5 Steps To Improve Your VA-RC Percentile | CAT 2021

Ask any CAT Topper and he or she will tell you that VA-RC is the most unpredictable section when it comes to scoring in CAT. In fact, many toppers have pointed out that the VA-RC section in CAT 2019 was particularly difficult. With answers being largely subjective, there's a lot of grey area when it comes to this section of the CAT. This section generally consists of 34 questions of 3 marks each. So how do you go about preparing for this section right now? How do you gain mastery over the reading comprehension section, which historically has the most questions and takes the most time? How do you stay away from negative marking? How do you pace yourself during this seemingly long and exhaustive section? If these are some questions bothering you, this article will provide the answers in this article.
