Contrary to expectations, this section brought about a shift in students' sentiments. While calculations proved somewhat lengthy, they were easy, covering topics like ratio and proportion, percentage, etc. Two sets with a total of 12 questions were presented. Overall an easy section.

The 24 questions in this section, drawn from four passages, leaned more towards the conceptual rather than the contextual. Questions were generally straightforward, with a focus on Critical Reasoning. However, the presence of confusing options added a layer of complexity.

Featuring five passages centered around recent legal developments, this section touched upon subjects like the Data Protection Act, Juvenile Justice, Defamation, and Inheritance. Overall, the section was labeled as "easy." An advisable attempt is within the range of 28-30 questions, resulting in a potential score of 25-26.
