CAT is out of the Bag.
I hope many of you have already heard a lot about CAT 2009 today in the first slot.
Let me cover it in more detail.
It was 100% as was predicted by us i.e. 60 Questions in all with 20 Ques in each of the 3 sections.
Going into details of each section:
English: There were 3 RCs with 3 Ques each. + 4 ques on Para Jumbles + 2 FIBs + 2 ques on Grammar(Inappropriate usuage) + 2 Ques on Para completion.
DI/LR: There were 4 ques on DS. + 3 ques on Logical reasoning(Arrangement type) + there were 3 sets each having 3 ques – these were on bar graphs + 3 sets with 2 ques each.
PS: First of all there were quite many ques which were repeat from previous CAT papers. There were all in all 4 ques on functions, 2 on geometry, 2 on P & C, 1 on SI/CI, 1 on TSD, 1 on Averages, 1 on Number system(finding remainder), 1 on Trigo(Height & Distances) etc. All in all it was a very easy Maths sections for most of our students.
Note that CAT doesn’t mentioned what is the marking scheme this year and whats the quantum of negative marking. Though the paper said that wrong question carries negative marks.
We expect on the basis of this test that cut offs should not be less then approx 13-15 questions in PS, about 13-15 ques in DI and about 14+ ques in English. All in all this was a speed paper and this was exactly what we predicted.
We suggest that in a paper like this one should attempt around 45 Ques with not less then 80% accuracy.
