🐈 CAT Exam 2020-21 Preparation, Exam Dates, Results & Discussion – PaGaLGuY (Part 1)

Ye bik gaye hai coaching institute wale...ab coaching institute mein kuch nahi hai. Ye Bhen***d "Coaching institute wale" saare milke hume pagal bana rahe hai Ma******d ke bacche...itne ga**d phati ke hai ye bh**we!!!


CL ki answer key dekha...saala koi option yaad hi nahi aa rha. Time wale 20-30%ile predict kar rahe hai...40-50 %ile to Zero attempt me hi aa jate hai asli CAT me!


Time to search for a better planet...

https://goo.gl/f4ba4H

  f(x)= 5x + 2/3x – 2
g(x) = x2 – 2x – 1
Find g(f(f(3)))  

Is wale question me g(x)= x^2-2x-1 tha ya x^2-2x+1 ? 


Aur agr  ksii ko triangle wala question yad ho to batana. Jisme sides di thi centroid diya tha and fir pucha tha k remaining area kya hoga (Slot-1)

Aur DI-LR me  Maximum value that a third country can have(Different from Z = 17)?  (Happiness index wala) iska answer kya aa raha tha ? 


CL wale bc aise answers diye hain jo options me hi nai the -_-

 f(x) = x2, g(x) = 2x, value of f(f(g(x)) + g(f(x))) at x = 1  

Answer- 18 hain ya 36?


as per cl am getting 66 + 18 + 45 = 129 OA. prediction 95.5 %tile in slot 2. Is it going to increase because of scaling ?

mba kahin se bhi karun kisi na kisi saal CAT me 100 launga hi. CAT every year from 2018

Experienced people please help....

Who predicts most accurate percentiles..

  • CL

By going through the Career launcher answer, did anyone of you attempted the 8 freinds in a plane question from DILR? slot 2?


Just my two cents:

Stop going after any memory based reproductions of the actual paper. These have historically never and WILL never ever be even close to predicting your true percentiles. That is best left to the result day. Whatever has happened has happened and it is in everyone's best interest to focus on what's next. I can understand the anxious moments , the never-ending tantalising desire to know one's performance and the excruciating till the 2nd week of January(hopefully) but that will do you no good. So, prepare for the upcoming exams.


As for CAT'17, I will not roll out any detailed analysis but will surely say the following things specifically about SLOT 1(no idea about its counterpart SLOT 2 though):

1. RCs easier than last year but VA part time consuming and tricky => overall a notch above CAT'16

2. LR/DI was a little bit tougher than CAT'16

3. QA was way easier than CAT'16 and more on CAT'15 lines


Having said that, these are my score predictions for a few percentiles in a rough sense and should not be taken too seriously(raw scores) -


                      95                   99               99.5              99.9     

VA/RC           ~50                 62-64          ~70              >80

LR/DI             ~25                 32-34           ~41             >48 

QA                 ~52                 61-64          71-73           >85-87

Overall           No Idea           150-155      ~165           ~185+


Again, I would reiterate that this is what the LIKELY scores would be for the corresponding percentiles but how much one will get EXACTLY can't be known.


~Cheers and All the Best


DiLr slot 2

Finger print set. 

Question where two fingerprints were out of place-

answer 11 or 20?

people from slot 1..

In passage on map making... there was a question:

 Which one of the following describes what the passage is trying to do?

options were something like this

a. critiques the process of map making

b. tells myths regarding maps

c. tries to find explanation (why north at the top.....something like this)  

Please confirm the answer

No matter how badly I performed in CAT 17, I have learnt a lot from the experience. Cat 2017 has inspired me a lot...



Ab mai in winters me BLANKETS ki jagah SUBNIVIUM use karne laga hu...bilkul bhi thand nahi lagti 

(only Slot-2 people will understand)

In Slot-2, first question in VA/RC CL has given counter evidence as the answer. Was it the same option which said something about trade as well? I remember the last 2 options in this question were related to trade. 


Anyone else screwed up QA? Attempted 22 in Slot 2 with 4 confirmed wrong until now.. can be more. Yahan padh ke lag raha hai 85 percentile bhi cross hoga ki nahin! Everyone seems to be 55+..

To quote the 5th RC passage from TIME's SAMCAT 14..


"If we can absorb the memories of the past as a part of our intellectual experience and take the thoughts of the future as mental visions to guide us, they will surely supply the necessary executive power for our actions in the present.


There is another basic truth here. Just as we cannot change whatever has already happened, so too, we cannot dictate to the future. For our future is something that has not yet come into our reckoning. No one can asseverate, if at all we have one moment of life beyond the breathing present. Therefore, this present moment, is the only thing that belongs to us. The present action we are doing just now, is the only thing we can call ours. To do it well, the power-house of our past experience can supply the necessary motive power. Presuming our longevity of life since action begets action, it behoves us to so arrange our immediate activities in the present, that they produce a perfect consequence in the future. The knowledge required for this arrangement will be supplied by past experience. There is no certitude in human life as to what ought not to happen or what will. Hence any worry is pointless and unprofitable. The secret of perennial youth is this and only this. Without troubling ourselves and others, without worrying the body and the mind, let us make this passing moment delightful and enjoyable. If this faculty or frame of mind can be had, there can be no greater or higher wisdom. There is no other Elixir of Life for Eternal Youthfulness."


Stop looking at CL's Memory based solutions and stop worrying about it. First of all it may not be accurate, plus there is no point worrying about it now. Better spend your energy studying for the other upcoming exams than worrying about some silly mistakes you committed. 

What is the accuracy level of Times scaled scores?

I am getting raw score 7 in lrdi slot 1, any chance it might cross 75 percentile.?

Raw score of 130 in slot 2 can fetch how much percentile ? TIA !

CAT tale 1: So the ion guy said 'look into the camera'. I was like dude let me de-mess my hair. If I get a hundred I got to post this score card on forums. 

VA-Easy-moderate

LrDi-Tough

Qa-Easy


99ile for both Qa and Va is above 60,so scoring 85%ile which would be in 30's or 40's in any of these sections would be diastrous. At the same time Lrdi 99ile at 35-40 and 85%ile at 20-25. Do you guys think it is unfair? I mean is Lrdi more about clearing the cutoff than scoring? Are the scores of lrdi  scaled to avoid such disparity between the sections?
