Strategy & Tips

The overall feel of the paper was easy. Now talking of strategy, as a general rule you should not get struck in any question unless you are sure about its solution. Taking the Reasoning section, AR & Visual Reasoning was mostly moderate & difficult and thus should be attempted at the end if the time is remaining. The general strategy for Quant section would be to solve easier questions and leave all the questions which were difficult or time consuming. Now talking of strategy, as a general rule you should not get struck in any question unless you are sure about its solution. In verbal section, focus should have been on verbal reasoning, reading comprehension and Grammar.
