Overall Take -
According to Mr. Gagrani, the examination was easier compared to previous years. “There were many omission surprises” said Mr. Gagrani. “The reading comprehensions and puzzles were missing from the examination. Thus, the paper was not lengthy and students finished the paper 12 - 15 minutes before the allotted time.” BLAT 2019 was “easier and shorter” according to the expert.
