From this year the pattern of the first part of the exam has been changed. It is now more aptitude oriented. So you need to make sure that you cover all the areas like DI, Mathematics, Verbal Ability etc. In the areas of DI and Mathematics R.S Agarwal books are quite popular. There are also other books by Oswal, Ajay Singh too which are quite popular.
