IIFT 2018 was conducted today. Given below are the images for the questions from the IIFT General Knowledge section. I think the General Knowledge section was not exceptionally hard and it was on the usual pattern. I think the cutoff for the General Knowledge section is bound to be around 3-4 questions. So, if you solved 3-4 questions in the IIFT GK section and had no errors, you should be able to clear the sectional cutoff. However, for someone who was well prepared with General Knowledge section – he/she should be able to solve 8-10 questions in the GK section.
One important fact to consider is the fact that the total number of questions has gone down to 18 from 25-30 over the past few years. In 2018 also, GK had 18 questions but they were a lot harder. Cutoff for GK was ~1 marks last year and I expect it to be around 1.5 this year.
Easy questions in IIFT GK 2018 that everyone should have attempted and got right – 97, 98, 99, 101, 109, 112
Medium level questions in IIFT GK 2018 that should have been answered by good students – 104, 106, 110, 111, 113, 114
