Overall

Overall, the exam was easy to moderate. A good number of attempts
in the exam were 150 – 170.
 
Overall Recommendation:

  • Focus on
    accuracy    . Because the paper is
    easy to moderate, you may be able to do more questions than normal.
    However, it is more important to get more of them right. In GA, CK/
    Marketing and English, only guess if you are at least 50% sure of the
    answer. Avoid wild guesses. In DI and Reasoning, double check your
    solutions and be extremely vigilant. Simply by avoiding silly mistakes,
    you can push your accuracy in these 2 sections above 90%

    score well. Good luck
