The Reasoning and English sections ranged between moderate to difficult. The Quant section was both time-consuming and challenging, whereas the one on GA was less intense.

The following novel features were observed in the exam this year:

  1. A changed format of Puzzle questions (Queue+10 Persons+Symbols+QBR, QBR+Symbols+Ages);
  2. New types of Coding-Decoding and Input-Output questions;
  3. FIBs (2 blanks) – A pair of suitable words should be picked from 6 words given in two columns;
  4. A sentence marked A, B, C, D, E was given where E was fixed. The test-taker had to re-arrange A, B, C, D to form another coherent sentence.
  5. The presentation of Cloze test paragraph in the English section was entirely offbeat – a paragraph with 5 questions pertaining to - fill in the blanks, phrase in bold replacement, word in bold etc.. were given.

Sentence Rearrangement: A grammatically meaningful sentence labelled A, B, C, D, E was given in which part E was kept static, and the test-taker had to re-arrange the first four parts in a different sequence to form another logical and coherent sentence.

FIB (2 blanks) – Each sentence with two blanks had to be filled with a pair of words to be picked from the 6 choices given in two columns

Inappropriate usage - A sentence, with one word in bold, followed by 5 sentences framed from that word, in the choices, was given. That sentence was to be marked in which the meaning of this word differed from the one given in the main sentence.

Cloze Test - The Cloze test paragraph with its 5 questions, was very unconventional in its presentation The questions were not consistent with those characteristic of a cloze test, and included a multitude of question types namely, fill in the blanks, phrase in bold replacement, word in bold etc. With in the same set.
