Hi Friends, it is a humble request to all those who have written exams for both sets—Set 1 and Set 2—to please provide us with a few pointers and, if possible, sample questions that have been appearing in exams year after year. It would be greatly appreciated if we could identify the questions of high frequency that are expected in both sets—Set 1 and Set 2.
Thanks in anticipation.
Regards,

Dear All, PFA attached question papers of December 2011 and June 2012, hope it will be useful for all ISTD ians. Regards Dinakaran John 9941593617

Hey Dinakaran, thanks a lot for sharing the papers. I hope you performed well in them. Did you go through previous years' question papers? If yes, did you find any similarity in the questions, with them being asked by tweaking them a little?
Would it be sufficient if we just prepare for the questions from these question papers along with the questions from the assignments? A reply to this question would be greatly helpful as the course is vast, and it's challenging to complete all the books while you are working.
Furthermore, I've seen that the papers are for 80 marks. I presume that the remaining 20 marks will be for the written assignments we've submitted. How many marks are we supposed to score (separately from the 20 and 80 marks) in order to clear the diploma with distinction?
A response would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Sharad
PS: Others who have written the papers, please share your valuable suggestions, feedback, and ideas to help us score well in the upcoming exams.

Mainly focus on reading the questions in the response sheet as most questions are derived from there. Questions may be presented in various forms, but they often relate back to the same content. From an examination perspective, papers V, VI, VII, and VIII are generally easier compared to papers I, II, III, and IV. Some questions are commonly repeated, such as the Needs Theory discussed by multiple OB experts, on-the-job training, off-the-job training, the training process, steps in implementing training, and evaluation of training concepts by experts.
The exams should be more manageable for you, considering your past academic sessions. Take note of headings, subheadings, and try to illustrate them with sketches and diagrams rather than presenting them in paragraph form. This is my perspective on ISTD Examinations.
Note: You can search for video classes on specific topics on YouTube, which can be a more engaging and easier way to learn.
I hope the above discussion proves helpful for your exams. If you have any further queries, please feel free to discuss.

Thanks... But, tell me frankly, how much time and preparation is required for preparing for the 8 papers? I'm planning to write all 8 papers in December 2012; I need to plan and study accordingly.
Preparation for Case Studies
How and where did you prepare for the case studies? Sorry, I am asking you too many questions, but it's just that I'm quite adamant about writing all the papers in one attempt this December. So, I'm trying to gather as much information as I can.
