Thanx for that aarav.
But I am nowhere near to being called ' a person like you'.
I really find many people here who are much more good at quant than me.
people like you, vineet, sunit.chotu(last year) and implex.
It's just that I knew my limitations in quant. I was perfectly confident about what questions to attempt and what not in CAT 2007 quant. And that helped me a lot I guess.

But regarding all the questions I attempted successfully, I owe everything bit of it to QQAD and other quant threads on PG. They used to give me immense confidence and I was not at all worried about quant before going into exam hall and that really mattered a lot.

Bottom line : PG rocks PG's quant is the best

The first word that comes to mind is : AWESOME............. but that does fall short ............. will have to search for another..................to describe the contributions , dedication and perseverance displayed here.

Thanks a lot Aarav for the initiative you have taken. many people (PUYS) must have surely benefited from the forums and esp. QQAD.

I am very new to the PaGalguy family. I'm hardly 15 days of age.
I am already loving PG a lot, and the major reason for that is that we've got fantastic guys and gals in PG!!
Talk of intelligence or talk of helpfulness. You find it all here.

About QQAD. Well, I think that the QQAD philosophy is simply amazingThe QQAD problems, are of a very high level (well, most of the times..). In addition to that, in most QQAD problems, you need to be very thourugh with a particular topic in quant and use advenced formulas. This is what makes QQAD really special. It makes us learn a lot through every problem.

I still think that there is room for improvement for QQAD in the following ways:

1. The problems can still be made tougher
2. The maximum marks for each problem should be announced with the problem itself, so that students will want to score higher (for a question that carries more marks), which would ventually make him work harder. This way the aim of QQAD can be fulfilled in an even more satisfying way.
3. The answers which we get to the previous question can be made more explanatory and alternative approaches can be highlighted.
4. There is no 4.

QQAD rocks!! My CAT is due in Nov 09. So I'm starting early. QQAD is a great bonus for someone like me..
