Time management is very much important in IIT JAM. The eduncle test series for IIT JAM Mathematical Statistics helped me a lot in this portion. I am very thankful to the test series I bought from eduncle.

Dear student, you should understand the difference between large scale and small scale map. A large scale map covers a small ground area on large map area. Large scale map shows very small features (like roads, rail tracks, mosque etc.). Option A is incorrect because the area of United States is very large and 8.5"x11" map (small map area) can not be a large scale map because large scale map shows very small features like roads, ponds etc. You can't show all roads of US on 8.5"x11" map. So option 1 is incorrect. Option B is also incorrect. 44"x34" map of Madison will be a large scale map because you can show minute features (like road, rail tracks etc.) of Madison (a small part of USA) on a map with large area (44"x34"). Option C is obviously incorrect because you can't show minute features (characteristics of large scale map) of world on a map with very small area 8'x12'.
