Hi,
The test was a little tougher than i expected.The real decision Making was in return on investment because of the Pattern.I didnt count my attempts..but i persume a call getting score would be between 42 and 44 not more than that.To convert without puuting in a spectacular GD PI you probably would need around 50 give or take 1 or 2..
English was allright although lenghty..DI was allright Logical reasoning wasnt too bad.Quant was testing fundamentals more than Application
GK was a little difficult though.
Lets all hope for the bast and All the best for XAT | | | | | | | |

correction couchy....
1000 bucks to the tsunami relief fund wold have done some good i think i donated 1000 bucks to the IIFT shocker fund.
screwed up badly.... eng /di/ quant everything
what was with tangent vector and identities in math?? and the corved and flow rc
somehow admission somewhere this year seems to be another distant dream
by the way three cheers to IIFT for the horrible management at the venue...give the paper 15 mins bef time then take it back and the give it again 5 mins after the bell rings....the supervisor arguing that he will give the answer sheet only with the question paper...etc etc etc I do not suffer from INSANITY..
I ENjoy every minute of it !!!!! | | | | | | | |

Guess I am not alone in the forum to feel gassed cant even express my feelings correctly
GK - 20 attempts felt ok after this one
QA- big gas ,dont know what hit me, arnd 20 attemps in 45 min
DI/LR- OK was manageble again 20 gud attempts
VA- what was that -a novel or some thing,was fully psyced out 10 min in to the section and started to fire wildly(marking choices) and suspect will not find the mark
conclution it is ambitious for me to expect a call  
cutoffs-hmmm...... there are some gr8 brains out there so i guess will be arnd 55

Hi Junta
I second Nisha. Me at St Josephs. Blore. Std 4, made to sit on Nilkamal Plastic Chairs(they had replaced the usual baby chairs with these, the baby chairs could be seen piled up in one corner of the class).
The desks were so small that , I had a doubt whether to keep my knee under it(then the desk would move upwards) or to keep next to it(that would push the desks farther). The guys shouldn't have put us in such an uncomfortable situtation(both seating and the paper).
Had no sense of deja vu when I opened the paper. I did not feel a bit that it is an IIFT paper, which I happened to clear last time.....
GK last year was so easy, but this year lots of long questions.
QA was one big shocker with CATtish questions, with atleast on question from old CAT(remember the North, East etc circular wall question).
Last year QA was like could attempt all types, never this time. Vectors and coordinate geometry getting a place in IIFT, unbelievable!!!
Next had a doubt if to RC VA or LR/DI. Appeared to be screwy either ways. Did a bit of VA then to LR , back to RC.
RC passages last year were all small small ones, this year oh Gosh!!!!, all text book or some research paper stuff!!!!
No hopes, as I know how I did.
Cursing myself for botching up last year's IIFT PI.
Luv
