ICG are placed before sequential flop/latch. That's why compared to flop/latch, ICG get lesser clock period to meet setup timing on. + ICG has internal latch + clock gate thats why setup time is also more comparatively.

There's quite an extended back and forth in actual interviews for questions like this, so nothing quite like real practice. The Prepfully Nvidia ASIC Design Engineer experts have actually worked in this role, so they're able to do an honest-to-God accurate mock, which really puts you through the paces. prepfully.com/practice-interviews
