSS) (ii) Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) (iii) SQL Injection (SQLi) (iv) Denial of Service (DoS) (v) Insecure Direct Object References (IDOR).
(i) Cross Site Scripting (XSS)
Cross site scripting (XSS) is a kind of client-side code injection attack. The attacker executes malicious script into the web browser of the victim by including malicious code into benign and trusted websites. Attackers mostly use forums, message boards and pages that allow comments. XSS is most common in JavaScript and can also occur in VBScript, ActiveX, Flash and even CSS. Malicious JavaScript can access session cookies, so if attackers obtain a user's session cookie, they can impersonate the user and gain access to sensitive data.
(iii) SQL Injection (SQLi)
SQL Injection is among the most common threats to data security. It is a type of injection attack that exploits application security weakness and allows attackers to execute malicious SQL statements, accessing or deleting records, changing data-driven behaviour or bypassing authentication. Any web application using a relational database such as MySQL, Oracle or SQL Server can be impacted. Example: a URL like show_balances?user_id=1234 may be tampered with to user_id=0 OR 1=1, turning the query into SELECT accountNumber, balance FROM accounts WHERE account_owner_id=0 OR 1=1, returning all users' balances.
Parts (ii) CSRF, (iv) Denial of Service and (v) Insecure Direct Object References are answered at the same length inside the complete MCS-220 file, along with the mitigation paragraph on input validation, anti-CSRF tokens and parameterised queries that earns the closing marks.
Those five samples come from Units 1, 3, 6, 10 and 12, which means you have now seen one answer from every block of MCS-220. The remaining seven questions cover Servlet architecture and life cycle, JSP life cycle and implicit objects, design patterns, Spring Boot components, ORM mapping types with HQL, role based access control and the short note bank.
MCS-220 Guess Paper Page Previews Before You Order
Seven actual pages from the MCS-220 file are shown below, unedited, so you can check formatting, font size and answer density before deciding. We publish previews rather than a marketing mock-up because most disappointment with guess papers comes from files that look nothing like their advertising.
Complete Question Index of the MCS-220 Guess Paper File
All 12 questions in the MCS-220 file are listed below with their marks weight and the specific concepts each answer develops, so nothing about the purchase is hidden. Five of these are already open on this page, and the other seven carry the same structure of definition, body and conclusion.
| No. | Question focus | Marks | Concepts developed in the answer | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Q1 | J2EE architecture and components | 20 | Components, containers, connectors, four tier model, Web and EJB containers | Open above |
| Q2 | Servlet architecture and life cycle | 10 + 10 | javax.servlet packages, GenericServlet against HttpServlet, init, service, destroy | In file |
| Q3 | JSP life cycle and implicit objects | 10 + 10 | jspInit, _jspService, jspDestroy, out, request, response, session, application | In file |
| Q4 | Session management with HttpSession and Cookies | 10 + 10 | Four session strategies, session id allotment, persistent against non-persistent cookies | Open above |
| Q5 | Singleton and Repository design patterns | 10 + 10 | 23 GoF patterns, private constructor rules, repository between domain and data mapping | In file |
| Q6 | Spring framework with IoC, DI and AOP | 20 | Rod Johnson 2003 origin, three DI types, aspects, interceptors, cross-cutting concerns | Open above |
| Q7 | Spring Boot against Spring MVC | 10 + 10 | Starters, autoconfiguration, Initializr, Actuator, CLI, DispatcherServlet contrast | In file |
| Q8 | Hibernate architecture and entity lifecycle | 20 | SessionFactory, Session, TransactionFactory, transient to removed state transitions | Open above |
| Q9 | ORM and Hibernate Query Language | 10 + 10 | Four mapping annotations, JPQL, HQL select, update, delete and bulk insert syntax | In file |
| Q10 | Web application security vulnerabilities | 20 | XSS, CSRF, SQLi, DoS and IDOR with worked URL tampering examples | Partly open |
| Q11 | Role based login and RBAC | 10 + 10 | SecurityContextHolder, GrantedAuthority, UserDetails, @Secured, @PreAuthorize | In file |
| Q12 | Short note bank for the compulsory question | 4 × 5 | Maven phases, Bootstrap 5, JCA providers, Java annotations, Spring Boot Actuator | In file |
Q12 deserves a word of explanation. Because Question 1 of the MCS-220 paper is compulsory and made of eight five mark sub-parts, the short note bank is not filler. It is the section that directly feeds 40 of your 100 marks, which is why we wrote it last and kept every entry tight. Students comparing this against a plain MCS 220 Question paper often miss that the compulsory section rewards breadth rather than depth.
