The General Knowledge (GK) section for XAT 2025 along with the other three, is crucial for both the XAT online test and the XLRI admission process. After completing Part-1 of the XAT exam, there is a 5-minute break before starting Part-2, which contains the GK section. The entire exam, including GK, must be completed within the 3 hours and 30 minutes allotted. While a separate score is given for the GK section, it does not affect the percentile calculation.
