Solution
The correct option is C 60%
Option c
For the percentage increase in marks to be maximum, the increase in marks should also be maximum. This will happen only if he exceeds his expectations in the sections where he was expecting the maximum improvement
He cannot improve his VA percentage 3 times as that will cross 100%. He will improve his QA percentage by 3 times what he expected = 28*3= 84% and he gets 10 marks more than expected in Reasoning
New scores in each section
Reasoning=25; QA=23; VA=18 and RC= 14
Total score on 100= 80. Initial score on 100 = 50
percentage growth = 60%
