| Sorry, it seems you r wrong. The question is all about the percent of marks' fall to be COMPARED to previous exams. Percentage increase in marks in various periodical exams compared to the previous exams are: For Jun 01 = 1.39%. For Aug 01 = 1.37%. For Oct 01 = 4.05%. For Dec 01 = 3.90%. For Feb 02 = 1.25%. So it is very clear that the percentage falls from 4.05 in oct to 3.90 in dec. so dec 01 is the right answer. do not just look at the gradual increase in graph. check the question carefully. it is the usual trap students fall. |

| Dear gopal, every question may not be tricky... Observe the question carefully.... The question is not about fall of 'percentage increase'JUST about fall of 'Percentage'. So the author is correct. Please observe the question again. It's straight and simple. No trap. | |
