Read here what test-takers have to say about the difficulty level of the TS ICET 2021 Afternoon Session of August 19th.

TS ICET Exam Analysis

Telangana State Council of Higher Education (TSCHE) conducted the second session of TS ICET 2021 from 2:30 PM to 5 PM on August 19. The morning or the forenoon session for TS ICET was conducted from 10 PM to 12:30 PM.

As the afternoon shift of the TS ICET 2021 exam is over, Shiksha.com got in touch with a few test-takers to know their experience of the exam. Here is a detailed TS ICET 2021 exam analysis and student reaction after the afternoon session of TS ICET 2021. Identical to the morning session, test takers encountered a bad user interface in the TS ICET 2021, 19 August AN session as well. Several test-takers complained of laggy computer systems that required multiple scrolls to read one question.

As per the test-takers, all the COVID-19 safety guidelines were followed inside the test centre. TSCHE officials were constantly guiding test takers to avoid any kind of interaction even before and after the test. Social distancing measures were in place because the reporting time was set one and a half hours before the commencement time. That extensively helped in avoiding crowds outside and inside the centre.

Identical to the trends, students found Mathematical Ability the toughest section, and Communication Ability as the easiest section. The Analytical Ability section in the TS ICET 2021 AN session was time-consuming yet doable according to some test takers. With a bad UI of CBT, candidates found answering all the questions difficult within 150 minutes. One can expect a 160+ as a good attempt. Some test-takers said they could have answered all the questions within the time if the computer-based test had a better user interface.
