haan TIME ke mocks tabhi ajeeb rehte h..koi nhi...u can hope ki PM 9 nd 10 bilkul CAT ki lines par honge

S = .......2 + 4+....tn-1 + tn
____________________________
tn = 2 + 2 +3 +4+.....tn-tn-1
tn = 2 + n(n+1)/2 -1 => tn = 1 + n(n+1)/2
Sn =20 + 20* 21*41/12 + 20*21/4= 20 + 1435 + 105 = 1560 ??

When I have just started believing that my hard work started bearing me fruits, then it happened 63+30(understand it was an overkill)

we have to understand that VA is not our strength but i still feel that the right choice of questions changes the whole thing....sometimes i get stuck in LR and get obsessed with the set..sometimes i try to overattempt..i am still trying to figure out my strategy..i do reasonably ok when i attempt single questions of any type but my complete sec 2 mock scores tell a different story altogether...hopefully i'll solve the puzzle

ekdum mera story bata rahe ho....especially the 'getting stuck with LRs' part....

I was just pondering over how to clear the cut, lets say 95%ti. 48-52 marks will suffice for that. Giving the nature of CAT LRs 9/9 is a possible scenario unlike mocks. Now out of 5-6 PJ/PCz if one can get around 4-5 correct it corresponds to 11-14 marks. So at-least 38-40 marks on card. I will prefer attempting 2Rcs as when I am attempting 3Rcs I am screwing my accuracy. Out of 6 attempts even 4 are correct 10 marks once again can be pocketed.
So by this 48-50 marks is looking like a possible score.
I am never sure of SC questions so FIB is my best bet out of the rest.
@anupam001 yr fr me its the frst section which is a prob....its just doesn seems to b working out at all...sometym i use to get panic(esp if I m nt able to do lets say frst 4-5 questn) or sometym bump into a speed breaker questn nd spend a lot f tym on it,nd miss out on easy ones....:(
Somehow thngs r nt the way it shud hv been....I hope i figure out the ryt strategy fr myslf b4 CAT.....

the thing with sec 1 is that mocks are usually a notch higher so you find a lot of speed breakers with less sitters but it all changes in real cat where the questions will be a lot easier with 4-5 speed breakers...i would suggest covering all the basics and try completing all the quant DI sectionals from time.
@anupam001 lets hope tht CAT will get a notch lower in section 1 then our mocks....bt VA is def gng to b higher then mocks (from my exp f CAT 2k11)...wat i alwaz believe is accuracy is the key in this section....its bttr to do 3-4 less questn nd use tht tym to analyze the RCs, PJ, PC to avoid any mistake.....
@anupam001 I join you in the barbaadi.. 63+46, with 46 in VA! VA mein pura pel diya maine paper, aur 11 galat pakda diye scorecard ne. 
120 ka paper tha.

koi nahi ho jaata hai kabhi kabhi...solutions dekhte hain...QA to theek hai tera aur VA almost har baar theek hota hi to 1304 me fod dena
1305-91
very easy mock...cudnt solve 1 LR nd 1 DI set even after devoting good time...bad sectionals...bad scores....disasterous accuracy...nthng good abt d mock...nt xpctng more den 80 percentile...
