counted attempts in real hurry in last min.........was close to 100+....guys how did you find RC. I guess english section just had RC and section 4 was full of uncoventional questions though the 10 questions on maxim, oxymororn etc etc were easy......but then only 60 seats are way to less to hope for a call......

i found few of the Qs whch had printed mistake (or may b in my mid they had mistake  )
e.g.
1. by how much area will increase/decrease of length and bredth of rectangle is decresed by 10%
options :
a. increase 1%
b. Decrease 1%
c. Decrease 10%
4. no change
I guess the correct answer shd b 19% decrease
2. there was a QA question whch had 2 printed instead of root2.. This Q has root3 - root2 in numerotr and root3 + 2 in denominato

Damn.....Just attempted 8 Qs in RC  ..Total 86 attempts.
LR : 27
RC: 8
QA : 29
xxxxx: 22
Decent accuracy in LR. Almost 90% correct in Quant. No idea abt the IV section.
