English
Grammar · Vocabulary · Comprehension
50 marks. The English section is usage-driven and structurally analytical — not literature-based. It evaluates contextual precision, lexical competence, and the ability to detect errors under time pressure. Nearly 61% of the paper concentrates in three domains: Vocabulary, Reading Comprehension, and Sentence Correction.
