The VARC (Verbal Ability and Reading Comprehension) Section in CAT is typically the first section that a candidate has to attempt in Common Admission Test (CAT). It tests the speed, accuracy, and patience of the candidate. Following are some useful tips that a candidate can follow for this section:
-
Since a candidate can shuffle among questions at their own convenience, it is at their discretion whether to attempt the Verbal Ability part first or the Reading Comprehension part first. This should depend on the strong points that the candidate has discovered or developed while giving mocks for the same.
-
In order to ace Reading Comprehension, the candidate should have a good hold on the various genres that can be covered in these comprehensions.
-
The verbal ability part of this section consists of par jumbles, odd sentences out, and a summary of a paragraph, and to ace this section, it primarily depends on the candidate’s ability to connect various sentences.
-
As a whole, to score a good percentile in this section, the candidate should prioritize accuracy over attempts.
