So Souvik messaged me on Fbk ..regarding his experience 🙂

Here it goes like this 🙂

“Web Maggu bhai cud u post this on your forum?  mera net is damn damn slow “

“

1) How many attempts you have made?

Attempted 30+30

 

2) Your last mock score?

Didn’t appear for AIMCAT1201 as I was apprehensive about getting a low score before my D-day and thereby suffering from a lack of self-confidence  AIMCAT1202 was 99.8x exact percentile yaad nahi 

3) How was your experience of the test?

My center was EIILM, Kolkata 29th October morning slot(yes i know the experience was long overdue -_-)

Reached quite early and faced absolutely no problems reaching the destination.

I was suffering from a bad cold and was literally sneezing all the way and yet my handkerchief was deemed too dangerous an instrument for unfair means to be taken inside the examination hall. 

Yes Prometric you were right i had smuggled in a shotgun wrapped in my hanky x-(

 

The camera was not of a high quality(read:my picture didn’t do justice to my inherently handsome face x-D ) newaz wandering *offtopic* now..this is what happens when I start talking too much 😐

P.S:- they made me stand in a half bent manner in order to take my picture!!why cudnt they provide stools or small chairs for that?  if ne1 suffers from spondilitis or a back pain please take a doctor’s certificate(people looking for serious reviews can skip this part  oops should have mentioned that sometime back )Tutorial was nice explained everything perfectly and anyone unfamiliar with the pattern or 1 who hasn’t given a mcok test before should definitely go through it

4) What was the surprise element for you?

Quant was child’s play  considering that IIM-C prepared the papers,that’s a bit surprising given the importance they attach to quant.

5) Any tips to handle the computer based exam better?

Just go through the tutorial it will explain everything. The slot i booked for my test saw no technical glitches at all, but should anything crop up while you are taking your exam, contact the proctors immediately and it should be ok..Do not panic

6) Your overall analysis of the exam. Toughness, new topics, sections etc.

Quant+DI section was too easy according to me,while the VA part was slightly tricky and saw the introduction of 1-2 new types of questions whereas LA was once again,relatively much simpler. I would stop at that since toughness of the paper varies from slot to slot and it’s best not to go with any premeditated thinking.

7) Any other query or something you would like to share.

Nah nothing else.that’s about it..Stay calm,do not panic and most importantly,do not let your ego about getting a particular question get to you during the exam..you are the best judge of your preparation.attempt the paper accordingly..1 or 2 new types of questions might be seen(not taking the risk of divulging them my apologies) but do not get troubled by them..sometimes the things which look the most difficult might be the easiest  Have fun everyone and All the best :)Hope I have not violated any NDA clause.If I have please moderators or anyone,PM me or write on my wall or do whatever it takes to get my attention   cheerios

@Apoorv shared his experience in our CAT updates..

Here is a copy of the same 🙂

[administration]

Given ,

P+Q = 1.5 R and R+Q= 3P since R+Q = 3P –> P+Q+R = 4P

Also it is given that , P1+Q1 = 3R1 and P1 + R1 = 1.5 Q1 –> P1+Q1 + R1 = 4R1

Since at the end of game P+Q+R =  P1+Q1 + R1 (as no of cards will be same )

-> 4P = 4 R1 –> P= R1

 

Alsofrom, P1+Q1 = 3R1 and P1 + R1 = 1.5 Q1 –> 3R1-P1 = (P1 +R1)/1.5

–> R1 = 5/7 P1

–> P= 5/7 P1

 

also give P1 = P+2000 –> 7/5 P- P = 2000 –> P = 2000×5/2 = 5000

Hence total amount = 4 P = 20000

Now we have one more experience from Mr. Ankit Dikshit  who messaged me  on facebook 🙂

Mr. Ankit Dikshit  is a CEO & Founder at Imaginovationz MediaCorp.

SO here goes his experience in his own words …

“Finally, after a long altercation with the house-keeping and security personnel on the issue “That, Whether I can take medicine inside the prometric arena or not”, I was escorted by a senior official who consented on the matter and I entered to the battle ground with around 200 CAT takers to HRIT, Ghaziabad’s Test Centre. It was 2nd slot of 9th C-Day, i.e. 4th Nov, 2011. There were lesser technical glitches and issues, as compare to last two years. Authorities seem to be use to with the system and resulted as smooth test environment and experience.
Today, I personally felt Albert Einstein’s Relativity; the minute seems to be hours and hours were longer than a day. It was arduous to wait any more for the C-Moment and which finally, appeared on its usual time i.e. 1515 hours. The QA section (21 Q) was a mix bag of easy, moderate and difficult questions with easy/moderate being more in numbers. Questions from all the topics were there with no surprises, as expected! DI as usual was core 2011 type, calculation intensive which may include upto 8 different long calculations per question!!! (That was too tiring and the whole DI was of this kind, found an LR set in this paper too!) I attempted 27 ques and keeping the fingers crossed, never attempted this much in any mock in the season but need not to explain here that mocks were the different allegory and CAT was again a different experience which is always arcane to all preparatory channels and takers!!
Good and surprising thing, I would like to mention is in between the transition of two sections, I was luckily allowed to use Rest Rooms!! I started 2nd section with LR, as per the plan. LR section was moderate to difficult but I managed to do all the three sets. Though I took 27 minutes in this part.. Then I started with RC which was typically was 2006 type where I found two options could be eliminated easily but the cantankerous left two options have kept droning through all the questions and all the RCs… To add, I also confronted a physco-analytical type question which was a distinctive experience. I attempted 21 in this section.

In PG Questionnaire Form!
1) How many attempts you have made? 27+21=48
2) Your last mock score? 91.xx
3) How was your experience of the test? Nice, with no technical glitches. The paper was a typical CAT standards with many tricky questions of ‘Savdhani Hathi, Durghatna Ghathi’ genre. Concentration and hence accuracy should be awarded.
4) What was the surprise element for you? That there were no surprises.
5) Any tips to handle the computer based exam better?–
6) Your overall analysis of the exam. Toughness, new topics, sections etc. Over-all moderate test with difficult VA+RC, difficult DI, moderate LR and easy QA.
7) Any other details or something you would like to share ……also
If you could attempt the paper again,what would you do differently. I did not read an LR set well and would like to steal those 5 minutes again (which I wasted), I think that would have made a big difference in my score.
My CAT’s written journey ends in normal mode and I would like to thank all the puys (active and inactive) who worked as a Team to fight the CAT demon..
Good Wishes to All of You…

Cheers,
Fungus
