    The IIFT exam is of two hours. It is held from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM. there is no sectional time-limit in this exam and candidates have to address about 110 questions in a 120 minutes. Because there is no sectional time limit, candidates need to have a tab on the time so that they are able to solve a good number of questions in every section. Candidates must have a time management strategy for each section so that they don't end up falling short of time in the last section. For example, they should allot maximum time for the section they find the toughest and allot least time on GK.
