Two questions each were asked on idioms/proverbs and figures of speech such as metaphor.
Around 7 questions were from grammar, including prepositions and conjunctions.
Vocabulary questions (4) were direct and easy to eliminate using options.

Overall, it was a scoring and less time-consuming section.
Quantitative Aptitude (16 Questions)
The section was similar to Slot 1 with a slightly different question distribution.
Arithmetic had 5 questions (including topics like percentages and profit-loss), slightly lengthy but not difficult.
Modern Maths had 5 questions including logarithms, permutations & combinations, and probability.
Geometry questions included floor tiling (based on dimensions) and triangles (basic properties).
Algebra had 2 questions involving basic equations; one question was reportedly ambiguous.
One number system question and one DI (Data Interpretation) question were asked; both were straightforward.
The section was easy to moderate, mainly due to a few lengthy arithmetic questions.
General Awareness (16 Questions)

10 questions were from Static GK and 6 from Current Affairs.
Static GK included questions on youngest PM, vice-chancellors, and species of cheetah.

Around 6–7 questions were based on familiar content from SET mocks.
The section was moderate to difficult.
Analytical & Logical Reasoning (12 Questions)
More verbal reasoning questions (around 6) appeared than in Slot 1.
Coding-decoding had 1 question (less than Slot 1); no ambiguities reported this time.
Standard reasoning topics included clocks, calendars, blood relations, number series, and linear arrangements.
Verbal reasoning topics were increased slightly; logical questions were direct.
The section was easy to moderate and aligned closely with Slot 1.
Overall Analysis
The paper pattern and structure were nearly identical to Slot 1 of SET BBA 2024 with 90–95% similarity.
There were no technical issues or surprises in interface or navigation.
Minor variations were observed in a few sections (e.g., English was slightly easier, GK slightly tougher).
No section-wise time limits or negative marking allowed test-takers to optimize strategy.
The paper was overall easy to moderate.
Post-Exam Strategy
SET score carries 50% weightage, with the remaining 50% going to PI-WAT (Personal Interview & Writing Ability Test).
Candidates are advised to begin preparing for PI-WAT immediately, as institutes typically provide just a 1-week window post-result.
Focus areas should include:
Personal questions (strengths, weaknesses, achievements)
Current affairs and abstract WAT topics
Practice through mock interviews
