QA continues to be tough in CAT 2012

Most of CAT aspirants are finding QA difficult this year also which is not surprising as in yester years too QA continued to be tougher.

There is no any fix syllabus for this section but with the expert analysis of previous CAT papers, questions are based on  Number System, Algebra, Time, Speed and Distance,   Work and Time, Profit and Loss,  Installment Payment, Clock, Mensuration, Allegation and Mixture, Work, Pipes and Cisterns, Geometry, Set Theory etc.

If you are clear in the fundamentals of the above you are bound to succeed in QA section of CAT. Primarily NCERT books of 10^th Standard will clear you on the above.

But problems might accrue to those who are not clear on basics of arithmetic and even one month preparation might not be useful.

CAT aspirants who are undergoing computer based test CAT 2012 should be aware of the fact that WAT (written ability test) will be equally crucial.

WAT will be topic based and in absence of any trend known or syllabus, you are not sure what subject can be given to write in the time limit of 15-20 minutes.

Your previous practice on writing stanzas and writing Essays will lead you to confidence for attempting WAT.

Besides having domain knowledge on variety of subjects, your creative writing, expression of thoughts, grammar and handwriting also will be on anvil.

CAT 2012 is continuing on an expected pattern

CAT aspirants who have taken exam have claimed that CAT 2012 is continuing on an expected pattern with 30 questions in each section (QA/ DI and VA / LR) and 70 minutes available for each section.

Over a couple of years computer based test is looking similar because of the fact  that in first year they had many glitches and then exam conducting authority is of the view to keep the exam simple so that aspirants feel good but naturally competition will remain tough as scores will be considered on percentile basis.

Aspirants might feel a bit relaxed but serious candidates like you know that after short listing a call letter from IIM will herald another tougher test on WAT/ PI hence, after getting free, sooner you start practice for second leg of exam, it will be better.
