IPU CET 2017 Exam Analysis

IP University, Delhi conducted its Common Entrance Test, 2017 for admission to its various programmes in Law on May 6, 2017 from 10.30 am to 1.00 pm..

The paper comprised 150 questions to be attempted in 150 minutes. Each question had four marks and each wrong attempt attracted a penalty of one mark. There was no penalty for un-attempted questions. The paper had four sections – Logical Reasoning, English, General Knowledge, and Legal Aptitude.

The pattern of the paper remained unchanged. However, the level of difficulty of the individual sections fluctuated a bit. The General knowledge section became difficult due to the predominance of static GK questions. The Legal Aptitude section witnessed some change as more focus was on legal reasoning in comparison to past year where more focus was given on the knowledge part. Overall, this year's paper was slightly easy than that of the last year

The Logical Reasoning section with 38 questions was easy. However, the section was dominated by Analytical Reasoning section. The questions were mostly from arrangement, coding-decoding, cubes, change of symbols, and numeral analogies. There were very few questions from logical reasoning.  An attempt of 32-34 will be considered a good attempt in this section.

English

The students reported the English section to be very easy. It had 38 questions.. The questions were primarily direct in nature. This section was easy and an attempt of 32-36 will be considered to be good.

General Knowledge

The General knowledge section was a mixture of both Static GK and Current Affairs and like last year more focus was on static Gk, which made it slightly difficult for the students to answer the same. The overall difficulty level of the Static GK questions can be said to be moderate-difficult. Questions from Current Affairs were quite easy and direct.

Legal Aptitude

Unlike last year, most of the questions were based on legal reasoning and very few on knowledge based. The questions were pretty straight and any student, who has read the LST-Legal Module, would find them to be sitters.

Overall, the difficulty level of the paper can be said to be a moderate one, where an attempt of 116-126 can be considered a good one, with an overall accuracy of 90%.

We hope that this journey culminates into a success for all of you.
