In CMAT logical reasoning, you should practice questions from all the topics of Verbal and Non-verbal Reasoning. Verbal Reasoning accounts for about 25% of the questions while analytical reasoning topics like blood relations, series, direction sense test, arrangements, puzzles, coding- decoding, etc., account for 75%.
Practice as many Reading Comprehension passages as possible. Although in 2022, there were only 4 questions, in 2021, there were 14 questions. So, do not leave this topic untouched before the exam. The difficulty level of the passages is not very high, so make sure that you attempt all the questions in the exam.
Usually, grammar and vocabulary have almost equal weightage in the exam. So, practice at least 30-40 questions each on synonyms, antonyms), para jumbles, spelling errors, error detection, phrases and idioms, etc.
It has been observed that in CMAT GK section, the maximum weightage is of static GK. So, try to revise only the notes or material you have to cover as much as possible. You can expect more questions from politics, economics, and general awareness on awards and events.
You can expect a majority of the questions from basics and business knowledge (about 10-15), 3-4 questions from government schemes and funding, startup and venture development, and only 2-3 questions from brand names and taglines, CEOs of companies, MVP, VC, investment related terms, etc. So, divide your preparation time accordingly to get maximum marks in this section.
