Quantitative Aptitude / Numerical Ability:
The superintendent exam will have Quantitative Aptitude and the Jr. superintendent exam will be having Numerical Ability. So what exactly differs both?
Well, to be very honest, both of the terms are related yet a lot different.
Quantitative Aptitude tests both your numerical ability as well as logical ability. So, in the quantitative aptitude section you need to be very careful about the steps and the logics of the problems. When it comes to numerical ability, it is mainly about the calculation.
In short
- Quantitative Aptitude = Numerical Ability (Calculation + Speed) + Logical Ability
- Numerical Ability = Calculation + Speed

English Language
The English language is expected to be PGDBF level for superintendent and assistant level for jr. superintendent exam.
The key in English is attempting with accuracy. Do not foul attempt and lower your chances. The questions are not going to be SBI PO or IBPS PO mains. So you have to do what you know. Because others, who have already gone for those mains exams, will have a upper hand (HONESTLY).
The important topics for superintendent and jr. superintendent in English:
