The section was dominated by sentence correction, reading comprehension and vocabulary based questions.  Vocabulary based questions, including Cloze test, were easy and should have been done in less time. The questions based on Figures of speech were a little tricky and included questions on Oxymoron, Pun, and Metaphor etc. The sentence correction based questions were based on the basics of grammar and hence were easy to deal with. The reading comprehensions were a little tricky but questions based on then were direct and easy to solve.
The attempt of 26-28 questions would have been considered good.
Section II: - General Knowledge
