    You have got to buy this!

    After having read the other reviews, you would have judged by now that this is indeed a very good book. I won't say otherwise too. One of the best things about this book is that it stimulates your mind for tackling difficult maths problems. The level of questions is good and there are a whole lot of them! I would strongly recommend this book! It is one of the best books I have ever read.

    2.Start with your favorite topic. It will lead you to quick understanding of format of book.

    3. It is not only cat book. It is useful all competitive exams like SSC, Bank ...
