How does one apply the ABC method ? For MCQ section do we make a table ABC or just roughly mark for review or what ?

The ABC method allows you to choose easier questions (because hard questions are also worth the same marks). This way, you get more marks per minute (of time) spent.
Now within the 'B' column, I would do 6 and 4 first... not 9 and 8. I am arranging it in the order of easy to hard (top to bottom), this way, my inertia is broken.
I hope this makes sense!
How much time approx do you think will suffice to do this in exam?(For quants and SA)
Also do you think we can do the same for verbal ability section??
I've seen people study for 2 years and not make it. I've seen people study for 2 weeks (for IPMAT) and make it.
So, to come to a conclusive answer (how much time it'll take for you), we need to know your base + pace of learning.
The best way to find out is if you could write a free mock or do the past year's paper (also available for free).
All you need to do is take 2 hours, be disciplined, write one of the above, share your score in the forum. Depending on that, we can comment on your strengths and weaknesses.
For Verbal Ability, attempting 37-45 questions is the sweetspot. You don't get the privilege of skipping a lot of questions here.
Noooo, I am asking how much time is required ( approx) to segregate all the question numbers of all 3 sections into ABC format!
Also is it advisable to segregate for verbal ability section???
Not advisable to segregate for VA, just keep attempting one by one, skip if something is confusing (unsure).
Apologies for misunderstanding your earlier question -- It takes 2-4 minutes to do this for SA/MCQ. While scouring questions, many just solve the easy ones then and there itself.
