Hi there, sorry i was late, I was doing some work so hence i was busy. How many superiors do you need to get in, minimum i would say is three but the rest has to be above average. This is just a benchmark though as results can fluctuate and getting a superior depends on how well the 3000-4000 students do on the test. How to get better at verbal reasoning, personally, if you have only just now started considering to get practice in, it is very late though you can try to read books to increase your vocabulary. Maths there will be lots of quadratic (ie parabolas and factorising trinomials), linear and geometric relationships, like slope formulas, finding the equation of a line given the picture, same with parabolas (finding the equation of them), pythag, trig, probability, permuations and some others. Reading there will be poems, factual articles and other pieces probably so know most Literary devices/techniques. quantitative you can expect heaps of hard and lengthy worded problem and patterns, verbal is word relations, word patterns, synonyms and antonyms. Have a go at a few of these: Find the odd one out: Pessimistic, sanguine, fatalist, cynical, incredulous. Another: Which is the most opposite of the adage "vengeance is sweet": fortune favours the bold, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, if you play with fire you'll get burned, keep your friends close and your enemies closer, an eye for and eye makes the whole world blind. These are not necessarily indicative of what the real test will be like, they are just some random examples. Again, if you have only now started practicing for the test, it is very very hard to get in as there is only 19 days left, and squeezing too much in is not the best way to go, remember some have been studying for 1year+ for this exam.
