Hi,

Thanx for your valueable inputs. Kindly guide the ideal time that should be spent on
1.Each long rc + question individually
2.Short rc+ questions individually


There isn't an "ideal" time. Some people rush through the RC passage in 1.5 - 2 mins and then give a min or more to each question. Others take time to understand the passage giving 3-5 mins and then rush through the questions without turning to the passage (except for the specific detail questions). For some one strategy works, for others, the other works. You certainly cannot time each question individually since it will be far too distracting. Practice enough so that you learn to move quickly. Look at the clock after a bunch of 5-8 questions to ensure you are on track.
