Aditya can chose first lady in 9 ways. The other 2 can be chosen in 6C2 - 5 ways = 10 ways(why?) Since the two ladies can be arranged in 2 ways, the number of ways of selecting 3 contestants is 2*9*10. But the order is immaterial in our case, hence total ways = 1/3!(2*9*10) = 30 Hence, choice (d) is the correct answer.

the part in bold is not clear.why we are subtracting 5 from 6c2

See, since neigbouring contestants aren't allowed, we can chose next 2 in 6C2 ways. But even these 2 can't be together, so we subtract 5 such cases.

I think we should open a thread "QQAD 2006 revisited" in case many more like you are interested in the discussions. I will go by people's wish, provided numbers are sufficient.

Yes Arav,
Please do this. This will be great help to junta who joined this year like me and like to learn thru this discussion mode between beginers and guided by quant gurus..
Generally this year QQAD is gettin stall after say 11 am becoz problem are either CAT type or for gurus to take care and we to watch. But for sure we r learning a lot, please dont misunderstand me, Vineet is doing best job for us.Let it be as it is going..
Lekin Sir if we can have parallel QQAD, and can be of 2006 which we will bring a question or 2 even 3 from archive and make it open for discussion after activity is slow there in QQAD-07. Junta can have good time here further in the day..
Please finalise modalaties of this thread and guide us bro!
Regards,
Rajan.

I am all for it.
Somebody take the initiative ( best is if Aarv does so), formulate the guidelines as to how the discussions will proceed, decide the sequence of questions, the number of question to be discussed everyday.

and It will be pretty interesting..

[Aarav]

I will ask Vineet to open a thread "QQAD 2006 Revisited" and set the guidelines for the same. We are working on the best possible way where you all can leverage last year's QQAD with this year's. Will get back on this very shortly :-)

Hi,
I had subscribed to QQAD a few days back but no mail yet.
--> This thread has been active for almost a month now, so i am inclined to presume that QQAD has actually started. In that case, where are the answers/solutions being discussed?
--> On the contrary, assuming that QQAD has not yet started, when is it planned to start?

We are pleased to announce the start of 2nd edition of Quant Question a Day for CAT 2007. The regulars here are well aware of the 1st edition that was ran for close to 9 months ending November first week last year. The purpose of Quant Question a day (QQAD) is simple - to help CAT aspirants solve quality question(s) daily and develop skills in quant to tame the dreaded CAT.

You will have to subscribe to our Newsletter to receive the daily question. The question will be delivered in your mailboxes in the morning, starting from April 16. As like last year, the discussion will take place on the thread opened here, and the official solution to the problem will come next day with the new problem. The 1st person to crack the problem in given day will find his/her name mentioned in next day's Newsletter.

At the height of problem solving mania, QQAD threads would have more than 1000 views daily and it managed to cross 10000 subsciber list in the 1st year itself. QQAD will take off on April 16 and will run unintterupted till 2/3 weeks before CAT 2007. 264 questions were delivered last year, even 3 questions were delivered in a day for weeks when junta had demanded for it. I'm attaching the pdf which contains all the questions that appeared last year. The work of compiling the problems was done by QQAD's regular users of last year. We are sincerely thankful to them for all their effort.

With the time-constraint I faced last year, regulars will vouch for the fact that I ended up doing a fair job in driving the threads. As much funda-building as possible was done and doubts cleared during the discussions on the threads.
I would have loved to be more visible here now also, but alas I fear time wouldn't permit me to do that.

The baton of driving QQAD discussions passes on to a person who in my opinion is the best student of Quant on PG. He was a regular on QQAD, and one of the few who would crack even the toughest of QQAD problem (some were real hard!!) with quite some ease. Vineet will design most of the questions that will be delivered to you. I will chip in with my contribution of problems as well. My problems will be verified by Vineet and his would be verified by me before we deliver it you. This would double-check the problems delivered to the subscribers. Vineet would assume the role of a mentor here, though I'm sure a humble person like him would always want to see himself only as a student of Mathematics. It is very difficult to be in the role Vineet is taking. But, real Heros have always been 100 percentilers in when it comes to fulfilling the expectations of so many people. I wouldn't praise him much, as his work will speak louder than my words.

Success is always judged by the results - this has always been our mantra. We will try our best to ensure that each one of you who solve QQAD problems do very well in the quant section of CAT 2007. This was the aim last year and this would always be the end aim in future as well.
