English Language

The table below shows that the topics of Reading comprehension, Para jumble, Fillers carried the highest weightage in both the shifts. However, you cannot afford to miss other topics as significant questions have been asked on other topics as well. The overall difficulty level of this section is easy.

Numerical Ability

Around 20 questions from the Numerical Ability section have largely been asked from 3 topics viz. Data Interpretation, Simplification, and Number Series. The Miscellaneous part had questions from different arithmetic topics such as Time & Work, Boat & Stream, Age, Mensuration, Profit & Loss, Simple Interest, etc. Here, the difficulty level ranges from easy to moderate.

Reasoning

The Reasoning section had questions from different topics in both shifts. Syllogism was asked in the 1st shift but not in the 2nd, whereas Puzzle was asked in the 2nd shift and not in the 1st. Thus, it is crucial for you to prepare all the topics mentioned in the syllabus to get a good score here. The difficulty level remains easy.
