CAT 2008: QQAD Practice Test Discussions

[PaglaMota]

can you puys please explain?

as 2^100-2 = 24 (mod25) and 2^100-2 = 2(mod4), and as 25 and 4 are coprime, 2^100-2 = 74(mod100)....don't know it is following from which principle...

Finally managed to give the Practise test...

Has been a rather hectic week, and it doesn't seem to end (the week I mean, and of course the work)...
Have to say, it was an amazing stress-buster (gave it at 12 in the night right after work)...Man, I need some more of these tests Aarav ...

Was able to do most of it, but as I expected, wasted time on geometry questions, and didn't end up solving them either ...

Attempts : 22
Correct : 21
Wrong : 1 (Careless mistake )... (Q 8, a+sqrt(b) one)
Unable to solve : Not surprising at all, 3 of the 4 geometry questions (3, 13 and 19) --Not that they were that tough I suppose, but just kinda blanked out...
Score : 83

I guess these 50 minutes (sat through the whole period because of cursed geometry ) were the max I have been able to dedicate to any kind of productive activity this whole week ...
Waiting for this trip to end...

I'm not surprised at a good student of quant scoring that high in this test.
Good score Gripened post the question # that you missed in 50 minutes and also the one that you got wrong.
