The book authored by Dr. R.S. Aggarwal is so impactful that if you cover this book thoroughly; all your 15 questions will be easily covered from this book. Many tutors of this exam are so confident about this book that they believe all 15 questions come from “A Modern Approach to Verbal and Non-Verbal Reasoning.” Such is the impact of this book. Topics such as coding-decoding, puzzles, seating arrangements are covered very well in this book.
Another book of Dr. R.S. Aggarwal is based on quants. This book is considered the best book when it comes to the questions of arithmetic.
