"The paper was easy. The case studies were simple to identify, and the direct questions were very straightforward," said Samaksh, a student from Indraprastha International School, Dwarka.
Another student, Vaanya Seth, found the paper moderately challenging. "The case studies were competency-based, while the rest of the questions were easy and directly from the textbook," she said.
For Uditi Panchal, the paper posed no surprises. "The Business Studies paper was easy. There were no out-of-syllabus or exceptionally difficult questions. A few were of moderate level, but I knew the answers. It wasn't lengthy, and the MCQs were direct with no confusing alternatives," she shared.
