Bhavya: The overall SET question paper was moderate, not very tough. The Quant section was average. Someone who has prepared well, they would have cracked the section easily. The LR and General English sections section were very easy. The GK section was quite tough for me as I was not very well prepared for this section. I am expecting a score above 40. 

Jigyasa: The overall difficulty level was moderate. The LR and General English sections were quite easy. The QA and GK were a little difficult. I was able to manage to answer all the questions within the time limit. 

Udyani: The SET exam 2022 was easy. The General Awareness section should have been prepared well. The question paper was based on the syllabus of Class 10 and Class 12.
