The reading comprehension passages of the Xavier Aptitude Test exam are mostly inference based. They are usually from fields such as history, art &amp;amp; culture, philosophy, psychology, astronomy, sociology, and literature. In the past few years, we have seen Xavier Aptitude Test passages in the form of poems. Students are allotted a total of 165 questions for Part I of the Xavier Aptitude Test. There is no sectional time limit in Xavier Aptitude Test. However, an attempt should be made to complete the entire verbal ability section in a maximum of 50 minutes. Ideally, for Reading Comprehension, students can allocate a total of 30 minutes. For more information, visit the Shiksha Xavier Aptitude Test exam page.
