  • There is no secret to passing the reasoning section; only practice will make you successful.
  • A variety of topics are addressed, such as Inequalities, Input-Output, Direction Sense, Syllogisms, Data Sufficiency, Ranking and Order, Assumptions, Conclusions, Cause, and Effect, etc. If you struggle to solve puzzles and arrangements, consider concentrating on the “miscellaneous” portion.

  • Do not place too much emphasis on computer aptitude because most of the questions will be logical and include flowcharts and diagrams.
