Thanks to T.I.M.E's O.M.E.T. 917..many questions appeared similar pattern with this O.M.E.T.
I found speed maths easy took only 5 min to solve it. it helped me to attempt all the questions.
LR: pretty easy. LR and QA are my strong areas. never worried about them much.
VA/RC: easy and also tricky. especially those para jumbles. lose one the other also gets lost. In fact this is my weak section with accuracy levels being at 50%.
the cutoff will be high almost 90+

Oxford dictionary says pernicious means destructive. I suppose that's what the answer would be. btw, i too have marked malicious

that's great.All the best to you

My attempts-

Eng- 37
Quant 35
LR- 30-33
OA-102-105

Pffft....If it wasn't for the invigilator's louder-than-life cell keypad tone , i think I would've managed at least 2 more questions in the last few mins...
Let's see what happens now..

yes shackles seemed the most appropriate to me. I don't think any other option came as close as this one.

If you see the above link
both malicious and destructive are given as synonyms.
Since malicious is given before destructive,I think malicious is the ans( JUST KIDDING ).

Hope it's malicious.I just want to clear English cutoff.
