TS ICET 2025 Day 1 Exam Analysis
The TS ICET 2025 exam was on first day was reported to be easy to moderate in terms of difficulty level. Among the sections, candidates found the Mathematical Ability portion to be the most challenging, followed by the Communication Ability section. The section wise difficulty level was similar across both the shifts of the exam day. Candidates found the Analytical Ability section to be the easiest, yet the Data Sufficiency questions were time consuming. Certain parts of the TG ICET Analytical Ability section were tricky and time-consuming.
Arrangement-based questions, especially the two circular and one linear seating problems, required attentive understanding. These questions were prone to errors if solved in a hurry. Candidates found the coding-decoding questions to be relatively easier and focused mainly on letter patterns.
Two direction sense questions were straightforward. Candidates found the blood relations question lengthy, requiring more time just to understand the relationships. Some candidates reported Data Sufficiency section to be time consuming with some questions consuming over five minutes. Several test takers also pointed out issues with the exam's user interface.
Candidates who attempted over 140 questions with accuracy are expected to score well in the TG ICET 2025 exam. Solving previous years' questions papers and good time management while solving the questions had helped candidates to give a good attempt at TS ICET.
In the Telangana ICET exam, the Mathematical Ability section is usually considered the toughest among all three sections. This section typically includes the questions that are not only conceptually challenging but are time consuming. With TS ICET exam being a time sensitive exam having less than 1 minute for each question, solving Mathematical Ability section becomes difficult. The time management typically raises the difficulty bar for the Mathematical Ability section.
The difficulty level of a section can also vary for individuals based on their preparation and conceptual understanding of a concept. A candidate may find Communication Ability to be difficult, if he/she doesn't have a good hold on the language.
TG ICET normalisation formula takes into account the average scores and standard deviations of each shift and compares them with the overall values across all sessions. TSICET normalisation formula also considers the average marks of the top 0.1 per cent of candidates from all shifts individually and combined. Using these values, a normalised score is calculated after adjusting the raw marks of each candidate.
TS ICET normalisation process ensures that a candidate who took the exam in a difficult exam shift is not disadvantaged while being evaluated.
TS ICET rank based on marks may change year to year depending on several factors. These factors include the number of candidates who took the exam, number of qualified candidates, difficulty standards of the TS ICET exam and more. For instance in the past session, TS ICET 2022 the rank 1 holder secured 170+ marks, whereas, in TS ICET 2021, the top 1 rank holder secured 155+ marks. Candidates securing 150+ marks can expect their rank to be within the top 20. TSCHE releases the TS ICET rankers list for top 20 rank holders along with the results.
