HI friends,

I am back .Had been offline for sometime(Had to go home).U guys seemed to have done

pretty well in sim2. Things were not quite the same 4 me.I messed up the DI/DS section and aslo

made some of the very silliest mistakes here and there. My expected scores :

Sec 1

A-35 R-30 W-5

Sec 2

A-43 R-31 W-12

Sec 3

A-31 R-23 W-8

Aggregate

A-109 R-84 W-25 Score-77.5

To minimize the no: of negs. I tried decreasing my no

f atttempts in sec2. It dropped from 17 last time to 12 now >but the tail of woe of Rc continues. Last time it was 12/25 wrong and this time 7/15

50% always. The aggregate wrongs remain the same 25HI friends,

Hi guys,
Had trouble with DS in sim2 ,right ? Me too. Could be because we were used to
sitters in DS so far. DS used to be one of the fav't hi scoring section. this time out of 10
I attempted only 8 and of them 4 were wrong.
1 of the question which I got wrong was the one ab't finding the heaviest and second heaviest balls of 128 given .I thought it would be option (2) as the question was
whether he will be successful .By reading 1st option we find that he wont be able to do so as 36 attempts wont be enough. But the key shows the answer as (4).
What du u say? Have I missed out something or is there a flaw somewhere in my reasoning.

Hi,

sorry abt that letter coming twice .It seems to occur everytime after preview.
Vat could be the reason pagalguy?

**pagalguy** · 16-09-2002, 09:16 PM

Hello,
Make sure you click only once while previewing. Incase you click twice while previewing you will also see double text in the next page where you get a change to edit the message ( before final submitting ).

So double check and let me know. Meanwhile, use the edit function to edit your post

Hey guys,

Something seems to be pretty wrong with the way I have shaded the answers. <Man! am I getting into this habit

> I attempted 115 qs. and expected 81.25 , while the score shows only 97 attempted and I have an aggregate of 65.75.

Even my name is not full on!

Could anyone shed some light on what could be the mistake. Do we really need to make the shade as deep as possible?

**pagalguy** · 17-09-2002, 12:56 PM

Jeez.... That was bad luck pal. But good it happened before the actual CAT. If you are unsure of your shading, I think after Thursday you can drop in at the IMS centres and view your answer sheet.

Good your brought this up. Its a message for everyone to shade properly.

Regards,

khufu4u · 17-09-2002, 01:24 PM

Ya Guru...u can drop in at the IMS centre and have a look at the answer sheet....and thatnk god this din't happen in the real paper........let's all wait and c wat actually wen't wrong....
