Let's look at all the students we have A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H. The guides are P,Q,R,S,T and they mentor 2,1,2,1,2 students respectively.Slots are 9:00,9:30,10:00,10:30 . Moreover economics, sociology and anthropology have 4,3,1 students respectively.Now from 5th statement, two sociology seminars and economics seminars are held in the same slot. This will not take place at 10:00(only one seminar is scheduled at 10:00), this will also not take place at 10:30( An anthropology seminar is scheduled at 10:30 and maximum three seminars are scheduled in a slot. Hence this will happen at either 9 or 9:30. Now from (7) A and G are scheduled in consecutive slots. A is scheduled at 10:00. Hence G will be scheduled at 9:30. SO from (5), there will be three students having their seminars at 9:30.Combining this data with the remaining points we get the following table<img src="https://lightyellow-stork-291267.hostingersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/WhatsApp20Image202020-12-3120at2011.58.59.jpeg">Moreover we do know that students having same subject are scheduled in consecutive slots. So we get<img src="https://lightyellow-stork-291267.hostingersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/p2.moreover.png">Here we can see that two seminars are scheduled in first slot.

Q can mentor only F or G, but obviously he can't mentor F because F is in the last slot, hence Q will mentor G. In that scenario D has to take the 10:30 slot which means D will&nbsp;be mentored by R and E/H will be mentored by T. So statement 1 and statement 2 both are correct.

Hence, the number of UK applicants is 0 in each slot.It is also known that the number of total counters is 10,&nbsp;among which&nbsp;four are dedicated to US applications, and two each for UK applications, Schengen applications, and Others applications. It is given that&nbsp;each US and UK application requires 10 minutes of processing time, and&nbsp;Vijay was called to a counter at 9:25 am. (Who is 5th in the queue). It can only be possible when the processing time of Schengen applications is 12.5 minutes.<img src="https://lightyellow-stork-291267.hostingersite.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/Screenshot_20231212_133454.png" alt="Screenshot_20231212_133454">On a particular day, Ira, Vijay, and Nandini were scheduled for Schengen visa processing in that order. They had a 9:15 am slot but entered the VPO at 9:20 am. When they entered the office, exactly six out of the ten counters were either processing applications, or had finished processing one and ready to start processing the next. Hence, at 9.20 am, there are exactly four free counters. Out of these 4, 2 is the UK counter, and the other two are other counters. (Since the US counters and Schengen Counters&nbsp;were either processing applications, or had finished processing one and were ready to start processing the next.)From the table, we can say that the total number of UK applicants in each slot is zero, Hence, the total number of applicants is zero.

It is given that&nbsp;the applications are scheduled for processing in twenty 15-minute slots starting at 9:00 am and ending at 2:00 pm. Ten applications are scheduled in each slot.Hence, the total number of applicants = (20*10) = 200. It is also known that&nbsp;50% of the applications were US applications, and&nbsp;the number of US applications was the same in all the slots. The same was true for the other three categories.Hence, the number of total number of US applicants = (200*50%) = 100, and the number of US applicants in each slot = (100/20) = 5It is also known that&nbsp;Ira, Vijay, and Nandini were scheduled for Schengen visa processing in that order. They had a 9:15 am slot. Since the number of Schengen applicants was the same in all the slots, it implies the number of Schengen applicants in each slot is at least 3.&nbsp;Similarly, it is given that&nbsp;Mahira and Osman were scheduled in the 9:30 am slot on that day for visa processing in the Others category, which implies the number of other category applicants in each slot is at least 2. Since the number of total applicants in each slot is 10, this implies the number of Schengen and other applicants in each slot is 3, and 2, respectively. Hence, the number of UK applicants is 0 in each slot.It is also known that the number of total counters is 10,&nbsp;among which&nbsp;four are dedicated to US applications, and two each for UK applications, Schengen applications, and Others applications.

(Since the US counters and Schengen Counters&nbsp;were either processing applications, or had finished processing one and were ready to start processing the next.)For the other applicants, the time taken to process one application is at most 5 minutes, which implies the total time taken to process 40 applications is at most&nbsp;(40*5) = 200 minutes.

It is given that&nbsp;the applications are scheduled for processing in twenty 15-minute slots starting at 9:00 am and ending at 2:00 pm.

(Since the US counters and Schengen Counters&nbsp;were either processing applications, or had finished processing one and were ready to start processing the next.)From the table, we can see that the first slot takes 20 minutes to complete, and after that remaining 19 slots take 15 minutes each to complete the US application process.Hence, the total time taken = 20+15*19 = 305 minutes = 5 hrs 5 minutes. Hence, the time will be (9 am + 5hrs 5 minutes) = 2.05 pmThe correct option is A
