Shiksha visited a SET test centre to know the SET exam 2025 students’ reactions and reviews. According to the students we spoke to, the SET question paper was easy to moderate in terms of the difficulty level, and students were able to complete the exam in the given time. Most of the students found the QA section difficult. Quantitative Aptitude questions were moderate and GK was easy in the SET exam 2025. Read below and watch the video for students’ reactions and reviews of the SET 2025 exam (test 02).

Q:   What is the marking scheme of SET test?
A:
SET has a total of 60 questions. The General English Quantitative Aptitude and General Awareness sections carry 16 questions and the Analytical and Logical Reasoning section carries 12 questions. For each correct attempt, one mark is awarded and one mark is deducted for an incorrect attempt. There is no deduction of marks for unanswered questions. Therefore, the total marks of SET is 60. The sectional marking scheme for SET is given below: 1. General English 16 2. Analytical and Logical Reasoning: 12 3. Quantitative Ability: 16 4. General Knowledge: 16 Candidates must choose the questions to solve very carefully and smartly as they will not be awarded marks for incorrect answers. If they are not sure of the correct answer, they should leave the question instead of taking a chance.
Q:   Which section of the SET exam has the least weightage?
A:

Three out of the four sections of the SET exam namely, General English, Quantitative Aptitude and General Knowledge, have equal weightage. Each question carries one mark for correct attempt. There is neither a negative marking for incorrectly marked answers nor there is marks deduction for unanswered question. The last section of the SET exam, i.e. Analytical and Logical Reasoning carries the least weightage. There are only 12 questions in this section which carry one mark each. The marking scheme of all the four sections is the same. Given below is the sectional weightage of SET exam.

  1. General English: 16 questions, 16 marks
  2. General Knowledge: 16 questions, 16 marks
  3. Quantitative Aptitude: 16 questions, 16 marks
  4. Analytical and Logical Reasoning: 12 questions, 12 marks

One should prepare well for all the sections of the SET exam. If you will score equally well in every section, only then will your overall score will be good. Also, many colleges consider sectional scores as well for admission shortlist so it is important to perform equally well in all sections of SET.

Q:   Is there negative marking in the SET exam?
A:

No, SET exam does not have negative marking. Each question in SET exam carries one mark and if answer is incorrect, no marks will be awarded for that question.

Anshul: The overall difficulty level of the SET exam was moderate. Quantitative Aptitude was easy to moderate. General English and GK sections were easy. LR was the easiest as usual. There were questions on Averages, Percentages and Ratios mainly inthe  Quant section. This was my first attempt, as I also appeared for IPMAT Rohtak.

Manish: The difficulty level of the test 02 SET was easy to moderate. I attempted all the questions of the SET question paper. For me, the easiest section was LR and the toughest was QA. No particular topic dominated the section. All topics were evenly distributed. To prepare for the SET exam, my strategy was to cover the complete SET exam syllabus

Bhavishya: The SET exam 2025 was easy and was at par with the SET syllabus. According to me, the QA section was the most difficult. There were no surprise questions. I referred to the previous years’ question papers to practice for my SET exam. It was easier as compared to the previous years’ SET question papers.

Ishaant: The paper was easy. I attempted all 60 questions as there was no negative marking. For me, the Quant section was the toughest, GK was moderate, and the easiest was Logical Reasoning. The exam pattern was the same as the SET mock tests. My SET preparation strategy was to attempt the mock tests. 

Q:   How many sections does the SET BBA exam have?
A:

SET question paper is divided into 4 sections, I. e, Analytical and Logical Reasoning, General English Quantitative Aptitude and General Awareness. All the sections carry MCQ questions and each question carries one mark. There is no negative marking. Given below is the number of questions in each section:

  • General English- 16
  • Quantitative Aptitude- 16
  • General Knowledge- 16
  • Analytical and Logical Reasoning- 12 

Sameer: I would say that the SET exam test 02 was easy to moderate. The QA section was lengthy, according to me, and it was also the toughest. The SET exam was at par with the SET mock tests and previous years’ question papers. But, I think the General English paper had different types of questions as compared to previous years. There were no questions on word meanings, synonyms and antonyms.
