English and Logical Reasoning will have 20% 
weightage each (around 28-32 questions).

Importance of the Updated 
1. Makes You SPyasttetmeartnic – 
 The new exam pattern will help the 
students in understanding their strengths 
and weakness. 
 It also helps in managing time while 
attempting the exam. Managing time 
across the various sections becomes 
critical, especially since comprehension 
based questions will be more time-
consuming so one must plan to spend 
proportional time in each of the sections.

Importance of the Updated Pattern
2. It Saves Time- Students can be time-
efficient only if they are aware of the exam 
pattern. 
 With the revised exam pattern students 
must streamline their preparation and 
prepare effectively.
 Also as mentioned above, while time needs 
to be apportioned for all sections, based on 
individual strength/weakness across the 
various sections the time allotted to each 
individual section must vary in order to 
maximise the overall score.
