Micat 2009 - 22-02-2009, 01:02 PM

hey friends...use this thread to discuss micat 2009...

my paper...everythingw as going alright till the last section...essay..which was a total disaster for me...

also..mica threw few suprises this year....increase in sections..gk..only 2 essays...and timed sections...(very strict for that)

also there was a major goof up in my centre regarding that pyschometric test...they asked us to mark between 1 to 15...but forgot to provide 6 to 9 in the omr..we were instructed to write with pen pencil and not circle the omr...

also 15 mins extra were given for psychometric...total confusion

Same story here guys...

I guess 15 mins is too short to write a good 250 words essay... In GMAT they give 30 mins for a similar essay...

The psychometric mess was bad... Initially I marked 5 answers with 1-5 and 10-15... and then again I had to change and redo the calculations.. Overall I think I messed the paper... :(


Your time is limited, don't waste it living someone else's life
Don’t be trapped by dogma– i.e. Living with the results of other people's thinking
Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice
And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition
They somehow already know what you truly want to become

dude subprime refers to just low credit score!
there was a question on book by thomas friedman . the answer to it is the world is flat.
and nuclear power question --- i think hte answer is low pollution.
