You are advised to understand the question properly and then try to apply the correct logic in solving it. You should develop a habit of solving 5 to 6 questions daily to master the concept.
  5. The questions based on Data Sufficiency are frequently asked and around 3 to 5 questions are asked in the exam. The important topics are Coding and Decoding, Directions & Distances, Ordering & Ranking, Blood Relations etc. The questions based on Blood Relations are commonly repeated every year and so you should prepare them properly.

You should master the concepts properly to solve questions accurately in the exam.
  7. To test check student’s cognitive skills, questions based on Relationship Concepts are asked. The language of the questions can be perplexing and lengthy but are simpler to solve, if you apply the logics suitably. The frequently asked questions are based on topics like Single person Blood relation, mixed blood relation, and Coded blood relation.
  8. Last but not least, the questions based on Ordering and Ranking is asked in the form of comprehension of 2-3 questions. The asked question will test candidate’s abilities of counting from the back as well as overlapping counts from the front and back. So, candidates should practice at least 10-15 set of questions regularly to recognize the process of solving the questions.
