Will IIM A Selection Criteria Changes Make Admission Easier?

There are some changes in the IIM Ahmedabad selection process this year, and I’m curious about how CAT 2026 aspirants are looking at them.

For different profiles, the impact could be quite different. Someone with strong academics may look at these changes differently from someone relying mainly on a high CAT percentile.

Do you think the IIM Ahmedabad selection criteria changes will make getting a call easier or tougher?

When only the travel time is taken, the average speed of a train is 54 km per hour, but when the stopping time is also taken, the average speed becomes 45 km per hour. For how many minutes per hour does the train stop?

The Hotel Leela in Goa has two wings, the East wing and the West wing. Some East wing rooms, but not all, have an ocean view. All the West wing rooms have a harbour view. The charges for all the rooms are the same, except: (i) There is an extra charge for all harbour view rooms on or above the third floor. (ii) There is an extra charge for all ocean view rooms, except those without a balcony. (iii) Some harbour view rooms on the first two floors and some East wing rooms without an ocean view have kitchen facilities, for which there is an extra charge. (iv) Only the ocean view and the harbour view rooms have balconies. 1. A guest can avoid an extra charge by requesting: (a) a West wing room on one of the first two floors (b) a West wing room on the fourth floor without a balcony (c) an East wing room without an ocean view (d) an East wing room without a balcony

VARC

Hi, I've been consistently scoring low in varc. My marks have dropped from 25s to 15s now. Ive been doing a lot of things like reading Articles daily, practicing previous year passages. Tried active reading also as ma'am has suggested. But my mock scores always be around same. After each varc mock/sectional. I try to solve the same set again and seem to get correct(not always) Ive tried to deeply categorize my mistakes (if am selecting - broad, narrow, out of scope, tone change etc)Still no improvement . But i feel i understand the video solution. Pls help, if anyone has any solution.

VARC HELP NEEDED !!

I went from consistently score 30+ marks in first 5 Dash cat mocks to -4 in dash cat 6 and 14 in dash cat 7.
I have not changed my strategy of attempting all questions which got me consistently score 30+ marks , daily 30-40 mins reading along with VARC sectional every alternate day.

Insecure about my profile

Hello, I'm general non engineer male bsc bio.
My profile is 84/86/60, no work experience. I started my preparation mainly from August and currently I'm at a very good pace, and I've also completed a lot of things, I'm also starting taking mocks from the upcoming week, like I'm giving my 100% all the day, but my issue is will I get even shortlisted? My profile s so bad, what can I do more than just studying. Like I want to go the best of the business schools, but please tell me is that possible with this kind of profile and academics.

10th marks

I did my 10th from Tamil nadu state board. As it was Covid year, we were given all pass as the results— no marks. Cat form, thankfully, had the provision to enter this. But how will this be treated in IIMs calculating CS for interviews and shortlisting. Also during placements
