Great scores @pugna ďťż@raku1989 😃

@rohan_bhasker : all thanks to you pal 😃 ...
@pugna that's what friends are for, buddy :)
@rohan_bhasker @raku1989 @pugna Help me with Sect II I couldn't study for the past 1 week. But that still doesn't explain how i ended up with just 28 in 1303. Give me some tips on how to approach PJ, sentence correct and fill in the blanks.
@seetharam7 : dude...my personal take on VA is that one gotta be in a really gud mood to think along the lines of the author...treat it as a boggart 😁 (excuse me for that 😁 ) ...

Parajumbles:
* Like always identify the opening sentence.
*There will be atleast two options with the same starting sentence mostly.Here logical consistency of the whole thing comes into play.
*Then eliminate the options.
PS: Its a very scoring section. Dont miss it :)

Sentence Correction:
Now this is solely based on your years of amassed language. So what i usually do is to go for the maximum accuracy. If not sure, dont answer it. Option elimination may be possible. But its a very misleading section in my opinion.

Fill in the blanks
I work this out based on the logical consistency and sometimes the usage of the words that would make a good fit into the blanks. Its a relatively scoring section in my opinion.

Anyways I am not a good scorer in this section. So wait for what raku and @rohan_bhasker will post for the same. ATB :)
@pugna Thanks man. Whats the best source for practice according to you ? What are you studying nowadays ?
@seetharam7 : i used 2 do cl test gym for va which is really gud till about 10 days back. Then came a lag due to office and stuff. I have stopped studying now. I am planning to analyse the mocks and then tie up the loose ends as far as i can :)

@pugna two 100+ scores in one day .I'm taking 1302 2moro.hope the results turn out well 😃
@rohan_bhasker : ull ace it simply man... chill :)

Got my TCS joining letter. Dec 26 at Hyderabad. @joethaliath Got yours ?

Can someone please explain the basic concepts of shares ? I find DI sets on them always confusing.

@seetharam7

Post some examples of the same !!! it would be better to explain then

Team.. looks like everyone is peaking at the right time.. sans me ofcourse
@raku1989 @pugna @rohan_bhasker What are you guyz smoking ??

1303 was better compared to 1302..atleast OA wise..

S1 :54 (No excuses.. was a 70+ paper !!! )
S2: 44 (1st LR set ate a huge chunk of my time.. in hindsight, shud have left it to the end... but my inner voice kept on bitch slapping me to persevere with it!!! )
OA:98

Oh!! OA >100.. wher art thou ??

@rohan_bhasker : all thanks to you pal ...
@rohan_bhasker Sir.. i wud also like to enrol for your classes too ..
@pugna Thanks bro for your words of wisdom...

P.S : Could anyone post the approach to solve the LR q on clocks in 1303... kinda of messed it up !!

P.P.S : Could some one point me in the direction of which all CL Unproctored mocks to take ?

Have 17 days before my date with the feline.. would ideally like to attempt the best possible mocks closest to the actual one!!

I know its a very subjective query but since i have not enrolled in CL nor have attempted any of their mocks, would like to get your suggestions & advice team ?

@Kevin88 take up 8,9,10.. all are supposed to be not so tough mocks ..but tricky ones which did me in.. Also , I have decided to take proc mock 10 as the last mock that i will be taking b4 the D -Day. From the respective PG thread , i learned that everyone is finding it to be very close to the actual CAT.

Will let you know about the other Unproctored ones as and when i take them :D



@seetharam7 lol...no clue about the JOD as of yet , they usually notify us only 10days b4 😲 :X
@Kevin88 : taking mocks is fine..5-8 all r ok in unproc section..but in these last few days i would suggest analysis of the papers rather than grilling urself with mocks because either ull go overconfident cause of high score or become desp in the reverse case...also ull know what all strength areas you have and then attempt the paper accordingly :)
@pugna
Thanks bro... won't be grilling myself... my job takes care of that
On hindsight, since i wud be done with 1301 on the 7th, wanted a few mocks to get me into the mood before D-day..

Team, since we have entered into D-month, hope all you guys are preparing hard & wud try to be a bit more active here...
Pls post your personal/ideal final revision plans...
Hopefully can steal a couple of them !!!
