It was clear that most of the students have scored at least 40% marks in the GAT in previous attempts, and now they were looking for strategies that can help them score the last few points necessary to clear the GAT Test.
Mr. Mobeen Ajmal discussed the general strategies for improving GAT score. He discussed about the order of paper setting and students own personal order of difficulty that can lead to maximizing the result if utilized properly. He discussed micro time management strategies; how people spend time in questions where that time should be saved and utilized later to do harder questions in their domain of confidence. Lastly he concluded by talking about the ten relationships that can be found in analogies that can improve the chances of scoring on GAT verbal.
Mr. Ahsan Ahmed gave students tips to improve a standardized test reading comprehension. He discussed about the general and specific questions and the six faults to eliminate answer choices.
