no worries, my man. XAT tests your understanding. And (most importantly) its OFFLINE so no normalization or related mumbo-gumbo. prepare well

@joethaliath
bro, what bout ur IIFT? did u not write it?

nope... dint write IIFT , next up is XAT , THE BIGGIE .. have to start preparing soon..

@joethaliath
same here, though I did apply for SNAP ( cos of my inherent weakness regarding GA/GK) and yes, XAT is the blockbuster
@Vineeth555 hehe inherent weakness for GK/GA.. How do u go about with that?

Which newspaper?:P
@joethaliath
Websites, The Hindu and Business Standard ( being subscribed at home, so a no-expenses method ). thats it for GA

For static GK, had an interesting in quizzing during school and college days. SO

PS: XAT is joining the GK bandwagon for the first time. So, I have no idea what their style is gonna be.

Take it as x and 70000-x
So we get
x*0.2*3 + (70000-x)*0.12*3= 34215.36

Solve it. It's pretty straight forward.