MCS-220 Block and Unit Wise Coverage of Web Technologies
MCS-220 Web Technologies is delivered as 4 blocks and 14 units, and the guess paper draws from every one of the four blocks. The table below is the official structure taken from the IGNOU Self Learning Material on eGyanKosh, with our own note on how heavily each unit has been examined.
| Block | Unit | Unit title | Examination weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| Block 1 Web Application Development Using J2EE | 1 | Introduction to J2EE, Architecture and Design Pattern | Very heavy, both J2EE tiers and Singleton appear repeatedly |
| 2 | Basics of Servlet | Heavy, life cycle methods and GenericServlet contrast | |
| 3 | Session Management and Database Connectivity in Servlet | Very heavy, HttpSession against Cookies is near permanent | |
| 4 | Java Server Pages | Heavy, life cycle methods plus implicit object listing | |
| Block 2 Frameworks for J2EE | 5 | Introduction to J2EE Frameworks | Moderate, usually as a framework overview part |
| 6 | Frameworks Available for J2EE Development, Struts, Hibernate, Spring | Very heavy, IoC, DI and AOP plus Struts interceptors | |
| 7 | Spring MVC Concepts | Heavy, DispatcherServlet and the Spring Boot contrast | |
| 8 | Spring MVC with Bootstrap CSS | Moderate, custom CSS inside JSP has appeared recently | |
| Block 3 Spring Boot and Hibernate (ORM) | 9 | Introduction to Spring Boot | Heavy, components, advantages and microservices framing |
| 10 | Configuration of Hibernate (ORM) | Very heavy, architecture, annotations, lazy loading, HQL | |
| 11 | CRUD Application Using Spring Boot and Hibernate | Moderate, usually as repository and CrudRepository parts | |
| Block 4 Web Security | 12 | Spring Security Configuration | Very heavy, the vulnerability question sits here |
| 13 | Custom Login Using Security | Light, occasional message digest and JCA linkage | |
| 14 | Role Based Login | Heavy, RBAC against permission based authentication |
A note on MCS-220 practical work and lab files
MCS-220 itself is a theory paper of 4 credits and carries no practical file of its own. The hands on component for this subject sits in MCSL-222 OOAD and Web Technologies Lab, a separate 2 credit practical course in the same semester, which is where your lab record and viva are assessed. Do not expect J2EE programs to be marked in the MCS-220 answer script, and do not spend revision hours memorising long code listings for it.
That said, the JSP and Servlet code fragments in this guess paper are short enough to reproduce from memory, and the June 2025 paper did ask for a JSP temperature conversion program. Keep the small snippets, drop the long ones.
How the MCS-220 Guess Paper Was Built From Previous Year Papers
The 12 questions were selected by tabulating every MCS-220 topic against five years of Term End papers plus the December 2025 sitting, then promoting topics that either repeat often or have gone unasked long enough to be due. This is topic frequency work, not guesswork dressed up as prediction.
Take the officially published June 2025 MCS-220 paper as a check on the method. Its compulsory Question 1 asked about J2EE with a diagram, servlet significance, session against cookie, a JSP program, Struts interceptors, Spring Boot against Spring MVC, Inversion of Control and custom CSS. Seven of those eight sub-parts map directly onto questions in this file. That correspondence is verifiable, and you can read the paper yourself on the university website.
