Preparation for the Verbal and Logical Ability section of the XAT exam: This section of the Xavier Aptitude Test will require you to focus on English Grammar and VARC (Verbal Ability and Reading Comprehension). Develop the habit of reading online. Read online books and newspapers. Most of the Xavier Aptitude Test RC passages are based on literature and abstract topics. You need to understand the gist without reading each word of the passage due to the time limit.

Major part of your preparation is done once you prepare for CAT rest all exams have their own pattern and way of asking questions so we need to just add on some things based on that particular exam like
XAT- Decision making is a new section to deal with
SNAP- Vocabulary and grammar, some add on topics in logical reasoning like clocks, calendars, verbal reasoning etc. IIFT more about calculation and vocabuary again plus the questions are very lengthy in IIFT so get used to extracting the data fast from question
NMAT- Vocabulary and verbal reasoning, 50% of Logical skills section is verbal reasoning
So you just need to make these small modifications for each exam once your core preparation is over.
