Comprehension is the process of understanding and decision making.
Questions based on: Alphabetical sequence. (Difficulty level: Moderate.)
You need to be familiar with the alphabetical sequence, take a pen & paper to write a,b,c,d and play with it during the session.
Even I find these questions a bit confusing and irritating and time consuming too 😐.
