How I Took My Score From 70 Percentile To 99 Percentile In The VA-RC Section of CAT

To begin with, I have not been a reader for most of my life so far. I only started reading after I saw the results of my first attempt and seriously after the second. VA-RC section was like a nightmare for me. While attending the first few classes during the first attempt, I thought it was easy and I can do it. With this thought, I left studying for VA-RC altogether. When the results for CAT 2017 were out, I was not at all satisfied with my performance. It was disheartening. I decided to take CAT the following year and this time with more seriousness.
