In maths and analytical, if you feel a question is taking a lot of time, leave that question and proceed to the next one. Then in the last 10 minutes or so, revisit the questions that you skipped earlier. Also if you are quick at arithmetic calculations, that can help you get through the maths section pretty quickly. For English, I didn't do anything other than doing the GRE words, which I was already doing for CSS 15. To be honest, those words were of use for questions of around 5 marks only.

Totally agreed with rk umar and appreciate his honesty.Most of the people who got good scores or marks boast themselves as if they are the ones with super Einstein sort of intelligence.That may be the case but Its one in millions.There is no substitute for hard work guys.Hard and smart effort can make a hell of difference.

I did not mention you specifically that was a general statement.Your previous statements gave vague messages regarding GAT preparations and scores and now you clarify things in response of our statements.Plus your academic back ground plays a part in your over all performance in GAT sort of tests as a person with strong Maths or Physical Sciences back ground can definitely do better than a person with Humainities and Social science background with little preparation.
