Pre CAT 10-28th oct career forum

Gave quant as a sectional test. Must say it was rather difficult and time consuming.

My scores are:

9C 2W = 34. I see that i have cleared the cut-off for quant.

Also, i feel that such a quant paper will not come in CAT. Alsmost all the questions were from number system and only one caselet from geometry. (Which wasn't pure geometry BTW). Whereas, in CAt you genrally have a mix of questions from all the areas of quant. I accept that for the past few years more emphasis has been on Numbers, however, it is nowhere close to the percentage allocated to numbes in this paper.

These are purely my opinions and others may or may not subscribe to them .

hi deep,
i agree with your analysis,
but i want to mention one thing,
quants is basically build on numbers.
series based questions are numbers,
geo when it comes to pyt. triplets it becomes numbers,
so numbers is every where in numbers.
One caselet on numbers:
one caselet on Geo:
one caselet on function:
one caselet on Series:
one i must say is reasoing:
hence all the areas are covered.
well u have really scored well.
congrats.
and all the best for D day.
