That guy has given lot f formulaes...

I guess loads f formulaes doesnt help anyone in realtime scenario

Hi I have been a guha fan u can definately refer that book
ONLY for basics
its very good

Ill share some tips nad tricks in the coming days do check this space
See these tricks are gona be weird
but i can assure u i scored very well in maths using them
so u can use them if u feel like

Eg Geometry

PLEASE TRY IT FIRST ... i scored a 97 % in maths using this ...

Rather than using formulas try judging the answer on the basis of given diagram
cos if u apply formulas out there ur wasting ur time ..... ull never complete the paper
take my wrd ....
Now,
9 out of 10 diagrams will be drawn to scale
(so pick up any maths sum ... frm any paper )

Now 2 sides will be given and say find an angle or 3 side

BY PURELY visualizing the options(answers) ull realize that 3 are eliminated out of 5
Sounds funny
do 1 thing try it with any sum
so u know such methods help
METHOds on ELIMINATION
they r faster n better


try it

adn come back to me if u feel they wrk

[deadlock]

Quant book By Abhijit Guha is the best book if u want to grasp the basics...there are sum tips too...and many conceptual questions...if you are able to do all of them...tht means u hv understood the basics...then u can try other book like Arun Sharma...or whatever the materials provided by the Time...

I wud not tell u all to buy the book of TYRA....there are only formulas for particular type of questions...they are applicable for those kinds of ques....but there u wud be able to find a lot of stuff regarding vedic maths...addiction...subt..multi...finding squares...wich wud help u to arrive at ur answer as quick as possible..

Don`t know about THINK WITHOUT INK

regarding DI...i wud like to tell tht just read the material provided by the coaching centres..and solve the question papers...MOCK CAT exams...tht`s enough

Tip for the day

In cat u will come across many sums like

23^4 + 52 ^ 7 + 22^6

how do u solve them

when i saw them for the first time i left them

My prof told me then hey man these guys are not finding mathematicians

the want MBAs use ur brains .... so he tld me some thing

see the most beautiful thing abt these exams is they giveu options !!!!

wow!!!!
so

we have a method of indices which can be used

check this space

1^1 = 1
1^2 = 1
1^3 = 1

now

2^1= 2
2^2= 4
2^3= 8
2^4= 1 6
2^5= 3 2
2^6= 6 4
2^7= 12 8
2^8= 15 6

do u observe the last numbers repeat at intervals of 4

its the same for all numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

so on a rough paper do it for all numbers

u will notice in cyclyes of four
the last number repeats

when u are trying to solve the sum


in 52^7

u seein the option
the option where last number ends with 8 is it
there be only 1 answer sarsfying this condition



52 ^ 7 + 22^6

here

2^7 + 2^6 karo

8+4=12

so the number ending with (from options) 2 is your answer

My gauruntee there willbe only 1 such option

try it with all numbers in cycles of 4
