Hmm...I have been writing actuals and mocks (CAT, JMET, XAT, FMS)..And have written TIME and CF..but sometimes I have been able to write IMS and CF as well. Heres my take on the mocks: TIME - best picture ; tough mocks but ur real %ile (atleast CAT) will be what u get in mocks. CL - Good; but not as good as TIME. CF - Convenience ; I took them coz I could write them on Saturdays, Monday mornings etc., - Bangalore that was the case; not sure elsewhere. IMS - Good; but not as good as CL also (purely my opinion) Hope that helps. Cheers, Seizonsha | | | | | The Following User Says Thank You to Seizonsha For This Useful Post: | | | | | |

I m giving CL this time.
I think both CL and TIME are competing each other well in making toughest mock of the year.
Mock set aside, its the D-day dats CAT 2007 which matters.

As of now TIME stands as the best. Most of those who have taken previously go for it. Hence expect tough competition.
CL is also good. Here you can get all possible combinations of paper and section type.
I am ignorant on IMS front.
My advice go for both if u can afford. If u cannot go for 1 and take xerox of other.

hi all.
i gave time test series last year.
this year i am career forum test series student.
last year i have seen Time, CF and CL papers.
that too i am doing this year.
unfortunately i managed to see CF papers(2006) this year only.
if i have to compare, time has more number of test takers, but quality of Career forum teat paers is outstanding. time this years in terms of quality is ok.
CL papers are average. ims......... not to mention has lost the edge on mock paers preperation. this year in their first sim cat people were commenting that it is as ggod as MAT. also they have given caselets from their old study material.
i hope they will improve in coming time.
my advise is to join CF(for quality and variation) and time/CL for number of test takers.
i hope this will help.
