Question Logical Reasoning and Subjective Paper

Logical reasoning is the part that troubles me most.

1) I am unable to find out the logic in statements. And even after reading the answer I, most of the times, disagree with the answer chosen by writer. Is there any standard way or method to reach the exact answer in logical reasoning?

2) In MCQ type tests we are asked to choose the answer from available choices that supports most or weakens most the statement of problem. As the paper will be subjective then how come we choose the most supportive or most weakening answer? Will we be required to write a supportive statement on our own?

3) How can we solve logical reasoning problem with steps as paper will be subjective?

4) I want to post questions of logical reasoning here. Can any body solve them and guide all aspirants? If any member of this forum is willing to help then please reply so that I may post the problems here.

I have the same confusion brother. Everybody is suggesting that we prepare GRE type questions but it is clearly stated that this will be a subjective paper. What are we supposed to do?

The previous EDS paper now carries 60 marks only (20 MCQs) included.
40 marks subjective is a big question mark. Please do ask and post a reply
