SNAP 2020 Student Reactions and Reviews
Pooja: " I think the paper was quite easy this time. I think English was easy, LR was also easy and so was Quants. i was able to do 44 questions easily. English had basic grammar in terms of idiom usage and general vocabulary. Logical Reasoning had sequence and series and seating arrangements questions. In Quant, there was one question of logarithm and few questions of exponents and power. The new exam pattern was favourable and the time duration was good enough."

Sachin: "Most of the questions were easy to moderate. Per section there were about 4-5 were difficult, rest were moderate to easy. Reading Comprehension was not there, which is a surprise as every time they have Reading Comprehension. I was able to attempt 40-41 questions. I will not go for second attempt in January as I have performed pretty well in the mocks and here too, so I don’t think one week will make any difference to the score. I am satisfied."
Anubhav: "The SNAP question paper was quite easy but the time was very limited and I attempted only half of the questions. I have another attempt on January 6 so I’ll prepare better for it."
Vivek: "For me the difficulty level of SNAP 2020 was easy. It was easier than the mockS but that is the area of concern as SNAP cut off may go high. I didn't get much time to solve Quant but DILR was easy. The new exam pattern was fine."
Garima: "I think the paper was quite easy. There were no Reading Comprehension questions. In English there were questions on Grammar. In LR there was one circular question on seating arrangement and there were four to five missing number question and there was one time and work question. I think the overall difficulty level was medium. I think one hour was less as in two hours you can go back and review the question but this time in one hour there was no time to do that. I attempted 35 questions with 90 per cent accuracy."

SNAP candidates are not required to apply separately for all SIU campuses. They can select colleges in the SNAP application form. However, they need to fill the PI-shortlist form separately for whichever colleges they get shortlisted.

Between SNAP and NMAT, the former is considered easier in terms of difficulty level of the questions. However, SNAP is of 60 minutes in which candidates have to address 60 question. This makes SNAP more challenging than NMAT which is a test of longer duration (2 hours having 108 questions).

Usually it is recommended that Arun Sharma series (Verbal, Quant, DI), R.S. Aggarwal's Reasoning/Quant books, and Word Power Made Easy, are enough for SNAP preparation. Sample questions papers, mock tests, sectional test series are also important.

Two months may not be enough to prepare for SNAP exam, if you are attempting it for the first time. However, you can try with a very specific and focussed plan. Check SNAP question papers of previous years to know dominant subjects. Study only those thoroughly and practice mock tests side by side.
