In indirect speech, questions are changed to statements without any question mark. If the question starts with a WH-word, it remains as is. If it is a Yes/No question, we use if or whether.

For example:

Direct: Maya asked, "Where are you going?"

Indirect: Maya asked where I was going.

Direct: Pinto asked, "Do you like coffee?"

Indirect: Pinto asked if I liked coffee.

For the APEdCET entrance test, there is no specific qualifying score for the General English section; instead, candidates must achieve a minimum aggregate qualifying score of 25% (which rounds to 38 marks for the general category) of the total marks in the entire exam to be ranked. Candidates from Scheduled Caste (SC) and Scheduled Tribe (ST) communities do not need to meet this minimum aggregate qualifying mark to be ranked.
