Chose your questions, of course you must be relatively stronger in some subsections in quant so focus on them. Apart from that solve all the past year XAT questions from 2008-2016, it will give you an idea about the difficulty level of quant in XAT.

Reading Comprehension in XAT are of four types. You may have Scientific, technical, biological, abstract idea based, economics or any other type of passage that you may or may not imagine. The common aspect among all the passages is that all the passages are rich in vocabulary and literary language. They are inclined more toward philosophical thought, even if the contents were based on business and economy. Try to read the passages at least 2-3 times before answering them.

They started doing that recently only, you will surely find official answer keys for the last 2 years XAT papers. Try to trust IMS, they are the best in the business.
