3. Decision making section: Decision making is a unique section in XAT that is not found in any other entrance exam. All you need is a logical mind to get through this section. It is a total game-changer and honest and ethical answers help you go a long way.
4. Negative marking: XAT has 0.10 negative marking per question after 8 unattempted questions, so be very strategic and smart about the questions you plan to leave because unnecessarily answered questions can do more harm than unattempted ones.
5. Verbal Ability section: Verbal ability has questions related to verbal logic and is a mixed bag of essays and poetry. XAT has reading comprehensions from topics usually found to be difficult by students such as psychology, science, technology etc. and the section is high on vocabulary. So, reading books and getting into comprehension reading can facilitate earning marks in this section. (Suggested reading: Word Power Made Easy by Norman Lewis)

All the best!
