MY C-DAY experience ( Thilak Kumar K )

CAT Centre, Date and Slot:9th Nov. Evening slot… MLRIT, Hyderabad

Finally my day has come. I couldn’t get sleep till morning 5. Finally had sleep of 4 hours. Got up and was really excited about the exam. After a very long wait went to the center and again i had to wait there for so long. Ya beautiful girls were present but not many..They too were like sitters present in my section-1.

1) How many attempts you have made?
QA-18/19, << Not happy with this though… could have done 2-3 more…
VA-24,
OA-42/43

2) Your last mock score?
70 – 90

3) How was your experience of the test?
Glitchfree. Everything was ok and well managed by prometric.During Biometric test my finger prints were very poor. Sat for 10 minutes and tried..Still they were poor in quality. Finally i didnt give my finger prints…

4) What was the surprise element for you?
Nothing

5) Any tips to handle the computer based exam better?
All knows it very well…

6) Your overall analysis of the exam: Toughness, new topics, sections etc.
QA : unlike other people who have posted I felt the QA section not that easy and found number of questions which were filetring IIMs and non-IIMs…Yes sitters were there. About 6 to 7 were dead sitters. 6 to 7 were Moderate and rest were tough and speed breakers.DI sets i found them to be easy in my slot. They were not at all calculation intensive.
LR – Moderate ,Not at all a cakewalk. But they were doable. Eats away our precious time. 4 LR sets with 3,3,2,1 questions were present in my slot.
VA- I am not the right person to talk about this section. VA and RC will decide my fate ..But still i give my views. I found all 3 RCs to be on tougher side. Other part of VA was moderate.
PCs,SCs,Wrong usage of word, PJs, FIB and that new model question were present.

7) Any other details or something you would like to share –
Paper is not that easy give it the respect which IIM paper deserves . Keep your head cool never stick to any particular question you will get enough Q’s to attempt.Don’t make silly mistakes….Accuracy is deciding factor for CAT 2011..
ALL THE BEST…!!!!
