Hey buddy, me too had this AIMCAT in TIME Pune..like u did miserably in quants, i follow the same in LR-DI, VA was 51, QA - 20 and LR-DI oh pathetic 5 !!!...i was expecting this score in QA but not in DI..anyways this test has given me the exact path to prepare..

i agree wid sarvesh..tho d only bit i'd add is dat TIME, tho has tuff tests..i believe it works out better n the long run..coz ur preparations, in ur attempt to do well at time-tests, attains a higher level altogether..tho i took d IMS simcats, i would recommend you to seriously look at time (aimcats)..in any case u can take one test-series and acquire d papers of the others from d market (tho, it qualifies as PIRACY!!)..so rather, find a frend hu takes aimcats..

hey..dude..i played it a bit safe in the DI section...i answered the data sufficiency questions well..but went haywire on the DI..i squandered my time on quants...and yes it was big eye opener...got a clear idea wat idea wat to do before may end when the next series of AIMCATS will be starting...

Xero, I'd say TIME is good if your fundamentals are already in place. TIME folks don't spend as much 'time' on covering the basics, they assume that you already know about the topic. Try asking some IMS folks if you know any, coz I believe IMS mock tests and course materials are much more rationally prepared.

I can tell you one thing is for sure that the test series provided by them is the Best. And Yes getting a 75% discount is fab. No need to look for other classes buddy. TIME is almost at par as IMS as far as content is concerned. Infact it is much better if you see Quant and DI but is behind IMS in VA.
