temporal- i marked earthly..
transcendent- opposite-i marked limited (coz 'transcend' means 'to go beyond boundaries' etc etc..)

my attempts- 112

n i actualy had two girls in my room sitting together (i guess they wud have filled d forms 2gthr..) n co-operating away to glory.....n worse..(horror horror!!)..there were two guys whispering so damn loudly for sumthin like 3-4 minutes..n d dear inviligilator stood dreaming barely 9-10 mtr away..!!

moreover..at 10 o'clock (after d starting bell) we discovered dat we didnt have anybody taking notice of our being d canditates....THERE WAS NO PAPER..NO 'OMR'..NO INVIGILATOR..!!they landed at arnd 10.05...n in 10 minutes we were asked to start d paper..wid few guys still filling in thr details on the OMR..!!

i have never taken such a mis-managed entrance test ever before....this speaks all too well of NMIMS as an institute..as to how seriously they take thr entrances..appears they r interested in thr baapu-bills (read rupiah) only..

frnd, acc to dictionary temporal means
relating to practical matters or material things, rather than spiritual
ones
and earthly means
happening in or related to this world and this physical life, not in heaven or relating to a spiritual life
and lasting means
not last long


u r rite bout transcendent it shd be limited.

nope ,even i dont remember any

I think lr cut-off would be 20 + because, it was easy enough to attempt 4 caselets in 40 minutes.. considering equal time devoted to each section...

Going by ur formula of any1 solving the four caselets
The VA cutoff shud be 30+

bcoz
fill in the blanks was a damn sitter(10 marks)
both RCs too(14 marks)

and then the spot the error was too easy so 8marks there too

tats make 32 for every1,so a cutoff of 30+ wud go alone wid ur formula


Get realistic,cutoff are always less than 25%

wat abt grammar
does anyone remember

shrey21 Says

hey guys dnt worry so much abt cheating coz its not a coll exam and cheating mite hv dun sm bad to all of dem dose who showed and who cheated

I am sorry to tell you friend, that its not a fair world. The bottom line is, those who cheated, got away with it, and would be probably amongst the toppers, and would also have a good GDPI,cuz of the high written score. But, there is nothing we can do now, except hope, that we did better without cheating than most of the people who cheated.

Now if u know u did not cheat, and u still clear, it feels good right. I did not cheat, and i hope to clear thios exam, and maybe if i do an MBA froma good college, ill tell myself i got through cuz i was capable, not cuz I did not have ethics, and was good at cheating.

Cheers.

It will be brass as its an alloy

and mutted wud be nullified

and RC will be earthly

frnd, can u explain me the reson why its hould be brass instead of tin

and i think syn of mutted should be subdued source :dictionary
even i marked nullify but dictionary says mute means to make it less (voice), quiet...n subdued means the same

and i still think its not earthly its lasting....source again dictionary for temporal...


wats answer for transcendent (antonym)?

hey pryanka u r rite but plz check d earlier post again
it was not me who has written dis mail....

oopsss sorry.....

hey guys come u with more question

dude can it b dat less
dnt thnk so

wats ur take on verbal

well i believe VA wud be around 18
LR 14
QA 22

see cutoffs are for eliminating ppl who go for just 1 or 2 sections and not the entire paper
also it chks whether the candidate is avg in all the section....

A cut-off of 18+ in LR means 35% as cutoff
In verbal i say it to be on higher side bcoz VA was very easy and i thnk every1 will agree wid me(on VA being easy)
The RC was a sitter and so was the fill in the blanks

Moreover the coll charges 950 for GD calls so they will call atleast 1500 ppl and wid LR cutoff being 18,i doubt there can be that many studs

I think lr cut-off would be 20 + because, it was easy enough to attempt 4 caselets in 40 minutes.. considering equal time devoted to each section...

