The marking scheme of the SNAP exam is-The SNAP exam duration is 60 minutes without a break or sectional time limit.The total number of questions is 60.SNAP General English section has 15 questions, The Analytical & Logical Reasoning section (A-LR) has 25 questions and the Quantitative-Data Interpretation & Data Sufficiency (QA, DI-DS) has 20 questions.The total mark of the exam is 60.Every question carries 1 mark and there is a negative marking of - 0.25 marks for every wrong attempt.Up to three attempts are allowed for every aspirant (you will have to pay the fee per attempt).The difficulty level of the SNAP exam is easy to moderate.We hope this was helpful.Thank you.

The difficulty level of the Symbiosis National Aptitude Test (SNAP) question paper is easy and this computer-based test is one of the most student-friendly test structures. But to answer your questions which section is the toughest in the SNAP exam among General English (GE), Quantitative Aptitude, Data Interpretation and Data Sufficiency (QA, DI-DS) and Analytical & Logical Reasoning (A-LR) then it has to be the Analytical & Logical Reasoning as it has more weightage.In the SNAP 2023 the second section was tougher than the rest of the two. Take a look at the detailed exam pattern of the SNAP exam:SNAP SectionsNumber of MCQsSNAP Total MarksGeneral English (VARC)1515Quantitative, Data Interpretation & Data Sufficiency2020Analytical & Logical Reasoning2525Total6060We hope this was helpful and prepared in a way that you can answer all three sections easily and effortlessly.Thank you.

SNAP syllabus is similar to other MBA entrance exams, so candidates can prepare for it by referring to books for CAT and XAT, etc. But they must solve SNAP specific sample paper and mock tests to develop the skill to solve SNAP questions which are slightly different from other MBA entrance exams. Some of the books that are recommended for SNAP preparation have been listed below:Quantitative Aptitude for Competitive Examinations by Varun GuptaQuantitative Aptitude for All Competitive Examinations by Abhijit GuhaQuantitative Aptitude for Competitive Examinations by R S AggarwalSNAP Symbiosis MBA Admission Test by Priyanka PrakashanA Modern Approach to Logical Reasoning by R S AggarwalObjective General English by R.S. Aggarwal, Vikas AggarwalCompetitive General English by Kiran PrakashanGeneral English for Competitive Exams by Disha ExpertsHigh School English Grammar by Wren & MartinWord Power Made Easy by Norman Lewis     

SNAP syllabus for Quantitative Aptitude includes topics of Data Interpretation as well. Candidates have to study Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Mensuration, Number System, Logarithm, Linear Equations & Quadratic Equations, Set Theory, Arithmetic, Progressions, Binomial Theorem, Surds and Indices, Inequalities, Permutation & Combination, Probability Functions, Mixtures & Alligations, Co-ordinate Geometry, Series, Graphs-Pie Chart, Bar Graphs and Tables as part of SNAP Quantitative Aptitude syllabus.The SNAP Quantitative Aptitude section includes Data Interpretation and Data Sufficiency. The total number of questions in this section is 20 and the section is dominated by Arithmetic. Since the past two years, no Data Sufficiency questions have been asked. So, candidates must focus more on Quantitative Aptitude while preparing for the SNAP exam. This section is all about accuracy so have complete clarity of concepts and theorems.

The syllabus for Analytical and Logical Reasoning section of SNAP exam includes topics such as Family Tree/Blood Relations, Coding/Decoding, Analogy & Series, Seating Arrangement, Direction Sense, Mathematical Reasoning, Clocks & Calendars, Syllogisms, Meaningful Word/Matrix, Critical Reasoning, Visual Reasoning, Verbal & Miscellaneous Reasoning. The Analytical and Logical Reasoning section of SNAP carries maximum number of questions i.e. 25. Candidates have to choose the questions they can answer correctly, otherwise they will be given negative marks. So, SNAP aspirants must practice ample number of sample questions from these topics. The more they will practice, the better they will get at solving reasoning questions as it is all about knowing the patterns and unravelling the puzzles. Since, this section carries maximum marks, you cannot be ill prepared for it.

The SNAP General English syllabus is similar to that of other MBA entrance exams. It includes passages, Syllogisms, Analogies, Grammar, Antonym-Synonym, One Word Substitution, Similar Sounding Words, Parajumbles and Fill in the Blanks. This is the shortest section of SNAP having only 15 questions. Most of the questions are usually based on English grammar. For the past 2 years, no Reading Comprehension passage is seen in the exam. However, candidates still need to practice Reading Comprehension passages as it has not been completely scrapped. Preparation for the exam as per the SNAP syllabus requires not much time to prepare if your English is strong. But if it is not, then you must start studying English much earlier as developing hold on a language requires time.
