The main topics which are covered under this section are Arithmrtic, Algebra, Number system, Geometry, Mensuration etc. In arithmetic you will see topics like Ration and proportion,Profit and loss, percentage etc. These are the topics we have learned in our school days. These topics are familiar. You just have to keep in mind certain things when you will prepare for this section which are:-
* Brush up your Basic
*Start with the topic you are weak in.
*Practice everyday
*Solve ques from books or the study material

Cat ask difficult to moderate question so go through the question before you start solving from the 1st question. A lways solve easy and moderate question First. This way you can perform well in the Quantitive section.
