It has been a lot many days but the photo and sign on my XAT application have not been uploaded despite being assured on the helpline about 12 days back that it would be done in about 10 days. Is there still anybody whose photo and sign have not been uploaded on the XAT application status page?

Hi puys,
I am wondering if there is a thread that discusses the core issues with refrence to the actual XAT exam...not form etc problems per se...
Is there any such thread at present or past...if there is, please post a link. Thnx.
Puys,
Please clarify what will be the test pattern this year if someone have concrete information.
I looked in many sites and it show that this time general awareness will be a part of the pattern unlike the previous years. Just have a look at below pattern
XAT Pattern
XAT exam is of 140 minutes and consists of 200 objective type questions and an essay of 250-300 words. Objective questions are asked ffrom the following sections:
English-80 questions
Reasoning and Quantitative Ability-60 questions
General Awareness-60 questions
All these sections are allotted a time of 40 minutes each. For every correct answer a candidates gets 1 mark and 1/3 marks is deducted for an incorrect answer. In the remaining 20 minutes candidates are supposed to write an essay of 250-300 words on a given topic.

Puys,
The xat site says
"The candidate has to enclose a copy of the XAT PP Form and send it.."
Does it mean we have to send two print outs ?
Not sure if it has been answered earlier, couldn't find it.
Nobody knows the pattern of XAT beforehand, the number of questions tend to vary every year and moreover, the sites u quoted mention " The Reading Comprehension (RC) section typically has maximum number of questions - 80." and "The Reasoning and Quantitative Ability section typically consists of 60 questions" both these statements are absolutely false as XAT is divided into 3 section, namely VA/RC, LRDM and QA/DI and the number of questions generally hover around 100-110(overall). Also the site says that general awareness 'usually' has 60 questions while the truth is that general awareness has not been a prt of the exam for some years now. The second site's article was posted on 9th august, when even the form of XAT was not out, so u can easily tell how authentic the information is 
Yes i am also surprised to see such a information and specifically in the last link

which is just few days back news....I am just thinking that they are planning to just re introduce the past years papers again because around 2003 and 2004 200 question was a normal affair and it is just after 2006 it has started decreasing the number of question.
wrong post
Hi all.. A query..
By mistake I pasted the Candidate's copy in the detachable form of XLRI instead of XLRI's copy. Would it be any issue?
Someone please help on this..

Even Though these sources are new, a normal practise in this business is to copy information from past sources. They would not have checked but published old article with a fresh date....
Call up XLRI'S office to get confirmed- 06573983333
One request to everyone, do not put any info here until you are 100% sure about its authenticity. People would take this data as base for there preps and making final strategy for the exams.
