Overall Level of Difficulty Strategy 129 to 130 Critical Reasoning Moderate - Difficult The level of the questions was moderate to difficult, calling for a careful reading of the paragraphs. 131 to 134 Statement - Inference Moderate Statements should have been interpreted by carefully analyzing them. All the questions should have been attempted. Please note that for question 135, all the students will be awarded one mark irrespective of the answer marked as none of the given options were correct. The explanation for the same is given below: From the statement given in option (c), which says that J.K. Rowling is the highest paid author, it cannot be inferred that there is no other author who earns as much as Rowling does. Getting 'paid' the most cannot be equated with 'earning' the most. Rowling might be paid the highest for any book that she writes but may end up earning much less than some other author for a lot of reasons – say, the other author publishes more number of books (than Rowling does) or has other sources of income.  The above is not applicable for students who are appearing for the online version. This question has been rectified and will be marked accordingly.

This section was dominated by questions from Torts law including but not limited to cluster questions. Few questions from Constitutional Law, Contracts and Criminal Law were also spotted along with IPR and International Law and Family law questions. A stalwart approach towards legal reasoning makes it a very scoring sub-section of the paper. Legal Knowledge: The Legal Knowledge part of mock 1 had a balance of questions from Constitutional Law, Contracts, Criminal Law, Torts and other General Principles of law. The answer to Question No. 189 has been wrongly given in the answer key as (c). The correct answer is (b) and those students who have marked option (b) as the answer will be awarded 1 mark.
