NATA 2021 Exam Analysis Phase 1

According to the students who appeared for the entrance examination, the paper was of moderate difficulty. Section A had questions on general aptitude, decision making and general knowledge while Section B had questions based on images and figures. Most of the students found Section B more difficult than Section A, since the students had to solve each question in under 30 seconds. The given image had to be memorized within 30 sections and the question had to be answered, which the candidates found difficult. Comparitively, Section A was easier as it had questions that tested the aptitude of the students.
