Pick one of each pair

The first topic only comes up as the OR choice against the second, so one of the two is enough.

Doing every question in the order once, at exam pace, takes about 29 h 6 m. Averages over past papers, not promises.

Not on the ladder asked only under the older CBCS syllabus, so they add nothing to a current paper
