AILET 2025 Analysis

The AILET 2025 exam was a mixed bag in terms of the difficulty level . The English section was fairly easy, and with a little focus and time management, students could have scored well in this section. The Reasoning section was of an easy to moderate level of difficulty, and students could have scored well in critical reasoning questions. This year, the General Knowledge section could be categorised as Moderate as there was an almost equal number of easy and difficult questions.

GK Analysis:

The General Knowledge section of AILET 2024 maintained its reputation for being relatively error-free, distinguishing itself from the CLAT paper this year. The focus was primarily on current affairs, with most questions coming from anticipated and well-covered topics, making it accessible for well-prepared candidates.

In terms of the static GK portion, there was a noticeable shift from the previous years. Unlike earlier papers, which included substantial questions on Economics and Modern History, this year’s paper had several trivia-based questions.

A closer look at the topics reveals that International Relations dominated the paper, with several questions focused on global affairs. However, these were largely easy in difficulty. Additionally, there were questions from other areas, such as Sports, Awards, and Important Days, which ranged from easy to moderate in difficulty.

Out of the 30 questions, the difficulty level was well-distributed: 13 questions were relatively easy, 10 were moderate, and 7 posed a challenge for the average student. For those who were well-prepared, a score of 22-23 marks would be a reasonable target.

In conclusion, AILET 2024's GK section was approachable, with a strong emphasis on current affairs and international relations, and a mix of other general knowledge topics at varying levels of difficulty.

English Language Analysis:

This year too, AILET stayed true to its tradition of keeping the English section dynamic and unpredictable. While all the 50 questions were based on Reading Comprehension as always, a few patterns that were seen in the exam 3-4 years ago staged a comeback.

Last year, all the RC passages were conventional in terms of presentation. This year, two of the six passages were a little different, though these types of passages have appeared earlier in the exam. One was a passage on three different knitting techniques, and it had questions that required the student to compare two of these techniques. The other was a tabular presentation of three book descriptions, with several questions on each book. While some of the questions from these passages were easy to moderate, students who were not familiar with this pattern may have struggled to go back and forth to check each passage repeatedly for details. The other four passages were quite readable.

Overall, with the exception of a few difficult questions, the section was of an easy-moderate difficulty level. A good score in this section would be 40 out of 50.

Reasoning Analysis:

Critical Reasoning:

This section did not have any surprises this year. As usual, the section had a mix of passage-based and statement-based questions. All the major critical reasoning principles such as inference, assumption, conclusion, strengthening and weaking of arguments etc, were covered. Of the 35 questions, around 10 could be considered difficult. The others were easy to moderate. A good score in this section would be around 25.

AILET Analytical Reasoning:

The Analytical Reasoning section in AILET was relatively easier compared to last year. It comprised 13 questions from series and verbal analogies, with 2 questions of moderate difficulty and 11 fairly easy questions. , There were 3 questions based on puzzles, which were manageable and could be solved quickly, especially if candidates utilized the process of elimination. One question on coding and decoding was tricky and can be considered of moderate difficulty. A total of 8 syllogism questions were present, with one particularly challenging question which was more passage-based than statement-based. The remaining syllogism questions were easy to solve.

Overall, candidates could comfortably attempt 18-20 questions within the stipulated 15-minute time frame. A score of 22 or higher would be considered a good performance in this section.

AILET Legal Reasoning:

Over the years, AILET has shifted away from asking direct legal knowledge-based or legal reasoning questions. Instead, the section focuses on Principal-Facts based questions, where a basic understanding of legal principles can be helpful. This year, all the legal reasoning questions were relatively easy and could be answered accurately with minimal effort, often without the need for a second reading.
