SNAP 2025: Exclusive Tips To Score 99+ile 

SNAP 2025 is the test of speed, accuracy and presence of mind. You have to be cautious throughout the exam to select and answer questions. Start your preparation now to strengthen your basics and practice 12-15+ mocks to become versatile with selecting good questions. Visit the SNAP official website to attempt 3 mocks and get a performance analysis report. Focus on practising SNAP PYQs to obtain information about the repetitive questions, high-weightage topics, etc. Take a look at a few additional tips before you commence your SNAP preparation. 

• Master the art of question selection. Choose 40-45 good questions and solve them with good accuracy.
• Prioritise answering questions from your strongest sections. Use mental calculations more rather than a rough sheet. 
• Get done with the easy sections first. Start with verbal and then answer questions from the reasoning and the quants. 
• Scan a QA question in 30 seconds to analyse if you will be able to solve them or not. If your answer is “Yes”, then solve them.  
• Eliminate tough questions and don’t spend more than 60 seconds on a single question. Remember, SNAP is testing your time-management skills. 
• Don’t take more than 15-20 seconds to review the verbal questions. They are simple, easy and can be solved in less than a minute. 

SNAP 2025 Roadmap To Become a Quant Superhero 

Straightaway from the SNAP topper’s desk, we’re sharing the crucial information on the Quants section with you. According to them, 6 high-weightage topics will hold a considerable weightage in the SNAP 2025. You cannot skip them. We will now be highlighting the significant topics and the total number of questions from those topics that will appear in the SNAP.

A pro tip is that candidates must practice coordinate geometry and Venn diagrams. It’s a sure shot that there will be questions based on Venn Diagrams. Moreover, remember to focus on Modern Maths too, as that’s the highest-scoring section. Lastly, implement the 30-second scanning rule for the QA sections. If you realise you cannot solve them, just move to the next question. Read below to know about the most important QA topics that can help you yield a high score. 

SNAP 2025: 6 Fundamental Quantitative Aptitude Topics 

High-Yielding Topics	Total Questions	Information
Arithmetic	7-8	Easy to moderate level

SNAP 2025 DILR Strategy Breakdown 

DILR is divided into two major components,i.e, Verbal and Non-Verbal Reasoning. It’s crucial to pay equal importance to both parameters to solve the questions with maximum accuracy. In total, there will be 25 MCQs in this section, which will cover 25 marks. You will get +1 marks for every correct response and -0.25 for an incorrect attempt.

The former topic (Verbal Reasoning) will constitute syllogisms ( conclusion, assumptions, explicit assumptions,  implicit assumptions, cause and effect), which you must practice at a faster pace. Some of the biggest scoring areas are puzzles, coding-decoding, and series, which will sum up 80% of the DILR section. 

Boost your SNAP 2025 preparation with our paid and free classroom sessions. You can join the paid classroom sessions where Shabana Ma’am (CAT VARC-99.5+%iler) will cover all the LRDI topics from scratch. Moreover, we are also offering free resources on YouTube, which students can utilise to prepare for SNAP 2025. 

SNAP 2025 360° VARC Preparation Master Plan 

Main topics in the VARC are going to be para jumbles, vocab ( idioms and phrases), grammar (speech) and complete sentences (grammar-based analogy). The para jumble questions in the SNAP 2025 will be similar to the CAT. If you are preparing for the CAT 2025, you can easily solve these questions without any hindrance. A minimum of two short RC passages might come in the SNAP  2025, which will also be easy to solve. 

Secondly, SNAP is very high on vocabulary. Pick up the last 10-year SNAP PYQs, and you will understand it. You cannot expect to prepare for English Grammar and Vocabulary in 15-20 days, as it requires sheer determination and hard work. Shabana Ma’am has made a detailed compilation of the most common questions from this topic and will share it in the paid classroom sessions. These questions are quite insightful and worth it. If you get access to these questions, your preparation journey will become smoother for the SNAP 2025. 

