All postsMany aspirants fear maths and reasoning, but the level is usually basic. Steady practice is enough.
Start with the basics
- Tables, squares, cubes and fractions
- Percentage, ratio, average and profit and loss
- Time, speed and work
Reasoning topics
- Series and analogy
- Coding-decoding and blood relations
- Direction sense and ranking
- Basic data interpretation
How to practise
Solve 20 questions every day, note the formula or shortcut used, and revise the list weekly. Accuracy first, then speed.
Do not over-invest
Maths and reasoning are only part of the paper. Give them steady daily time, not your whole day.
