Not provide short tricks

I do preparation for competitive exam like SSC, IBPS, BANK PO etc. For these kind of exam aptitude and reasoning is backbone of crack the exam. Therefore I bought this aptitude and reasoning preparation. But when I started to solving this book I realized this book's level is very low as compare to Arihant publication. They also provide many short trick. And layout of book is very bed and font is very small which is also difficult to study longtime and dangerous for eye. Ultimately I suggest to not purchase this book for competitive exam.

Quantitative Aptitude book is mainly useful for various competitive exams like Bank, LIC, SSC, RAIL, CBI, MBA, MAT, IGNOU, CAT, etc .


This book contains 2 section - 1) Arithmetic Problems, 2) Data Interpretation with total 726 pages .


All chapters are begins with formulas with solved examples& then there have some problems& then solutions of the problems . Quality of the maths are good . There have different types of math in each chapter .


To crack in recent competitive exam main factor is speed, i.e need to attempt maximum number of questions in short time . So, short tricks are important . The main problem of the book is this book provide short trick for very few chapters which are common like solve Mixture Problem with Alligation methods . So, Sir RS Agarwal should provide more short tricks in the book .


Page quality of the book is not good . First few page are good quality& colouring, but maximum pages are bad quality with Black& White .


Another main problem is this book is not updated with current exam pattern . Now a days, questions are changes something, book is not updated with these changes . Some chapters are missing in the book - 1) Inequality, Some new type of DI which are very important for all IBPS exams are not given in the book . 2) Trigonometry, Geometry& few Menstruation chapters which are very important for SSC CGLE, CHSL are totally missed from the book . If any student read the book, he/she should purchase another a book for these chapters .


So, above these experiences I say that book is good but it is something backdated . Quality of questions also good . Only need these missing chapters& short tricks . So, as it backdated I do not recommend it too much . Anyone can read the book as a second book .

This book is not complete if you want to prepare for SSC CGL because SSC is now focusing more on geometry and trigonometry which is totally absent from this book! Only some problems on Area is given. No chapter on triangles quadrilaterals and circles.


So guys if you are preparing for CGL then dont buy this book and is of no use for people who want to clear aptitude of ias, mba entrances or campus interviews
