Hey the paper was good, but had 6 sections this year, as opposed to 4 sections with sub-sections last year. Whether the paper will have sectional cutoffs is anybody s guess. I have attempted only 3 or 4 questions in DI, so jus hope i don get a negative score!! just the kind of paper where you come back home after attempting it, and you still have no idea how it went!!

Btw, do instis release the key 4 IIFT?

Hi Puys,

6 sections seems interesteing. Could somebody post some more details? How many questions? Any particular section people felt tough? How was the difficulty level compared to last year?

[vicky1331]

Anyone has any idea how much the cutoff is going to be this year?

Paper was a good one. A number of questions in maths were prom progressions mainly AM GM. DI was too calculation intensive. Worse part of the calculations were one needed to be correct to 2 or 3rd dec places in some questions. English was good too. Passages were of medium length. LR was the best of the lot!!

Section topic no. of qs. marks/qs

1 QA 27 .7
2 DI 26 .8
3 RC 12 .8
4 VA 23 .7
5 GK 30 .3
6 LR 32 .8



I could attempt 4 each in qa, di n rc. hope a +ve score there at least.
qa n di was on the tougher side.

Hi..

As compared to last year the paper was little tough..Except LR&DI all sections were on higher side of difficulty.Passage was lengthy and questions are all too long..
Section-1(LR)---Easy
Section2-Math--Tough(Considering so many que cmng 4m progressions)
Section3-DI-Lot Easy comapred to last year..
Section4-Difficult(Passage was lengthy and questions are all too long..)
Section5-Vocab(I cann't differntiate between diff and easy):innocent:
section6-Easy(Caompared to last year)

I think cutoff this year will be little lower than last year.

Regards
Rajesh
