can anyone provide me AImcats videos (solution videos) link? TIA
1. The problem is not with the author's personality (or appearance), it's with the readers and critics who pay too much attention to it.
A. Of course, people have preferences.
B. What the author accomplishes, or doesn't, outside of the book is fine for the gossip pages, but it doesn't merit mentioning in a book review.
C. What matters is the book, and the book has to stand on its own merit.
D. Focusing on a writer for not "humping his ego" has the same effect as focusing on writers who are outspoken, or attractive; they're two sides of the same coin.
6. It's perfectly legitimate, and normal, for different people to react differently to an author's work, but one should remember that reading is a subjective experience.
Arrange in Order A,B,C,D.(Taking 1 and 6 as first and last sentence)
The answer is DCBA. I got DBCA.
Can someone please explain?
Arrange in Order.
Do provide explanation too. Thanks in advance :)
1. The EU and the European Aviation Safety Agency are now considering the introduction of a similar rule.
2. It underscores the fragility of the human factor which is truly the critical element in the rigorous processes required for aviation.
3. Significantly, last year's mysterious Malaysia Airlines MH 370's disappearance also involved a captain who may have been disturbed.
4. The Lubitz issue showed that the annual medical examination of pilots done under strict European Union regulations can fail to identify psychological problems such as depression.
5. Had the EU implemented a 'two-person' cockpit rule, such as in the U.S., which requires two crew members to be present in the cockpit always; this act of mass murder could have been stopped.
I have full version IMS online test series . I am not preparing for CAT this year.If anyone needs, ping me
anyone wants ims mocks on discount?
From where one can prepare for phrasal verbs? I tried TIME booklet that too easy! No questions come from there
Hello guys can you please help me with how to decide tone of the passage analytical/descriptive/narrative/argumentive ? I mostly get them wrong . Any serious advice ?
Anyone gave last SAMCAT? Please help! Stuck at a RC.
Last minute tips for CAT 2017:1. Take Mock Test at the exact time slot on your admit card.2. Try focusing on stuff one by one and avoid multitasking.3. Forget all night studying, a good night's sleep is key to doing well in exam. 4. Stay positive and keep yourself motivated. 5. Trust yourself. You know more than you think you do.
Reposting my brief article from other thread.
Finally, the D-Day is here.
The day that will be the culmination of all the effort put through those late nights and early mornings. Its the day you have been waiting for since the past year, or maybe more. I know you'll all make sure it's worth the wait.
A few pointers, in case you find it useful:
1. MOST IMPORTANT: Please please make sure that you are well rested. It sounds easy, but trust me, many of you won't be able to sleep the night before. Happened with me. And a lot of others. I wasn't able to sleep for a minute before the exam. Trust me when I say this, your mind will be cluttered with thousands of thoughts on the night before exam. You'll have to make sure you get ample sleep.
2. The hardest part of the preparation is over. Believe me, you couldn't have been better prepared, contrary to what most of you may be thinking right now. You may choose to chill or to revise some basic formulae tomorrow. Totally up to you. Just do whatever your gut tells you to do.
3. A lot of you might be thinking of giving up right now and trying again next year. I would quote someone for you: "You have not come this far to come only this far". Attitude is what matters right now.
4. There might be many instances during the exam when you may feel like giving up. DO NOT GIVE UP. I repeat, DO NOT GIVE UP.!! Trust me, CAT gives you atleast 2-3 attempts to make a comeback. The battle is actually not lost till you leave that room after 3 hours. My strongest section, VA was bombed terribly as I was sleep deprived. But I somehow managed to perform decently in the other 2 sections.
5. Lastly, just keep in mind the reason why you embarked upon this journey. Keep it in mind always. It will give you that extra push that you will definitely need in the exam. If you are feeling short on motivation, you might watch a short youtube video: Time for War
ALL THE BEST CHAMPIONS.!!
GIVE IT ALL YOU HAVE.!!
Trust me, you'll be glad you embarked on this journey.
Waiting for you on the other side...

Any sources for good quality RC's useful for CAT 2018 and not from any training institutes or Arun Sharma? What are other sources for good content?
Each piece, or part, of the whole of nature is always merely an approximation to the complete truth, or the complete truth so far as we know it. In fact, everything we know is only some kind of approximation, because we know that we do not know all the laws as yet. Therefore, things must be learned only to be unlearned again or, more likely, to be corrected. The principle of science, the definition, almost, is the following: The test of all knowledge is experiment. Experiment is the sole judge of scientific "truth." But what is the source of knowledge? Where do the laws that are to be tested come from? Experiment, itself, helps to produce these laws, in the sense that it gives us hints. But also needed is imagination to create from these hints the great generalizations—to guess at the wonderful, simple, but very strange patterns beneath them all, and then to experiment to check again whether we have made the right guess. This imagining process is so difficult that there is a division of labour in physics: there are theoretical physicists who imagine, deduce, and guess at new laws, but do not experiment; and then there are experimental physicists who experiment, imagine, deduce, and guess. We said that the laws of nature are approximate: that we first find the "wrong" ones, and then we find the "right" ones. Now, how can an experiment be "wrong"? First, in a trivial way: the apparatus can be faulty and you did not notice. But these things are easily fixed and checked back and forth. So without snatching at such minor things, how can the results of an experiment be wrong? Only by being inaccurate. For example, the mass of an object never seems to change; a spinning top has the same weight as a still one. So a "law" was invented: mass is constant, independent of speed. That "law" is now found to be incorrect. Mass is found to increase with velocity, but appreciable increase requires velocities near that of light. A true law is: if an object moves with a speed of less than one hundred miles a second the mass is constant to within one part in a million. In some such approximate form this is a correct law. So in practice one might think that the new law makes no significant difference. Well, yes and no. For ordinary speeds we can certainly forget it and use the simple constant mass law as a good approximation. But for high speeds we are wrong, and the higher the speed, the more wrong we are. Finally, and most interesting, philosophically we are completely wrong with the approximate law. Our entire picture of the world has to be altered even though the mass changes only by a little bit. This is a very peculiar thing about the philosophy, or the ideas, behind the laws. Even a very small effect sometimes requires profound changes to our ideas. 24.
Which of the following options is DEFINITELY NOT an approximation to the complete truth?
A. I know that I know.
B. I know that I do not know.
C. I know what I know.
D. I know what I do not know.
E. I know that others do not know.
XAT SOLUTION: D A, B, C and E can be known with some errors. i.e., in each of the four options there is an approximation. In option D there is no way somebody can know what he/she doesn’t know. This is an impossible situation. Example: Somebody says “I do not know quantum mechanics.” But he/she cannot say what quantum mechanics is and what in quantum mechanics he/she does not know. Hence option D is the correct answer.
MY TAKE: But, option B should be the answer, as one definitely knows that he doesn’t know many things and even if he does, know it as approximation. Option D means I know which things I do not know, which is approximation as I cannot know all the things unknown to me. The above solution has construed this statement as a combo of 2 statements: ‘I know x’ and ‘I don’t know x’, which is obviously a contradiction. Kindly clarify. This is a xat 2016 question.
