UPSC Civil Services Prelims 2015 : Exam Analysis of Paper - 2
The paper was much easier than last year, especially in terms of reading comprehension questions. There were quite a few single question Reading Comprehension passages that were easy. Also, there were no decision making questions, which have traditionally been tough to crack. Quantitative Aptitude questions and Reasoning questions in this year’s paper were easier than last year’s questions from these areas. There was one incorrect question under Set Theory. Apart from that there were no real hurdles in the paper. Detailed Break-up of Math and Reasoning QuestionsTopics |