The optional questions in that session ran through design patterns, Hibernate annotation configuration, message digest, ORM benefits, Spring Boot microservices, lazy loading, the four security vulnerabilities and role based authentication. Our Q5, Q8, Q9, Q10 and Q11 sit squarely on that ground.
We also record what is not worth your time. Rare single appearance items such as ValueStack and OGNL detail, servlet collaboration and exhaustive Hibernate XML syntax have been left out on purpose, because annotation based configuration is what recent MCS-220 papers actually test. If you want to run the same check yourself, start with our IGNOU Solved Guess Paper library and compare across sessions.
MCS-220 Exam Pattern and Marks Distribution From the Official Paper
The MCS-220 Term End Examination runs for 3 hours and carries a maximum of 100 marks, with Question 1 compulsory at 8 sub-parts of 5 marks each and any three of Questions 2 to 5 to be attempted at 20 marks each. These figures are printed on the official June 2025 question paper, not inferred.
| Question | Status | Structure | Marks | Suggested time |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Question 1 | Compulsory | 8 sub-parts of 5 marks each | 40 | 70 minutes |
| Question 2 | Choice of three from four | Usually 10 plus 10 | 20 | 35 minutes |
| Question 3 | Choice of three from four | Usually 10 plus 10 | 20 | 35 minutes |
| Question 4 | Choice of three from four | Usually 10 plus 10 | 20 | 35 minutes |
| Question 5 | Choice of three from four | Usually 10 plus 10 | 20 | Reserve or attempt |
Two practical consequences follow. First, the compulsory Question 1 is worth more than any two optional questions combined, so a candidate who prepares only long answers is exposed. Second, since you attempt three of four optional questions, covering ten to twelve strong topics is enough to walk out with a comfortable score.
Word discipline matters as much as content in MCS-220. Aim for roughly 450 words on a 20 mark answer, 250 on a 10 mark part and 150 on a 5 mark sub-part, and the three hours will hold comfortably.
Who Should Order the MCS-220 Guess Paper With Answers
This file suits MCA_NEW learners in the last three weeks before the MCS-220 paper who have read the blocks at least once and now need answers in exam ready shape. It is a revision and answer writing tool, not a replacement for the Self Learning Material.
It fits you well if you are a working professional with limited evening study time, if English is not your first language of study and the official MCS-220 blocks read heavily, if you are reappearing after a backlog in Web Technologies, or if you can recall concepts but freeze when asked to structure a 20 mark answer under time pressure.
It fits you poorly if you have not opened the MCS-220 material at all. Twelve questions cannot substitute for fourteen units of reading, and we would rather say so than take an order that will not help. Learners who are also sitting other Semester II papers often pick up the wider MCA guess paper set covering courses which include Master of Computer Applications (MCA_NEW) subjects such as MCS-218, MCS-219 and MCS-221 alongside this one.
Ten Day Revision Plan Using the MCS-220 Guess Paper
Ten focused days are enough to cover all 12 MCS-220 answers twice, provided you write rather than only read. The plan below assumes about two and a half hours a day and follows the block order of the syllabus.
| Day | Focus | Questions | Task for the day |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Block 1 foundations | Q1 | Read the J2EE answer, then redraw the four tier block diagram from memory |
| 2 | Servlets | Q2 | Write the full servlet life cycle answer by hand and time yourself at 25 minutes |
| 3 | JSP | Q3 | Memorise the three life cycle methods and any five implicit objects with type and scope |
| 4 | Session management | Q4 | Reproduce the HttpSession against Cookies table without looking, then check |
| 5 | Design patterns | Q5 | Learn the four Singleton implementation rules and the repository placement argument |
| 6 | Spring core | Q6 | Practise IoC, DI and AOP as three separate 150 word blocks that can be combined |
| 7 | Spring Boot | Q7 | Fix the five Spring Boot components and the six row comparison table in memory |
| 8 | Hibernate and ORM | Q8 and Q9 | Write the four lifecycle states, then the four mapping annotations with examples |
| 9 | Web security | Q10 and Q11 | Learn all five vulnerabilities plus the Spring Security component list |
| 10 | Compulsory question drill | Q12 and revision | Attempt eight short answers of 150 words each in a single 70 minute sitting |
Day 10 is the one most learners skip and the one that decides results. Question 1 of MCS-220 is worth 40 marks and is answered while you are freshest, so rehearsing eight short answers back to back builds exactly the stamina that sitting demands.

