Though overall , not bad...still sectional issues...
Surprisingly, i did better in afternoon session ....but serious serious concentration issues ..

Couple of questions :
1) when we say we need to clear sectional cut offs, is it session wise as well, or do they consider composite sectionals ?

2) any tips to survive till last minute ? i was lucky to survive d afternoon session..

Thanks.....

Considerable performance dip in afternoons. Used to sleeping in the afternoon .
Would rather prefer a 5 hr exam from 9am -2 pm with a half an hour break.
Worried about entering the test area in the morning. 7500 ppl are giving the exam. I wonder why the exam wasn't arranged in all metros. Foolish.

As far as the questions are concerned, I gave official mock right at the end. Lots of questions aren't clear. In the sense, we have to make assumptions, which would vary from person to person. They seem to be playing on words.
Am really worried about Ethics.

Don't worry about 70%. There is 'curving', plus I believe one can clear even after failing 2-3 sections.

Here are my results.

Morning Afternoon
