C.U. ENGLISH HONOURS QUESTION PAPERS- PART-I
SECOND PAPER

One of the most important year for English Honours Students. 
The syllabus of English Honours was changed in 2010. And in the subsequent years i.e. 2011 and 2012, the Question Paper format was revised twice to make it tougher for the students. Now this format makes it impossible to leave any sections aside. A student would have to study thoroughly covering the entire syllabus in order to succeed. 

Best of Luck for you all. 

It is the first time on the internet you are going to find all the years QP’s for English Honours.