Next comes the vocabulary for which Shabana Ma’am has created a list of 300-400 words from the Barron’s list and Norman-Lewis Word Power Made Easy. She has also analysed the PYQs to compile the unique and popular words. She will be sharing these resources via the classroom and YouTube sessions to make your preparation journey a smooth ride. 

Talking about the Idioms, which are easy to solve at the fingertips. Upon joining the iQuanta preparation course, you will be practising idioms applicable to the SNAP 2025. On the other hand, you must study “Direct and Indirect Speech” for English Grammar. Questions will come from this topic, and it’s a 100% guarantee. If you’re a student at iQuanta, you will get access to 150+ questions, which is a supreme compilation of Grammar questions from the past 10 years of the SNAP exam. It’s the masterstroke resource to nail this section stress-free. You will definitely come across questions similar to this compilation in the SNAP exam. 

Complete the sentence questions are based on Grammar. For example: While Rahul kept waiting outside and kept biting his nail, Anjali went out for a walk. These questions demand a knack for grammar, and you’re good to go. Lastly, Analogy is about finding the right match. You will encounter questions like milk to a cup, then wine is to ____?. Such types of questions are doable and shouldn’t consume much time. 

SNAP 2025: 12-15 Mock Tests Strategy & Analysis Plan

Being a SNAP aspirant, it’s a must to know that you have to train your brain to develop command over speed. Act like a sprinter rather than wasting your time. While preparing for the SNAP 2025, your aim should be to finish the entire syllabus in a structured manner. Once you complete your syllabus, start appearing for 12-15 mocks, which you can easily access on iQuanta’s dashboard. Besides the classroom sessions, you can practice these full-length mocks for the NMAT and SNAP. Do’s and Don’ts after the SNAP mocks are here.

• Determine your mistakes closely. Search for 3-4 questions that took a lot of time and challenge yourself to improve those concepts.
• Learn the art of skipping the questions. Check for 4-5 questions that might create burnout and avoid attempting them.
• Develop a “60-minute” time-management strategy for the upcoming mocks. This will stimulate you with the original exam pattern too. 
• Divide your strategy in this format: LR – 20 minutes, VARC – Next 15 minutes and QA – 25 minutes. 
• It’s a sample time-management technique. If required, you can make modifications as per your convenience. 
• Move to the next question if you’re unable to crack the core format in the first 30 seconds. Don’t eat your time out. 

SNAP 2025 Target Score V/s Percentile

In the end, it’s all about the target score. Your SNAP 2025 preparation strategy will be worth it only when you gain entry into a notable B-school like SIBM Pune, SCHMRD or any other Symbiosis institute. Set a realistic target of 42+ and then aim to score 48-49+ in the SNAP 2025. Remember, your SNAP percentile will be dependent on the paper difficulty level. The harder the paper, the more relaxation you will get.

However, if the paper is easy, then the percentile will be high with a cut-throat competition. The cut-off score for SIBM Pune has been a little low in the last 2-3 years. It was a bit difficult in 2022, but in 2023, there was a bit of relaxation for the students. Though it’s essential to score 50 in the SNAP in the past, SIBM Pune has also selected students with a 98.5 Percentile. 

Scoring below 40 will not get you a call from SIBM Pune or SCHMRD. So, if you’re aiming for them, then register for iQuanta SNAP preparation courses and take your preparation to the highest level. We will provide you with the best resources to score 99+ile in the SNAP. As a result, you will get a call for Personal Interaction and an admission letter from SIBM Pune or SCHMRD. Subsequently, other Symbiosis universities will also be waiting to welcome you wholeheartedly. But your final destination will either be SIBM Pune or SCHMRD. Register now and kickstart your SNAP preparation with iQuanta experts.

SNAP 2025: SIBM Pune Target Score and Percentile 

SNAP B-School	Target Cut-Off Score	Percentile	Total Course Fees	Highest Average Package
SIBM Pune	50	99.8%-99.9%	25 Lakhs	26.77 LPA
