Symbiosis Entrance Test (SET) - 2015

SET 2015 for admission to their Law programme was conducted on May 2,
2015, all over India. The paper was most conventional and expected. As per
the notification on the official website, the paper had five sections of Logical
Reasoning, Legal Reasoning, Analytical Reasoning, Reading Comprehension
and General Knowledge. Many of the questions, particularly in the General
Knowledge, Legal Aptitude and Reasoning Sections, are discussed in the
CLATPREP Education material almost in a similar manner.

Legal Reasoning
There were around 10 questions in which legal principles were provided and
about 15 questions from Legal Knowledge were asked. In Legal Reasoning
the questions were majorly asked from Contracts (Promise, Acceptance etc.),
Criminal Law (Theft, Cheating, etc.) and Torts (Negligence). The questions
from Legal knowledge were mostly based on Contracts and Constitutional
law (Polity). A score in the range of 22-25 could be considered good.

Reading Comprehension
There were approximately 5 passages in this section. The passages came
from a variety of topics and the length of each was relatively small. Most of
the questions were direct and could be answered easily with direct reference
to the passage. Apart from that 5-6 questions were asked separately from
the passage which included topics like Idioms, fill in the Blanks,
Grammatical Correction etc. A good score in this section will be 22-26.

General Knowledge
There were around 5-7 questions from static GK and rest from current
affairs. The questions covered were from almost all the area. The level of
difficulty of this section ranged was fairly easy and was considered as the
easiest of the lot. A score of 23-27 in this section could be considered good.
Analytical Reasoning
This section consisted of various question types such as series, odd one out,
assertion-reasoning, statement conclusion etc. The level of difficulty of this
section ranged from moderate to difficult. A score in the range of 21-24 can
be considered as good score in this section.

Logical Reasoning
Various questions based on Statement Assumption, Statement Conclusion,
Strong and Weak Arguments, drawing conclusions from given statements,
Analogy, Syllogisms, Course of Action and Critical Reasoning were there. To
add a flavour, this year some questions of maths were asked in this section.
These questions were based on clock and calendar, Time and Work etc. The
questions were of easy level and were on similar lines and patterns as in

score in this section.
