The more problems you do, the better you are.

What kind of problems you mean - "qualitative" is rather ambiguous.

I agree with Borek. The only way to get better is to just try and look and complete as many problems as you can because then you will start to become more familiar with it. Being able to practice them and see all the different possibilities will definitely help you to become faster and more accurate with qualitative analysis.
