Group 4 Question Paper Overall Analysis
In General Studies, out of 75 questions nearly 10 questions are directly related to current affairs
The aptitude questions are very time consuming this time. It should be one of the reason for those who can not able to manage their time.
Also the Aptitude section is little tough, only those who practiced well can attempt all those in time.
In aptitude 18 above is a good score.
In General Studies 65 and above can be said to be a good score. (Out of 100 questions)
This time also the General Tamil is tough when compared with General English.
In General Tamil 80+ is a good Score.
For General English 85+ is a Good Score.
So, 150+ can be said to be a Very Good Score.
The expected safe score is 153+
