  1. 1
    what are the different Http methods you know of?
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleHTTP verbs REST ke tools. Methods HTTP ke hain, REST unhe convention se use karta hai.

    GET read cacheable. POST create payload. PUT replace. PATCH patch. DELETE remove.

    GET exists bina REST ke bhi — browser address bar.

    HTTP verbs + status REST ki zabaan. GET read, POST create, PUT replace, PATCH partial, DELETE remove. GET typically no body.

    Status: 200 OK, 201 created, 202 accepted (Celery task), 400 bad input, 401 no/bad token, 403 role nahi, 404 missing, 409 conflict (double book), 500 server.

    AJAX/fetch page reload nahi. SPA poori isi pe. Postman se bina Vue ke API prove karo — examiner pasand.

    Example

    GET /api/venues
POST /api/venues
PUT /api/venues/1
DELETE /api/venues/1

    Project example: resources.py methods list. Postman 4-5 calls.

    Viva tipGET typically no body (cacheable). POST/PUT/PATCH haan payload. PUT idempotent, POST nahi.

    Do not try to be oversmart. We will spend the first 20 minutes understanding your project, then ask you for code changes in both the backend and frontend. While it will be a very basic question, we will only decide on it after analyzing your code and understanding to ensure you cannot make changes in your code.

    That question will decide whether you pass the Level 1 viva or not.
    Times asked 1
    Official solution

    SimpleLevel = viva difficulty band. Level 1 usually demo + basics; higher pe live coding + deeper theory.

    Viva tipJo level assign hai uske hisaab se demo + theory ready rakho.

Advice: Do Not try Be Oversmart in front of examiners , These examiners have taken 300+ vivas , many of them taken 800+ vivas & these examiners also use AI to generate , so they understand which code is AI generated & which one is manually written. many of these examiners have multiple hatricks of taking vickets of players like you in a single day. Some of these examiners take 17-18 vivas in a single day. Many stduents are banned for 1 term , many are repeating course + project both for cheating / plagrism / malpractice. Accept your mistakes , show some professionalism. If you accept your mistake , you will fail only. But if you become arrogrant , you will be added to malpractice sheet as well.