BAck to reconstructing the paper - More number flashing through my memory


2107.. hence none of these (an answer to a calculation question)
36864 .. (an answer to a calculation question)

Ratio of some students in the DI set on engineering fields =>127:98 (or something close to that in the options)

The fraction (numerator increased by 500%, denominator increased by 300%) becomes to 9/13 => Original fraction is 6/13.. hence none of these

How many sweets were there => 25*125 => 3125

my answers same as urs and m pretty sure,we both hv d correct answers on d above ques:)

wats ur take on verbal

I did not get you....Please explain...I guess i should get a call for a score of 100 + ... What say?

hey guys dnt worry so much abt cheating coz its not a coll exam and cheating mite hv dun sm bad to all of dem dose who showed and who cheated

hey guys lets consider d following facts before predicting d cut offs:

1)sectionals coming into picture
2)bangalore campus cmin up
3)no. of questions reducing
4)calculation intensive maths not easy for all
5)5 options instead of 4
6)LR bit tricky
7)and on pg dere r toppers only


keepin dis in mind i dnt thnk cut offs gonna increase

and yes i dnt thnk dey wud dip too coz
1)easier paper den last year
2)calls will b made only for mba core programme.

keeping all dis in mind cut offs gonnaa b b similar to last year

my take:
ovrall:70+
lr:18-20
quant:20+
english:20-22

plz gv ur views

Well i believe the LR cut-off wud be around 14

@ sudhakar Iyer

I think we should try next year....
I hope u get it, man..

This time there might be above 400 seats taking into consideration of banglore campus,hope there would be arround 2000 calls

Puys,
I have mailed the following to 'enquiry@nmims.edu'. I will request the other puys to do so with specific details so that they take a notice of this fact and as I have mentioned, lets hope things will be better next year.
Dear Sir/Madam,
I appeared for NMAT test in Bangalore Center where the exam was conducted in a proper way. But my friends from Kolkata (Presidency College) informed me that there was rampant cheating and discussion during the exam. The same thing happened in other centers as well throughout the country.
After giving the exam sincerely, I really feel very cheated and frustrated to say the least. We expect a reputed Institute like NMIMS to be more professional in conducting the Exam because at the end of day, undeserving candidates will be on the rolls of such a reputed institute.
I am not expecting any corrective action at this stage but hopefully, things will be different next year.

gud job dude

So, do you say that if i get a call from both IMT and NMIMS, i should choose NMIMS?

ha ha ha......... we cant do anything........ just laugh it away... nyways... we r not going to get nything by getting depressed... but one thing hurts....... the same cheaters would be in front line if it comes to attack the politicians for their curruptibility....itself a paradox!!!!!!!!!!

mindtalks Says

..... hello!!!.... 2000 seats?????.......... buddy its 240 seats only........ i dont know if u talking about course specfic also (like capital mkts...n blah blah)....

hello dear i was talking of calls for GD/PI only........

GD/PI me unko dekh lenge

I hope i can help out with a few things here.

I gave NMAT last year, and cleared it. I had a score of 69, which eventually was the cutoff. That gave me a written rank of 2528:). Now the thing in NMAT is, the weightage to the written score is so much, that if your rank is extremely low, like in my case, it becomes very very difficult to clear the GDPI. I had an excellent GD, and a good PI, and my final rank was around 1400. That did not get me through. So, in NMAT I feel, its not about clearing the cutoff, its about doing so with a good rank, hopefully in the top 600-700.They give out many calls, cuz they charge money for thier GDPI process, it was Rs 950 per candidate. I feel thats the reason for the many calls!!

The weightage of the written test last time was the full 200 marks!1..This time it would be 150. Last time, 15 marks were the weightage for Work ex, and 35 for the overall GDPI process. So, if you have a score of 69 with a rank of 500 odd and u get a call, there will be people who will have a rank of 100 with a score of 100+, and this is an impossible margin to cover up with only 50 marks to play with.

Otherwise, i thought it was a pretty easy paper, and i feel cutoffs would be 75+, but to stand a decent chance u need a score of 85+. 105-110 should really help u in converting that final call.My attempts are somewhre between 120-125, hoping for decent accuracy.

