General Knowledge in IIFT

General Knowledge is one area of IIFT that worries most aspirants but note  that the GK cut-offs will also be proportionately lower. So, it is not necessary to crack the GK section separately. You just need to attempt sufficient questions to clear the cut-off. Even if you can attempt 14-15 questions with say, 11 correct, you should do well.

Another point, with respect to GK in IIFT, is that the exam has traditionally had a lot of match the column kind of questions. 

This, in a way, is a blessing because each answer option has multiple combinations given e.g. i-a, ii-b, iii-c, iv-d etc. So, even if you don’t know the answer to all 4 combinations, there is always the possibility of knowing 1 or 2 of the combinations and getting the answer using elimination. 

We suggest that you look at the last few IIFT Mock paper to get a feel of these questions.

GK is not a section but boosts your confidence to crack CAT 2012

CAT aspirants passionately prepare for four sections but another hidden part of General awareness or GK sometimes is given back seat. 

Definitely GK is not a section in CAT but with reading newspapers and listing to news feature programs on radio of evening news at AIR and watching business channels will help to understand economic matters, political scenario, sports updates, national and international issues. 

With General Awareness you gain a positive momentum and energy which proves to be motivational and your confidence level remains high.

GK can’t be mugged up or practiced but it has to be a natural way of daily routine to be well versed with current affairs. It’s a reading habit of books beyond text books as that will yield you good results. 

After having written CAT there will be  very important and crucial tests still left over wherein General Awareness is much more required when you go for extempore speech, written ability test and finally for GD & PI. 

GK is a base to crack CAT 2012 without syllabus.
