The VARC section was brutal! Three out of four passages had difficult readability, and I spent way too much time just understanding what they were saying. I managed to solve the easy ones (2, 7, 20) quickly, but questions 9-13 from that third passage completely threw me off. The VA questions were moderate, which was a relief, but I think I lost precious time on those dense passages. Need to work on my reading speed for such complex texts.

This mock taught me the importance of section-wise strategy. In VARC, I focused on the easy readability passage (Passage 4) first, then tackled the VA questions. In LRDI, I identified Set 2 as easy early on and solved it completely before moving to Set 3. QA arithmetic questions were my strength, so I prioritized those. Even though it was marked as 'moderate' overall, smart selection made it manageable. The 68-question format is definitely more doable than the older 100-question pattern. 

QA section felt balanced compared to the other sections. I nailed the easy ones (2, 7, 11, 12, 13) within the first 15 minutes, which gave me confidence. The arithmetic questions were mostly doable, but those geometry problems (16, 17) were nightmares! Modern Math and Number System had only 3 questions total, so couldn't afford to skip them. Overall, if you're good at the basics, you can score well in this section. 

Once I tackled the easy questions from Set 2 and 3, I had enough time left to give the harder sets a shot. Smart navigation paid off!

The algebra questions were quite balanced. A couple of moderate-level ones actually felt doable if you understood the basics.
