- Neha Kapoor stated, “The LRDI section was balanced. I managed to attempt all sets confidently, but one of the sets was calculation-heavy and slowed me down. Compared to last year, I found it slightly easier.”
- Shirish Bhardwaj mentioned, “The QA section was the toughest for me. While arithmetic questions were manageable, algebra and geometry had some questions that required a lot of thought. I had to skip a couple due to time constraints.”
- Kunal Mehta said, “Slot 2 was similar to Slot 1 in difficulty. I feel that time management was crucial, especially in QA, where some problems had multiple steps. The LRDI section saved the day for me as it felt less intimidating than last year.”
