when we don’t get answer to an easy question, we become panic. So please do not
get panic while attempting these sections, stay cool and calm. I know its not that
easy but not difficult too.
Start with English Section, then GK, then Reasoning, then Computers and last

A tip* – Between the Quant and Reasoning Section chose an easy section so that
mind can relax a little between these sections.
English
It remains a moderate section. And those who are not good at English, LIC AAO
EXAM gives you a benefit – the marks obtained in English section are not added in
the final marks. So you just have to clear the cutoff for the section. The cutoff can
expected as 10 – 14 marks. Only attempt 15-20 questions with accuracy.
Those who are good at English, you people also don’t go for more questions in
English, because no use of these marks. Just clear the cutoff.
If comprehension is story based, you can attempt it easily otherwise don’t waste
time and attempt the synonyms and antonyms only.
Expected questions are 1 reading comprehension (10 questions), parajumbles (5
questions), cloze test (10 questions), error finding (5 questions), error correcting (5
questions) and fillers (5 questions).
Computer Section

important abbreviations, computer security related questions, networking, shortcut
keys, etc.
We have many quizzes on the site having important questions.

puzzle. Expected questions are:

2 puzzles (5 questions each)
Inequalities (5 questions)
Critical reasoning (statement n assumptions, weak or strong argument, cause n
effect, etc) – 2 to 3 questions
Miscellaneous (blood relations, direction test, etc) – 2-3 questions
Quant Section

section more time, even more than reasoning section.
Expected questions in this section are
2 Data Interpretations (5 questions each)
Miscellaneous(partnership, profit/loss, SI/CI, averages, mixture n alligations, time
speed n distance, time n work, etc.) – 5 to 10 questions
