There are three different sections/papers in CDSE viz English, General Knowledge, Elementary Mathematics. CDSE is conducted by UPSC twice every year. When comparing CDS 2 2012 from last CDS 1 2012, it was easier than last time, specially in English and Maths.

English: Paper was quite easier this time, specially the synonyms and antonyms, comprehension passages were quite easier like last time. Overall English was some thing to score high in overall CDSE.

GK: Like always GK remains the same but it was less difficult alike last time, more general questions based on current affairs and surprisingly from defence sectors. Not much of political questions neither more history which made the whole paper little easier this time. But overall it was difficult so nothing new in it.

Maths: Easy like always, good chance to score more through Maths. This time more questions were from trigonometry and arithmetic. Overall Maths was easy and scoring.

Overall the paper was moderate and cut off may go up to ~~180~~ 160Marks for AFA and ~~160-170~~ 145 marks for IMA, OTA, NA. ~~Lets wait~~ for the CDS 2 2012 answers key to come up from The Cavalier Coaching Institute for CDS-2 answer sheet 2012 and CDS 2 2012 cut off .

Recently I have faced some questions from a aspirant who has a problem of colour-blindness, he was asking me the chances of his getting into armed forces without any problem. Though the problem of colour blindness is a serious, it may post a rejection during medicals. Some of the candidates are not aware of this problem and they may have colour blindness which they have never felt because they have never faced any problem in their normal life.

Here we are going to talk about what colour blindness is and its effects in medical examination after SSB interview:

Q1: What is colour blindness?

A : It is the inability to differentiate between certain colours, due to absence of colour sensitive pigments in the cone cell of the retina.

Q2 : How can I check the colour blindness?

A : If you face the problem in differentiating certain colours, then you should consult an ophthalmologist. Though I am posting some tests below to check the colour blindness, you can go through it and post the results in comment box below. I am sure majority of you will not face any problem.
