Just wanted to know...are these EDU-CATS are worthy enough to go for? Are these being conducted first time? if not, then how is the quality of these papers?

Last year, Education Times had teamed up with T.I.M.E. for conducting 2 mock tests.
It was a good change for students of other classes like IMS or CL, but T.I.M.E. students weren't impressed. The Education Times mocks are also infamous for their weird venues.

The tests should be taken if time, logistics permit purely for more practice. The percentiles cannot be considered seriously as very few appear.

I had been a student of Byju Classes last year and had taken their mock cats. Their quality of questions is fantastic. But they did not provide the explanations on time. It was given after a gap of 2 weeks if i remember correctly.And the number of students is less. And it was taken only by Byju's students. But this time, it could be different.


It is a mind game!!!

No... Since Byju would be setting the papers this year, T.I.M.E. students might actually benefit from it.

Can Someone who has taken the test today tell us about the quality of the paper? Below are the points on which you can rate today's test:
1. Level of questions asked
2. Pattern of the test
3. Comparison with other test series
4. Any value addition you felt after doing the complete analysis for e.g. any new funda learnt by solving some interesting questions

I am asking since this is a new test series for sure the number of students appearing will be quite less, but if the quality of question paper is good content wise then it is worthwhile trying it for few times.

Any comments will be appreciated since I want to listen from the people who actually have taken the test and also I want to know whether i should go for it considering it is little overpriced at 250/-

Thanks in advance!
