• The Logical Reasoning section often contains data interpretation but it has no theories, formulae, etc. It’s a skill that needs to be acquired and not some kind of knowledge to be remembered. Hence, practicing as much as possible will polish the skills and help one score better in the exam. Look for an explanation as to why a particular option is correct and the rest are incorrect. This is what reasoning is all about. If you reach the bottom of it, you can solve any LR question easily.
• Before starting to prepare for the Logical Reasoning section, candidates must understand the type of questions that will be asked in this section. For this, they must refer to the SET previous years' question papers. Practicing more will help you discover tricks and shortcuts that can be used to solve the questions easily and quickly.
