Rahul Sharma shared that AIBE 17 was his first attempt, and the question paper was easy. He also added that BCI should remove Bare Acts from AIBE as most questions are asked directly from it, and the paper should rather be based on Legal Theory, which is essential for practising law. He also shared that the exam centre not near to his location, so he had to travel a long distance. 

On the other hand, Shyambhavi who attempted AIBE for the first time, shared that the question paper was easy.
