Paper is really tough than that of last year, questions are almost out of the trend this year, was not expecting this paper like that. I took it last year and it was far easier than this. Again, US History going to be in the list of low scoring subjects. But I hope with well preparation it can be handled to the level of perfection. Hopefully you guys took it well.. Thumbs Up!
