AIMCAT 1302
28th Sep - 1st October
Non-Inv Test
Slot Booking started
All the best !!

How much have you scored ?

hey hi..have heard that this 1302 and 1301 will be again available for the people taking the CAT later in the Exam duration, is it true? also is will i be eligible to book it again considering that i have already booked the slot for 1302.Thanks

@riyazquest make the correction in the polls...first one should be 60.

Slot booking started..???

@pagalgarg ďťżIts ok dude people will understand. We can't edit the poll

QADI 19C 6W 51
VALR 20C 8W 52
OA 39C 14W 103
QADI ki to lag gai is baar ...i felt it tougher than last 3-4 tests
VA me to CAT14 ke pehle accuracy nhi sudharne wali

whats the procedure to defer the 1302 to Oct ? i have already booked the slot, fer tday, will I be able to take the exam btw 10th-20th Oct.

QADI 15C 4W 41 (started around 13odd mins late)

VALR 19C 5W 52 (a satisfactory score after a series of mishaps..)
OA 34C 9W 93 (+20 min score banta hai yaar)

Again an easy set of QA/DI...(though i cud have scored much more)..VA me bahut control kiya yaar attempt karnese..phir bhi 5 galat.. And LR was a bit easy as compared to the time consuming ones we faced in 1303...Expect many to fetch the GOD scores this time..
my take,cutoff expected QADI - 43-48
VALR - 38-43
OVERALL CUTOFF - 95+ 1iim call 105+ 3 or more calls...!

Section 1: 28A 27C 1W : 80
Section 2: 30A 20C 10W : 50
OA : 58A 47C 11W : 130

Paper looked easy to me, was shocked to see 10W in VA, pakka 3rd RC aur grammar ne band baja di.

QA - 19C 5W : 52

VA - 22C 5W : 61
OA - 41C 5W : 113

Still wasting time on stupid questions that I know i wont be able to solve (QA) .. how does one control!!

QA-16C 8W: 40

VA-21C 8W:55
OA:37C 16W: 95

@intelligio1 : could you give some tips on how to improve accuracy in QA?

Gave 1302 before 1303..

For a change, I felt QADI was very easy this time...but score say a different story!

QADI - 36 (14C 6W) (Y u No increase? - my maiden head bang!)
VALR - 46 (18C 8W) (Found LR pretty easy)
OA: 82 (Y u hover around 80-90 SO consistently! 😛 )

I still have the window open. So, will be posting some questions, I couldn't attempt..
A, B and C play a game of rolling a die by turns, in that order. The person who rolls a six is considered to have won the game. After m throws, nobody had yet won the game and so the three of them took a break after noting down whose turn it was next. If when they resumed the game, the probability that A wins is the geometric mean of the probability that B wins and the probability that C wins, then which of the following could be the value of m?

How to solve these kind? Options were 6,7,8, NOTA..
'a' and 'b' are the lengths of two sides of a triangle and the angle included between the two sides is 60째. If the length of the bisector of the angle between the two sides is 2, then the harmonic mean of a and b is
5rt(3)
4/rt(3)
3
rt(3)

QADI: 19A 16C 3W = 45

VALR: 29A 21C 8W = 55
OA: 48A 37C 11W = 100

I felt that Sec-I was quite tough and time consuming, compared to the past few AIMCATS.

I have no idea yet whether this is a decent score or just an average one, so will have to wait for more votes in the poll.
@frostie consider the 2 triangles made by bisector
Total area =( (a*2)sin30+(b*2)sin30)/2
Also, area =(absin60)/2
equating them both we get 2/(1/a + 1/b)=rt(3)...which is the req. harmonic mean
@frostie said:

rt(3)

absin60 = 2asin30 + 2bsin30 FROM HERE YOU'LL GET D HARMONIC MEAN.
