Best way to increase aptitude skills?
If so..,suggest some measures?
It would be better if the suggestion is very clear not just stating that just work out previous papers.
Suggest a resource in particular and then give your tips(optional)/your experience?

Kaustubh KatdareThe best way to be able to solve multiple choice math and logical question is to practice. But when practice is coupled with smart problem solving techniques, the results are the best! The more the number of apti questions you will solve, the better you will be at solving them. The aim should be to attain a level of efficiency when you can guess the answer automatically while reading the question. Because having solved 100s of similar questions; you will know the right approach to solving the questions.
Solving previous years will definitely help. -

Keeping time restriction (ie solving problems within some fixed time limit) will help for sure.
Then the questions which u find difficult, you can discuss with us to get multiple ideas to solve problems.
Good Luck 😀 -

Actually i prepared my mind to practice apti questions in the month of june as i am having vacation and till the last moment of my vacation starting time my internship confirmation in a company is in pending and at last i got it and worked as an intern for one month...now i am not confident that i am good in aptitude and by next month probably we will get companies for recruitment so now i am having a lot of fear to face it...what should i do now? -

Kaustubh KatdareI'd say keep practicing the aptitude till the moment you get placed in your dream company. You can dedicate some time to hone your communication skills (if required) and it'd not hurt to go through all the textbooks and important subjects/topics before you face interviews.

of course you are ! don't be afraid. just think of the aptitude papers as one of the analytical engineering papers which you like. -
Ankita KatdareA lot of students believe that those with in-born talent have exceptional aptitude skills and they can solve aptitude problems much faster than others. There are a lot of misconceptions about having a great IQ as an in-born ability, when the reality is that every skill can be developed with enough practice. Ask that to a well-versed musician or a mathematician or a rocket scientist. They got to where they are at by practicing at their chosen subject. Same goes for improving aptitude skills. I do not need to repeat the importance of smart work being as necessary as hard work.
Why is improving aptitude skills important?
- No matter what career path you choose, the so-called competitive exams taken as the entrance test are going to be there.
- More than 70% of the world’s recruitment companies use aptitude test as a part of their recruitment procedure.
The best way to improve aptitude skills is by starting with one particular topic at a time.
Check the major areas where you need to focus your efforts on:
- Time, Speed and Distance questions
- Time and Work related questions
- Probability questions
- Permutation and Combination based questions
- Ration and Proportions
- Allegations and Mixtures
- Percentages
- Algebra
- Number systems
- Averages
- Data Interpretation
- Profit and Loss
- Mensuration
Tip: Solve any 10 questions of any 3 topics everyday. Within a week's time you will see an improvement in your results.
Once you are done chewing that book from head to toe. Go for solving puzzles. There are tons of websites that offer them.
If you think online is too much of a distraction, buy the books by Shakuntala Devi.
Names:
- Puzzles to Puzzle You
- More Puzzles to Puzzle You
Even if you dedicate just 1 hour of everyday for 2-3 months, you will see phenomenal increase in your aptitude test scores.
