Please restrain from posting unauthenticated information.The exam is just round the corner and it creates unnecessary confusion.....Pls double check before posting anything regarding xat.You can contact the XAT helpline for that matter.



Hi to all the Expert and newbie pagals over here
(the ones who are criticizing an MBA portal's article on XAT)

I am a regular visitor of this site for years (days when pagalguy didn't even existed). They have been providing quality content over the years.

I would suggest u guy better put ur queries as comments at the end of that particular article and let their expert team clarify on the issue. This would be a mature move indeed, rather than just deciding on urself.

All the best

Hi Puys,

Need some urgent hekp. i have mistakenly put my test city as pune. How can i change it? i tried calling toll free number but cudnt get thru.

Please tell me if any one has idea about it..and also provide me an alternate number to contact the admission office.

Thanks a ton

Hey ppl,

I can understand the confusion being created but I seriously doubt the authenticity of the data presented. In the article it is stated that XAT lasts for 140 mins....As far as I can remember, it was for 2 hours (120 mins) since the past two years. If you need to know the breakup of the no. of questions from each area (as a lot of people are pming me) better refer to http://media.careerlauncher.com.s3.amazonaws.com/xat/XAT_2010_Analysis.pdf. This was an authentic analysis of XAT 2010 and would give you all a thorough understanding of the pattern of the paper. For any specific query you have the pm button .

All The Best.

if you will see the 5th page of your link, its written 20 minutes essay. so its 140 minutes

Essay

XAT also tests you on essay writing and 20 min is stipulated at the end of the 2-hour
test period to write a page-long essay. The topic for this year was:
Earth provides enough to satisfy every mans need, but not every mans
greed.

:o

Call XLRI help line

You cannot edit the information. Better to call the helpline.

Hi

I really doubt u appeared for XAT, as u do not even know dat XAT is a 140 min paper which includes three sections of 40 minutes each which counts to 120 minutes and one essay writing of 20 minutes. so total time period is 140 minutes.

TO CLARIFY YOU CAN THOROUGHLY CHECK THE LINK PROVIDED BY YOU
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.

All the best to all of you, prepare well and give it your best shot.



Why dont yoi do a favour and ask in XLRI office and enlighten us. As my fellow candidates i am also very much apprehensive about this news so i wanted to get clarified.

I read in this thread that a lot of importance is given to critical reasoning....

Can some1 please site examples of critical reasoning please...what is it exactly......Please help!! :shock:

hey guys !!
Do we have to post photocopy of marksheets also??
i have passed but some previous post say it so..
Plz reply..............it's urgent

@Khyatisingh

dude ...this is definetely not the way to respond to the seniors who take their time out to help us....

he might be mentioning the exam pattern with out considering the essay time

he not only wrote XAT but converted his call (see below his avatar)

i suggest u better take a look around diff threads to better know how people help one another in PG

PG:i should have written a PM(personal mail) to u...but want to make the things clear..hence posting in the thread
