This thread is to post score, percentile, doubts, queries, and discuss mock taking strategies for IMS SIMCAT 16 [2020].
OA - 114
VARC - 13 (16A/7C) - Complete disaster. Couldnt focus due to background noise.
DILR - 53 (22A/18C) - Fumbled up an easy 60+ scoring oppurtunity
QA - 48 (22A/17C)
OA - 141
VARC - 31 (21A/12C) - Too close options, should have attempted less
DILR - 54 (18A/18C) - An unexpectedly good score coming after a string of 20-30 scores
QA - 56 (20A/19C) - Easy section
OA - 135 VARC -31 DILR - 48 QUANT - 56 Chalo confidence utha, though options were close in VARC , I played on accuracy. DILR , first time this much I scored , "yeh bhi theek hai moment" QA - fairly easy, anyone can capitalise.
43 (22/16) 63 (22/21) 60 (20/20) 166
VARC-23 DILR-45 QA-41 OA-109 VARC:"Not Today"😐 Show goes on
VA 48 18/24 DILR 64 22/24 QA 60 20/20 OA 172.
VARC: 10 (22A/7C)
DILR: 60 (20A/20C)
QA: 57(20A/19C)
OA: 127
VARC (19A/15C)- 43 : Options were TOO close and RCs were tough to read, imo
DILR (20A/20C)- 60 : Career best :)
QA (11A/10C)- 29 : With only 3 weeks left still cannot increase my attempts.
OA (50A/45C)- 132 : DILR was indeed a saviour !!
VARC - 04 ( 14A/4C) ..pretty much sums up my aversion for Biological passages
DILR - 30 (10A/10C) could not attempt that selection set..ughh..😖😖
QA - 36 (12A/12C) umm..ok
OA - 70 (36A/26C) ..VARC the section in which i always score the most..has brutally wounded me today. GOD HELP ME !!
VARC-10(Ruined my day)
DILR-40
QA-44
OA-94
VARC - 37
DILR - 54
QA - 48
OA - 139
VARC: 42(16C/24A)
DILR: 72(24C/24A)
QA: 53(18C/20A)
OA: 167
18 (I have become NUMB regarding the score of this section ....)
50 (3 W need to see where )
53 (10 marks short :( )
OA - 121 (I was thinkink okayish ; Until I scrolled the thread to se the SCORES)
48/48/47 - 143
No I was not trying to score 48 in all the three sections. Having said that, 1 less wrong attempt in QA wouldn't have hurt!
38/63/56 OA: 157 Not satisfied with quants
varc 16 (17a,7c)
dilr 48 (18a,16c)
quant 50 (19a, 17c) not sure when will i achieve my best.
oa : 114 awaiting an even lower percentile than previous simcat
VARC 27(10C/13A)
DILR 20(8C/16A)
QA 28(10C/12A)
Overall 75(28C/41A)
Guys need some serious suggestion regarding DILR.
I am making mistake of interpreting sets from last 2 simcats and I think I have repeated same thing in this test as well.
How can I improve that? Please help
VARC-29, the passages were really boring and hard to read. The section that usually contributes >50% to my total score is now my lowest xD DILR-50, easiest ever Quant-33, highest ever for me, honestly feels more satisfying than a 50 in DILR OA-112, was this a super easy paper compared to CAT level? This score is a HUGE improvement for me.

I think VARC was difficult majorly because it was filled with "EXCEPT" kind of questions combined with close options.