MCS-220 Frequently Asked Questions
The eight questions below are the ones the MCS-220 desk is actually asked most often on WhatsApp, covering validity across sessions, question count, textbook sourcing and the lab file confusion.
Is the MCS-220 guess paper valid for both June 2026 and December 2026 exams?
Yes. The MCS-220 file has been prepared for both 2026 Term End sittings, because IGNOU sets the June and December papers from the same four block syllabus of Web Technologies. Topic frequency across sessions is stable, and the twelve questions cover every block. Should the university revise the MCS-220 course structure before December 2026, we update the file and reissue it to existing buyers at no extra charge.
How many questions does the MCS 220 Solved Guess Paper contain in total?
Twelve questions across 23 pages, carrying roughly 240 marks of written answers. Five of those twelve are published openly on this page as samples, which leaves seven that reach you only in the paid file. The distribution spans all four MCS-220 blocks, with four questions from Block 1, three from Block 2, two from Block 3, two from Block 4 and one combined short note bank.
Are the MCS-220 answers written from the official IGNOU textbook?
Yes. Every answer in the MCS-220 file opens with a definition taken from the IGNOU Web Technologies Self Learning Material, then develops the numbered points and tables the book uses. We do this because IGNOU evaluators mark against the prescribed material rather than against outside sources, so textbook phrasing consistently scores better than paraphrased explanations pulled from developer blogs.
Does MCS-220 have a practical file or lab record to submit?
No. MCS-220 Web Technologies is a 4 credit theory course with no practical file attached to it. The laboratory work for this area is assessed separately under MCSL-222 OOAD and Web Technologies Lab, a 2 credit practical course in the same Semester II. So this guess paper covers your theory examination only, and your lab record is prepared and submitted under the MCSL-222 code.
What is the MCS-220 exam pattern and how many questions must I attempt?
The MCS-220 paper runs three hours for 100 marks. Question 1 is compulsory and carries eight sub-parts of five marks each, totalling 40 marks. From the remaining Questions 2 to 5 you attempt any three, each worth 20 marks and usually split as ten plus ten. This means preparing ten to twelve strong topics gives you enough choice to score comfortably.
Can this MCS-220 guess paper alone help me pass Web Technologies?
It helps considerably if you have already read the blocks once, and very little if you have not. Twelve solved questions give you answer structure, textbook phrasing and topic priority for MCS-220, but they cannot replace fourteen units of reading. Learners who combine one full pass of the material with this file and honest handwritten practice report the strongest results.
How quickly is the MCS-220 solved file delivered after payment?
Delivery is usually within a few minutes of payment confirmation on WhatsApp 9899436384, since the MCS-220 file is sent as a ready PDF rather than printed and posted. During peak weeks just before the Term End Examination the desk handles high volume, so allow a little longer in those periods. You can open and revise the file on a phone immediately.
Is the MCS-220 guess paper available in Hindi as well as English?
The MCS-220 solved file is currently written in English only, matching the medium most MCA_NEW learners choose for Web Technologies. Technical terminology in this subject, covering Servlets, JSP, Spring and Hibernate, remains in English even in Hindi medium answer scripts. Hindi medium candidates can therefore still use the file for structure and terminology while writing explanations in their own language.
