I'd suggest analysing your educated guesses after every mock and checking whether your reasoning was actually supported by the passage or options. With practice, you'll start recognising the difference between a logical guess and a blind guess. 😊

There are basically two strategies: either maximise the number of questions you attempt or focus on maximising the number of correct answers by attempting only those you're reasonably sure about. When I was working on my VARC, I tried both strategies and realised that the second one worked better for me.

I'd suggest you try both approaches through more sectionals and analyse your scores to see which works best for you. :)

ok so ill start analysing if my reasoning behind marking an answer was correct or not .

ill try both the strategies this time . almost always i fall short on time when it comes to varc indore sectionals , so i'll too prefer the latter approach

thanks for the help
