solve the real-life problems, which are essential for the development of
state and society. The present study examines the question papers of
M.A English at Punjab University at cognitive level. Bloom’s
taxonomy is used as a tool for the analysis. Triangulation method was
followed to enhance the reliability of results. The difficulty level of each
question was determined from the keywords found in the
questions. Within an annual system of Pakistan, evaluation is
conducted in two parts (part1 and part 2). The population of this study
questions in the annual examination papers and sampling is the
questions in Punjab university MA English papers (part 1 and part 2).
The main objective of this research is to reveal: which level of Bloom’s
taxonomy is more frequent in the Punjab University’s MA English
questions papers. The aim of this study highlights how much
examiners are trained to assess learner’s knowledge, attitude, and
skills. This study is significant for the teachers, students, examiners,
educationists, and the whole education system. The findings indicate
that examiners focused on the lower order thinking skills questions
rather than higher-order cognitive skilled questions. The research
concludes the current relationship between a student’s performance
and learning outcomes.
