CAT 2008 Solutions  

The CAT 2008 exam was held all across the country today. You can get CAT 2008 Solutions, answer key, detailed analysis right here on a single page. Check them out below.

The first impressions from Career Launcher are out :

Overall, the CAT’08 paper was of a moderate difficulty level. The paper was more balanced than previous years, primarily because of more choices in the English section. There have been an increase in the total number of questions - from 75 to 90, with English section accounting for 40 questions (an increase of 15 from last year) and Quant and DI having 25 questions each.

The Quant section was less difficult than last two years, though not in an absolute sense.

DI, however, proved to be a tougher nut to crack this time around.

The English section, with more choices, was easier to handle.

Expected cut-offs:

Quant: 30-32
VA: 46-48
DI: 28-30

Overall: 125+

First impression from T.I.M.E :

  • QA was similar to CAT07 but of a higher difficulty level. This section had fewer questions on Arithmetic. Cutoff -> 18 ± 2
  • L & DI was of a similar level of difficulty as CAT07. This was a classical DI paper with sets on DI as well as Logic puzzles. Cutoff-> 32 ± 2
  • Verbal was less subjective than last year. Level of vocabulary was higher. Cutoff-> 42 ± 2
  • Overall cutoff - 125 ± 3

CAT 2008  

UPDATE : Check out CAT 2008 Solutions

Common Admission Test commonly know as CAT is the admission test to get into the prestigious IIM institutes of your country. The CAT 2008 is going to be held all across the country on 16th November 2008. With just a couple of days to go for the exam, I hope that all the aspirants for CAT 2008 are raring to step in to the world of IIMs.

CAT is a paper which tests your overall ability which is why not everyone is able to bell the CAT. Every year there are subtle changes to the pattern which are hard to notice at first glance. This is where some students score over the others.

Another very important aspect is time management which is what you are basically taught in coaching institutes. If you look at the course outline for CAT, it is not at all hard but requires high levels of accuracy and speed.

You might ask, why am I reminding you guys these things which are the basics? Simply because these are the basic fundas to crack the CAT and one tends to forget them. You get tips from everywhere which sometimes confuses you up. Just remember these two most basic ones and you are ready to go.

Step into the hall with confidence and a calm mind and give CAT 2008 your best shot and I am sure you will be able to come out with flying colors.

And you know where to find CAT 2008 solutions or CAT 2008 answer key along with complete analysis after the exam, right here!

The CAT 2008 results are expected to be announced on 9th January 2009.

AIEEE 2008 Counseling  

The first phase of AIEEE 2008 Counseling ie. the Online counseling will start from tomorrow. So let me first discuss a few details about it.

The online counseling is a kind of mock counseling held on the Internet where students can register themselves and then fill out there preferences of institutes/branches. You can see then how many students are above your rank for a branch/institute. This counseling is held to give the students a rough idea on what they can expect but only a few students register for it and hence you do not get a clear picture.

The choices in Form-1 that you make during the online counseling are recorded by them and are presented to you when you go for on-campus counseling, although you can change them during the on-campus counseling.

Many if you would not be knowing about Form-1 and Form 2, so let me tell more about them. Form-1 is a branch+institution form. In this form you have to choose your preferences according to branch and institution simultaneously, pretty much similar to what you do in JEE counseling. So for eg. your first preference would be CSE in IIIT Hyderabad, CSE in NIT Trichy, CSE in NIT Warangal , ECE in IIIT Hyderabad etc.

Form-2 is an institution only selection form. This form comes into the action after Form-1 processing has taken place and you have not got any branch+institution that you had mentioned in your Form-1. So if you filled Form-2 then if there is any vacant seat(dropout seat) in any of the institutions selected by you in Form-2, then you would get that institution. After that you will be required to go to that institute and they would allocate you the branch based upon vacant seat and your rank.

There would also be a second counseling against dropout seats from first counseling. Although, some institutes have opted not to take part in the second counseling, you can check them out here. Some of these institutes, if they have a few dropout seats, then they sometimes conduct separate independent counselings in August, for which you have to keep your eye on the newspapers!!

Now coming to the big question : Whether to fill Form-1 or Form-2 or both?
