Here are the tips:-

Reading Comprehension in 10 days:-

Read the columns, editorials and articles from the news paper and discover out how many words are there which you do not know.

Note down these words, know their meaning, frame good sentences upon them and start using them in your conversation to practice more on them.

While reading the passage concentrate on central idea of the passage.

Read the practice passage rapidly and then read slowly.

Write a summary in one third/fourth in length to the original length of the passage.

Prepare a chart on time taken in reading and writing the abstract of the passage. Time taken must reduce considerably.

Note down important phrases and words that decide the main idea of the passage.

By the time you are done with the passage you will have all the concepts handy with you.

Verbal Ability in 5 days:-

Practice and revise your stuff well.

Identify the type of questions that appeared in last year exams and follow them well.

Question based on grammar comes as savior when you are not fortunate with the passage.
The questions are not very difficult but the preparation tactic requires constant study and practice on different topics.

Use of “flash cards” with words & their meanings can be of major help. Keep a target of memorizing at least 10 cards daily and keep using them in sentences.

Logical Reasoning and Data Interpretation in 10 days:-

Speed is most important to solve this question. For this, you will have to work on your speed to attempt maximum number of questions.

Quantitative Analysis in 10 days:-

Revise almost everything from class 10th mathematics.

IIFT has a feature to show surprises. I

t had most of the questions from Modern Maths including Functions, trigonometry, in the Year 2008 to 2010 but in 2011 and 2012 the questions in the exam were mostly from Arithmetic and Algebra.

So revise the basics well. Work on understanding concepts.
