Assessment boundary

This is a bounded Foundation Sprint assessment, not a reconstruction of historical DU or Medical admission papers. It carries no claim about historical frequency, topic heatmaps, zero counts or institutional prediction.

Question identity and source boundary

Every item has a permanent LBFL question ID, a topic identifier and an internal NCTB subject/topic alignment reference. These alignment references are curriculum metadata, not page-level textbook citations, historical-paper provenance or an official answer key. Primary page-level NCTB verification remains a separate evidence task.

Instructions: choose one answer for each item. Unanswered items are scored as incorrect so that they enter the repair loop.
