Shiksha reported live from Gargi College, New Delhi where total 600 students took the paper. AILET 2019 was a mixed bag for BA LLB (Hons) students. While most students shared that the exam was tough, some felt that it was easier as compared to previous year. However, Legal Aptitude section of the exam was extremely lengthy this year, which made the AILET 2019 paper a race against time for students.  

Section-Wise AILET 2019 Difficulty Level

According to Mohak Aggarwal from Delhi Public School, RK Puram, “This year the exam was more difficult and lengthier as compared to previous years. Last year, Legal Aptitude section was not that lengthy as it was this year. In English, questions were difficult and different from what we had assumed. Maths was of moderate difficulty level. Logical Reasoning section was easy.

Navya Aggarwal, who came all the way from Haldwani to appear for AILET 2019, shared, “I had PCM (Physics, Chemistry, Maths) subjects in Class 12^th but I changed my stream and opted for BA LLB course. This is my first attempt at the AILET exam for BA LLB (Hons) course. When I first saw the paper, I thought that I would be able to crack Maths questions easily but on attempting, I found them a bit difficult. In Logical Reasoning, Critical part was a bit tough but Analytical part was easy. I found some difficulty in attempting the English section of the exam due to high level of vocabulary. Coming to Legal Aptitude, had my legal knowledge been good I would have attempted the section more properly. Also, I could not judge the time inside the examination hall as there was no watch and teachers were outside the room. Due to this, I had to leave some of the Legal Aptitude questions.”

Mudit from DAV Public School, Ashok Vihar felt that AILET 2019 was a hard paper as compared to previous year. He said, “The level of questions in English was really high as compared to last year’s paper. Also, Legal Reasoning section was very lengthy. There were overall 40 pages and time given was very less. GK (General Knowledge) was the saving section and was comparatively easier. Maths was easy as well. In Reasoning, AR (Analytical Reasoning) questions were less in number as compared to CR (Critical Reasoning) questions.”

As per Muskan Sadhvan from St Francis de Sales Senior Secondary School, Janakpuri “I found English easy as there was only one reading comprehension. GK section mainly included current affairs so it was of moderate difficulty level. Legal Aptitude was easy as compared to previous years. Logical Reasoning was of moderate difficulty level. Coming to Maths, if you are good in the subject it was easy, otherwise difficult.”

Niharika from Dayawati Modi Academy, Meerut, said, “Overall, the paper was tough but as compared to last year it was easier. This year, among all the sections, Legal Aptitude section was the most difficult. GK and English sections were moderate. Maths was very easy. I think I will be able to crack the paper.”

Nidhi Nanda from Kamal Public Senior Secondary School shared, “Overall, the AILET 2019 paper was of moderate difficulty level as compared to last year’s paper. But the paper was really lengthy. According to me, LA (Legal Aptitude) was tough.”
