Long Term Goals-Cover all various types of questions on non-puzzle, like coding-decoding, syllogisms, questions related to direction sense, blood relations, etc. Solve all the questions on simple puzzles (like blood relations, circular/linear seating arrangement, floor-based puzzle) and questions related to input-output.

6. Build Exam time strategy
If you will go to the Exam room with a good Exam strategy, you will surely succeed in attempting every question. And for that you must make up your mind to skip questions you’re stuck on, to return to them later to complete the Exam. Skip every harder question that stumps you and attempt every question you feel you can answer quickly. For instance, if a minute has gone by and you are still stuck on a question, you should skip it. If you will keep mulling it over, you may naturally run out of time. So, you need to go through the Exam and try to do all the questions you know right away first, and then you will have loads of time to work out harder questions if this strategy goes well.
And it will go well with regular practice.
