What is the level of sectional tests? Is it easier than the actual CAT?

I am giving 2 sectional everyday of DILR & QA both. I think level is good not so high but pretty doable. Also arithmetic questions are like lengthy as we get in actual exam.

I am not able to score good in Quants section considering my Humanities background. Now when just one month is left this is giving me a lot of anxiety that i am not even able to sit and study. Anyone please guide me what should i do now?

Do worry and fill cat 2024 form.

No need to panic, last year i was in the same situation then i simply gave a good amount of full mocks and sectionals. and after that i upsolved the mock and most importantly i saw the method in the solution given. Also attempt strategy matters a lot, one should know which question to leave........... . that way i was abe to score a decent 29marks in Quants. Don't panic CAT is not today.

Let a and b be natural numbers. If a²+ab+a=14 and b²+ab+b=28, then(2a+b) equals?

a(a+b+1)=14 ...i b(a+b+1)=28 ...ii ii/i: b/a=2 let a=x, b=2x x(x+2x+1)=14 x=2,-7/3 for natural number x=a=2, b=4

a=2 and b= 4so answer will be 8

i am able to score 15 in varc and sometimes my score is 7 or 8 even i analkyze it i get the the way but the score is not increasing need help

Some tips: 1) Read slowly and try to understand the passage. Try to make a story in your mind when you are reading the passage. 2) VARC has minimum 2 factual RC's , try to attempt those, for now don't attempt inference based / psychological RCs. 3)Practice para-jumbles and Odd One Out. These questions dont have negative marking. I would suggest you to take full 40 mins to solve only 2 RC passages and once you get comfortable then move ahead and solve 3 RCs. Best of Luck.

How do I increase accuracy in VARC.?

One thing that helped me, particularly in RC was to read slowly, not rushing through, and Not looking at time too frequently, especially while reading an RC which is a good distraction. Applying all these increased my accuracy from 60-70% range to 85%+

I am struggling with Quants so much even if i've constricted my syllabus to Arithmetics and Algebra. I've practiced a lot and given many sectionals yet my marks are not scaling even on familiar questions. What should i do to improve now that only 1 month is left?

Solving previous year questions and taking sectionals would definitely help you in that area, given u are following a schedule religiously. Cheer up man, give it ur all this one month, you got this :)

I am able to score 30-40 in VARC, one set in LRDI and 5-6 questions correctly in QA, how should i approach mocks in next 30 days.

Hi Aditi, currently for VARC, I try to solve 2 RC's from the topics is am comfortable with and then i move to Verbal ability and try to score maximum. I am more comfortable with para jumbles than para summary so i try getting maximum out of those. After this i move to third RC where my focus is to get most out of it instead of just trying to finish the RC and attempting all questions

Hi Aaditya, while solving para jumbles what i look for is connecting words which helps me in relating statements with one another. Later on it's the practice. Same thing works for me when i am solving odd one out. It is similar to solving para jumbles. Hope this helps.
