Hey..

Got a doubt regarding test window links.

If I book a morning slot on the first day will the link be on my home page till the end of the test slots, like for 4 days or whatever number of days the slot is for, or till the end of the day I booked?

And is it the same with inv and non inv tests?

Because I had my inv aimcat in the morning and I thought it would active till the end of the day like last year but after 3 hours the link was gone :(

In the case of non-invigilated tests, if u have say booked the slot for 4pm, then the test link will be available on ur SHP from 3:30pm to 4:30pm ie a half hour prior to and after the allotted time(4pm).
In the case of invigilated tests, the test link may be available the whole day, but u need an access code(provided at the test centre) to take the test.

aisa zaroori nahi hai bhai. the test link generally appears at 12 midnight on the day for which you have filled the slot for both invigilated and non invigilated.
In my experience, it stays till the end of the testing window (no matter how many days they might be)
However, the only exception is when you have filled first day, first slot in which case the link will appear only at the time of slot starting but will remain till the end of the window.


For eg, for 1315, i filled the 6am slot for today i.e. first day, first slot. however, the link appeared at 6am only. however, had i filled a slot for tomorrow, the link would have appeared at midnight today. both these links stay for the entire duration of the testing window.

This is what i have seen in my experience and this is the third time i am giving AIMCAT's.;);)

You can give the non-invigilated mock anytime between the date you book and the last date. I personally book all the non-invigilated aimcats at any random time on the first day and take it on my wish.

@WhoMovedMyChees, if you had booked for a slot in the morning, the link would remain active on your account till the last day whether or not you give the AIMCAT.

Hi Puys,
I was just going thru the solutions provided by TIME for the 1316 paper. I came across a term: degenerate isosceles triangle(question 10). Can someone throw more light on this please? all i could gather from the solution was that one side tends to 0 and other 2 sides are equal..... What exactly is a degenerate triangle and what are its applications?

TIA 😃

Hi,
Can anyone mail me the aimcats conducted before 1216. Would be really appreciated.

I don't know how to explain this. It's pretty much self-explanatory. Just write all the conditions given and follow the logic. It's simple.
cud never hv thot my first post wud turn out like this, but after completion of 1316 i was showed 43+46 = 89 marks and the same was shown after i checked the summary on my time's account, but the result shows 0 marks in both sections and 71 mins spent in QA and 0 mins in VA and 0 questions attempted in both questions.
Cant believe this. as per topper list it meant 203 AIR, (wud hv been my best so far).
P.S. - even with 0 marks i hv 2.16 percentile!


Feeling much much better now!

Q4. A lock has a code consisting of five distinct letters, from among the first eleven letters of the English alphabet. The lock opens, if any three letters of the code match, occuring not necessarily in the same positions. What is the least number of five-letter codes, one should try to be sure that the lock is opened?

(1) 8
(2) 4
(3) 5
(4) None of these

Can someone explain the solution to this qn?
I couldn't understand TIME's soln.


Arre bhai koi toh explain karo ?

While analyzing the paper i realised i missed out on 4 easy DI questions.I could have solved them easily but wasted time on some other questions which i couldnot solve ultimately.....
what is the right approach ?
shall one solve DI first and then move to quant?
or sum other strategy like first 30 mins this and so on.....
kindly help puys keeping in mind my analysis........
its very difficult to locate easy questions .....i want to know how to go about and overcome this problem........

can anyone please tell my percentile with an overall score of 54 along with the cutoff marks...
