Test Duration
The test duration is for a total time of 2 hours and 50 minutes (170 minutes). PWD/DA candidates withscribe requirements will be allowed an extra hour. All candidates will start the test at the same time.
Candidates are to remain at their seats for the entire duration of the test even if they complete their
test early. The Submit button will be enabled only upon completion of test time.
If for any reason, the candidate has to leave the testing hall, he/she will not be allowed to re-enter the
hall. In such circumstances, the test would be considered incomplete for the candidate.
At no point during the test, the candidate should touch the keyboard. Doing so will lock the terminal. All
answer choices should be made using the mouse.
Test Format
The medium of the test is in English language for all candidates. The test has 100 multiple choicequestions across two sections. The two sections are:
1. Quantitative Ability and Data Interpretation 50
2. Verbal Ability and Logical Reasoning 50
Candidates may attempt any section first. The questions can be answered out of sequence too. And the
candidate can also toggle between sections and attempt questions. An on-screen timer will mark
remaining minutes for the test. Three (3) points will be awarded for each correct answer; one (1) point
will be deducted for each wrong answer. There is no penalty for questions that are left unanswered.
A panel on the right-hand side will display the status of your questions in four colours that indicate the following:
Green – Answered questions
Red - Unanswered questions
White - Questions not viewed
Violet - Marked for review
