Here is a closer look at how each section played out in AILET 2026:
The English Language section had six reading comprehension passages, the same count as last year. The section was passage-heavy and tested reading speed and comprehension more than anything else.

The GK section carried 30 questions, and Current Affairs formed the bulk of it at 21 questions, with static GK making up the remaining 9. This meant that candidates who stayed on top of recent national and international events had a clear edge over those who relied solely on static GK preparation.
