By: Anshika on Aug 17, 2017

SNAP 2016 exam pattern has changed. The maximum marks has been reduced to 150 from 180. There will be a uniform sectional marking process this year. The weightage per question in the Analytical and Reasoning section has also been reduced. Earlier, higher marks were awarded for correct answers in the reasoning section as compared to other sections.
However, the number of questions in reasoning section has been increased. In the reasoning section the weightage of 2 marks in marking for this section has been reduced to 1. Similarly, number of questions in GK section has also been reduced in SNAP 2016.

Out of total 150 questions, Reasoning will have 40 questions carrying a maximum scoring weightage of 40 marks. The section reports a loss of 20 marks as in SNAP 2016.

Number of Questions Reduced in the General Knowledge Section

However, this pattern has been changed and now there will be only 30 questions, although the maximum mark per question would remain the same at 1 mark and the total marks for the section would be 30.

No change is proposed in Quantitative Data Interpretation & Data Sufficiency sections.Total number of questions will remain the same at 40 carrying 1 mark for each correct answer and 40 as total Maximum marks.
