[2020] IMS SIMCAT 16 Self-Proctored (6th Nov - 10th Nov)

VARC: 37 (14C6W)

LRDI: 24 (9C4W) No clue where those 4Ws are :)

QA: 43 (15C2W)

OA: 104

Lol I can not believe the average LRDI score here is double mine. Absolutely ...... up the paper, I see. QA is pretty abysmal too considering how easy the paper was. Those 2Ws cost me big  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 


VARC: 21 (17A9C) : This Accuracy  -__-  When are you gonna improve?? :/

LRDI: 51 (18A/17C) Oh this was such a breeze. Finally stopped f-ing around my sets.

QA: 24 (11A/9C) : Seeing the high 40s and 50s in the thread i guess my QA sucks big time. FML.


OA: 97 (46A/35C) 

Still couldn't score a 100+, even though this is the highest of the new pattern i scored.


Seeing the scores in the thread is making me feel that this is gonna fetch me only a 88-90%ile range.

VARC: 21 (17A9C) : You'll never improve :( LRDI: 54 (24A/19C) Easiest LRDI ever(considering I'm strong in LR) QA: 40 (17A/14C) : Could have scored more. OA: 115 (58A/42C) Any comments on VARC for this mock? What difficulty level can we expect from actual CAT this year? These mocks are killing all the confidence for VARC section.

 24 68 52 144 

Verbal:- 19 DILR:- 44 QA:- 56 I won't blame myself too much for this VA score, It was clear to me during the paper itself k Verbal mere level k bahar he.

OA 99


VARC 15 :( 

DILR felt like maybe the easiest of the recent mocks or Cat-level ka!


OVERALL 141


VARC 36 (18A/13C) - difficult but as tricky as CAT'19 I feel

LRDI 48 (16A/16C) - spent the last 8 minutes on the ice cream set but got no answer, should have instead selected the number of books set.

QA 57 (19A/19C) - one or two more questions could have been done, but satisfied nevertheless

VARC - 36 (20A/14C) (marks aa gaye but RC kuch samjh nhi aaya) LRDI - 51 (18A/17C) (easy one) QA - 39 (13A/13C) (slow speed max pro) OA - 126 (51A/44C)


VARC- (12A/10C) -28 tried solving only RC.

LRDI- (14A/14C) - 42 

QA - 36 . wasted too much time in two easy questions earlier. There were some easy questions in the end that I could have attempted. 


OA - 106 . 

Was this mock at CAT level. If so then what percentile I should expect at this score in CAT? 

 VARC -13 (14A/ 6 C)

LRDI - 41 (15A/14C)   

QA - 51 (19A/17 C)

OA - 105

Can someone give explanation for Question 9 (rattle snake vala) I marked option 4 ,(The rattlesnake population began living in isolated ,but favourable conditions) Answer is 3

VA & RC - 40 (99.05) - Had to do well after what happened in AIMCAT lol

Quant - 39 (85.66) - This hurts. :( 

OA -135 (99.24)

Pls simcat 15 ki tarah ek shot me %ile de dena in sim 17

When will SIMCAT 17 start?


Can someone tell me the logic of Q16 VARC? I marked Option D while IMS' answer shows option C (Natural product acting as a source of medicine of thousands of years). How can option C be correct because if Natural products have been used for thousands of years then certainly companies should have jumped on the bandwagon earlier but imo they are doing it now because of the increased traction towards alternative medicines (Option D).

A question for aspirants who used to attempt all 34 Ques of VARC in 1 hour section:

Are you still able to attempt the paper in its enitrety Or you are leaving some questions and focusing on accuracy for the lost questions.


I was comfortable with 34-60min pattern, in this pattern I am constantly running out of time which is badly impacting my score.  Please provide some insights on how you guys are tackling this,

TIA
