Only two more to go! The second PreSET was a little tougher than the first one. If you found this paper easy to attempt then you are on the right track in your preparations for the final SET.

Section II (Verbal Ability) was again a mixed bag of questions. The only question which was tough was ‘Analogies’. These questions will become easy if you have strong vocabulary skills. Then identifying and assessing the logical relationship between the given pair of words will make it simpler. The questions based on the Reading Comprehension, Fill in the Blanks, Synonyms, Antonyms and Correct meaning of the words were the ones which must have made you sit up and think. The simplest of the lot were Errors in parts of the sentence and Grammatically correct sentences.

In this PreSET the Analytical and Reasoning Section was the toughest of all the four sections. It demanded a systematic approach, and a good deal of practice in logical aptitude. So strengthen your basic analytical skills which relate to solving mathematical problems, it will give you a complete understanding of such mathematical concepts. The next attempt will definitely be simpler.

The Quantitative Ability Section was relatively easy as compared to the previous PreSET. This section would have boosted your score!

The General Awareness Section once again required an exhaustive reading of the newspapers and attempting the online GK quizzes on the Career Forum website would have definitely helped. ‘If the going gets tough, the tough get going!’ So get tough!
