If you have to clear Quantitative Aptitude, where English has the major role to play. They have these big paragraph but, their meaning is very simple. We find it difficult because the wording used is strenuous and hard to understand. To achieve exceptional marks just read novels daily to improve your English and the you will end up with having immense collection of words which will help you solve the problem.
