I spent 15 mins on one DI which may be possibly wrong I didnt mark the answer also because I was afraid of accuracy. I don't know how these things will be normalized. Is there any way to notify prometric of these kind of wrong questions ?

For the LR section ( 10 Qs out of 30) you will find 2 types of questions -

1) Analytical Reasoning Qs - 4 profs teaching, 4 diff subjects , on 4 diff days of the week - arrangement of table etc.., Switches which need to be pressed in a particular sequence etc.
You can expect 1-2 sets like these. Total of 6-7 questions.
You can practice from an AR guide book / Mocks of any major Insti will serve the purpose as well.

2) Puzzles - You will find one-off puzzle questions. 3-4 of them in the paper
Example from CAT 1999 - Three bags contain blue socks, red socks and a mix of red and blue socks (not repectively) . the bags have all been mislabelled. Take out one sock from any one bag of your choice and correctly label all the socks.
Refer to puzzles of Martin Gardner/ George Summers for these types of problems

You should not ignore CR questions . Keep it as an element of your VA prep.
