CAT 2012 Preparation : LR

Logical Reasoning is considered as the toughest part of CAT by many aspirants. In CAT Exam, Logical Reasoning section questions usually come with 2/3 bits. A paragraph is given with full of information followed by 2/3 questions. You have to read it and apply your logic for answering these questions. 

In two sections of CAT paper there is no special section on LR but one can expect LR questions to be present in the section with verbal ability. 

The most important and first step in solving an LR problem is to write down all of the information given in a box, table or diagram e.g. if the problem involves seating arrangements at a round table, always draw the table first and then try various permutations and combinations of people seated around it. 

Once you have drawn the figure for the problem, you are free to think with a clear mind. LR problems usually contain several statements which serve as clues to solving the problem. 

Thus, the problem should always be attempted in a methodical manner, and solved step-by-step, because trying to look at all the information at once will confuse even the best of us.
