• In questions 1, 9, 10, 13, two quantities appear: one on the left
(Column A), one on the right (Column B). You must compare
them. The correct answer to the question is:
o A, if the quantity on the left (Column A) is greater
o B, if the quantity on the right (Column AB) is greater
o C, if the two quantities are equal
o D, if it is impossible to determine which quantity is greater

Now, go ahead.

HAVE FUN

GOOD LUCK!
