SNAP 2022 Slot 2 followed the same pattern as that of SNAP 2021 and SNAP 2022 slot 1. Much like the previous slot, the paper had 60 questions to be attempted in 60 minutes and was divided into three sections General English, Analytical & Logical Reasoning and Quantitative, Data Interpretation & Data Sufficiency.
The General English Section was easy to moderate in terms of the level of difficulty. It did not have any reading comprehension questions in this slot as well. The Analytical & Logical Reasoning was similar to last year’s and was heavy on analytical reasoning. The Quantitative, Data Interpretation & Data Sufficiency section had a lot of calculations and was difficult compared to slot 1.
Overall, the paper had a moderate level of difficulty and was similar to SNAP 2022 slot 1.