Hope this helped in some way. Cheers.

if it has happend like this in many centres... then chance of getting a call is very less... as i was expecting cutoff to be arnd 72...... and my score arnd 70... now cutoff seems to be at a higher level.....

lets see if nmat people will do anything bt it.... doesnt seem possible

I think there will be around 500 such candidates out of 2000 selected,

i think so thr will b 1500 such ppl n 500 like us...coz thr were quite smart ppl to go clean chit in GD/PI .....

Ashirvadeb Says

only statement A is reqd.. we get a quadratic equation with a positive and a negative answer.. the negative answer definitely cannot be a digit.. so statement A is enough..statement B alone is obviosly not enough ...

DataSufficiency: What is the number?

(A)Product of digits is 28 and difference between the digits is 3 (I can't recollect this option clearly)
(B)Units number is larger/smaller than tens number


there can be two numbers 74 and 47 from first condition alone. So we are not getting unique answer. We have to consider condition 2 also to know if unit digit is smaller than tens digit.

NMIMS is 15th....... according to businessworld

mayb they are ,but their callousness in the handling of rampant cheating (already read posts from 3-4 diff cities citing the shameful cheating done at centers) leaves a lot to be desired ......pathetic adminsitration rite from d start wen so many ppl ended up widout Admits due to the PostBox use(only normal post accepted) and now the NMAT execution wid no control over the cheating.....hope i didnt hurt any sentiments ....these are all my views

Same at delhi too...ppl were cheating like anythin n no one was interstd to check them,
NMIMS must rethink over choosing centres or mayb they are happy with such ppl reachin into NMIMS itself.

god.. everyone seems to be scoring so high here.. i attempted a total of around 85 questions with accuracy > 90% VA was the easiest of the lot.. quants was very calculation intensive. and LR was the tougher one of the lot.
VA- 30-32
LR - 22 or so
QA - 30-32
any chances??

Why dont u ppl mail them regarding same... atleast try......
If they get many such complaints abt a particular center, they may take some action..... or atleast change the center 4 next yr.

English - 38 attempts / 40
Maths - 53 attempts/ 60

Overall - 121 attempts/ 150

I don't think i would have made more than 16 mistakes. So i am confident of scoring 100 +. I guess i should get a call based on career forum's and your predictions.

I have done pretty well in CAT. Expecting above 100 +. So i will take decision after CAT results.

Please help...Does IMT stand above NMAT in surveys?

if u go by surveys yes... even i personally feel nmims is having a slight edge over imt ghaziabad

Hi Guys...... This was the exam BEYOND IMAGINATION (at least ... of my imagination).... and i guess to get rank under 500, the marks would be again BEYOND IMAGINATION...
... Actually the facts which are forcing me to give seemingly exaggrated analysis have nothing to do with the NMAT questions, but the environment during the exam.
...... Wurprisingly, on most of the desks, the guys sitting were cheating in a planned way..... I hoped that scenario to be peculiar to my room only..... but again a big surprise...... everybosy was saying the same thing....... YE TO HOTA HI HAI ISME.......
..... i honestly invested 2 hrs ..... but counterparts (a lot of fools among them) seemed to be smugly pleased to get effectively more than 3.5 HOURS TO SOLVE THE PAPER....(as two guys were doing the same paper...... and then were telling each other)...

... how can i expect myself to be in final list.......... WHAT A SHAME IT WOULD BE TO HAVE SUCH MANAGERS WHO WOULD GO TO THE POSITION BY CHEATING AT THE FIRST STEP......and how a management institute can be good if it cant manage the exam itself........AND WHAT THE ATMOSPHERE AND LEARNING ENVIRONMENT WOULD BE THERE IN NMIMS ITSELF........ AMONG THE CHEATERS... CAN I GROW THR??... I THINK I CANT....

Same at delhi too...ppl were cheating like anythin n no one was interstd to check them,

dude,dont loose hope so easily.....TIME ppl dont even have the original paper and are most probably predicting cutoffs on basis of feedback from their students....so you shouldnt think u r out of the race just coz TIME says so.:satisfie:....cheers

even i think LR will hv lower cutoffs,and VA will hv higher cutoff
