Hello,
Strengthen your vocabulary and reading skills by reading the newspaper editorial columns and using books like Word Power Made Easy. Work really well on the shortcuts and mental calculations to ace the Quants section. Time management and solving the easy questions first are essential for the LR section. Give and analyze an ample amount of mock tests and rectify your errors. All the best.
Certification courses and/or live projects in the area of your interest would be beneficial in your selection. -

You should now focus on attempting as many mocks as possible and preparing your strategy, (since it has an option to choose which section to appear for first). Like my strongest part was reasoning, so I attempted it first in order to boost my morale. Try to give mocks by trying different sequence of sections to be attempted first.
