Gandaki Pradesh 4th Level - Kharidar Exam Question 2080

Are you a geology student gearing up for your 2080 exams? Feeling overwhelmed by the vastness of the subject? Worry not, future geologists! This guide unveils crucial questions across various geology domains, equipping you for exam success.

In this examination, the questions will be asked from three areas: fundamental geology, structural geology, and crystallography with mineralogy. Each section carries a specific weightage, with fundamental geology constituting 40 marks, structural geology 30 marks, and crystallography and mineralogy also allocated 30 marks. This division ensures a comprehensive evaluation across different aspects of geology, facilitating a thorough understanding and assessment of the student's knowledge and proficiency in the subject.
