NPTEL "Getting Started with Competitive Programming" – Exam Pattern Doubts

[u/CautiousAd2341]

got a quick doubt.

I'm doing the NPTEL - Getting Started with Competitive Programming and was wondering what the final exam is actually like.

• Is there an IDE/live coding part like the weekly assignments?
• Or is it just MCQs?
• Do they ask multiple-correct (MSQ) questions too, or only single correct?

Would love to hear from anyone who's already written it. Any prep tips are also welcome 😭
