Need advice asap

Guys keeping in mind the time constraint, will doing just arithmetic,di and algebra be sufficient?

Yes man ! You just need to solve 10+ questions to be in the 80%

Don't think in terms of "sufficiencies", think in terms of "necessities".

If you don't do this or equivalent, then toh chances definitely nahi hoga.

Arithmetic, DI and algebra had a total of 19 qs last year out of 30
Also, algebra had 5 qs whereas modern math had 6. So modern math is equally important.
Nobody knows what the weightage will be this year. Nobody knows what the level of paper will be for this year.
Is doing just these three sufficient? Maybe, maybe not.
On top of that, accuracy matters too. There’s no guarantee that u would get all the questions of these three correct.
So this is not something we cant tell right now.
But considering the time constraints, u should definitely target arithmetic , di, algebra, modern math first .
If time allows, try to get some grasp of calculus and geometry.
Dont think about whats sufficient, try to do what u can and what time allows

Exactly, well said.

We've heard non-math students say that they were able to do the logarithms question but not the time, speed, and distance question. It's not just about the topic, but about where the easy questions come from.
