Hi all,
This was a 4 section paper with equal 40 questions in each section. This is how i Performed.

VA = 27/18/9 = 15.75
DI = 25/18/7 = 16.25
Quants = 22/20/2 = 19.50
RC = 22/11/11 = 8.25
Total = 96/67/29 = 59.75

Sure did brilliantly in quants. Shd have done better in DI. RC sucks fr me as always. Anyone has any methodology to follow fr RC.

I suppose MCT is supposed to be next level exams. As ACT is damn easy according to IMS standards ("tats wat IMS ppl say). They also said to have score of arnd 90 to expect a call frm IIM. sounds crazy isnt it. Tats why it is IMS


Do not tell a lie,do not volunteer a truth.

Re: Ims Act - 5 - 16-09-2004, 12:12 PM

Hi People,

ACT 5 was the first ACT I gave. There is a hitch in all my papers and I realised it only too soon. My English generally gives me the boost and QA gives me the boot. This time the RC totally killed me and it just makes me think that you cant enter the exam room with a set strategy. I wasted a lot of time and marks in RC just because I thought it was my strength. Could have used it in QA or DI to better use.

Nevertheless, here are the scores
QA - 17/14/3/13
VA - 35/27/8/24.33
DI - 28/26/2/25.33
RC - 21/13/8/10.33

Net - 101/80/21/73.00

People tell me, gotta get 90+ in these tests. Dont know but maybe thats the score for Vikkuboss !!!

Cheers
Veteran
