Hello Linkon! Welcome to the forums!
It's really great that you're thinking about this 1 year in advance!
People have gotten in by getting 2 superiors + every other section above average (that is, high average or above average) in the past years but it really varies year to year, especially because as the years go by, the competition is increasing. This means that when you write the exam, this may vary. So, it's better to do the ultimate best you can, because in the end, you will be rewarded and aiming for the highest will put you in a good position to achieve the highest, even if that means achieving superiors in all the sections.
The examination includes 5 tests:
- Verbal Reasoning (multiple choice, 30 mins)
- Numerical Reasoning (multiple choice, 30 minutes)
- A persuasive OR creative writing (30 mins+ 5 mins planning time)
- Reading comprehension (multiple choice, 30 minutes)
- Mathematics (multiple choice, 30 minutes)
On the very first page, in the very first post, there is detailed information about what all the 5 sections involve + additional advice. This is the link:
