🐈 CAT Exam 2020-21 Preparation, Exam Dates, Results & Discussion – PaGaLGuY (Part 1)

Ā 10th 80 12th 58 grad 72(non engineer) expecting 97+ percentile nc obc which colleges do i have a realistic chance to convertĀ 

Recently I have been getting a lot of queries regarding the effect of difficulty level difference of Slot 1 and Slot 2 in CAT 2016. It is apparent that the number of attempts in Slot 2 is less as compared to Slot 1. So how does it fare out in percentile calculations?


I decided to dig into the Equipercentile Method of Normalisation followed by CAT and major examinations like MHCET, IBPS, etc.


Summary of the process is as follows:


1. For each slot (1 and 2), scaled scores will be calculated by giving equivalent scaling for each section.


2. Then in each slot (1 and 2), percentiles will be calculated within each slot. (Assuming each slot had 1 lac exam takers, your percentile will be calculated from those 1 lac exam takers). So it does not matter if your slot was easy or difficult.


3. Each percentile of each slot will be mapped to each other. Like scaled score of the 100th percentile of each slot will be mapped to each other. Similarly, 95th percentile of each slot will be mapped to each other.


So ultimately it is your performance in your slot that matters. Commenting on the difficulty level of others slot is not warranted. It does not matter if the paper was easy or difficult or moderate. If it was difficult, it was difficult for all people in your slot.

Hello Seniors :)

Thanks in advance....

Has anyone applied for jbims yet? Are they scrapping the domicile quota? What is the procedure for applying for jbims? Thanks in advance :)

I'm expecting a raw score of 125-135. How much percentile can I expect ? (I'm expecting it to be between 90-93. But that won't fetch me into any of the iims. I already have 2 years of experience. Shall I wait for another year and give it a shot again ? Is it worth waiting for one more year ?

They told that website will be down for maintainence from 9PM to 5 AM. They never told it will be updated to TCSion website after that. Hitting CAT website takes you to the TCSion page. Can somebody clarify what is going on?

Ā As per 2011 census, which is the second most urbanized State in India (in percentage terms)?

Based on previous trends, are any GD/PI sessions scheduled in January'17? Especially, SP Jain profile based call? Not that I expect one. Just have a lot of travel plans:)

Thanks in advance folks!

Just for the sake of improvement


CAT 2016 slot 2 RC passage on Durand Line


There Was a question on the word that bestĀ describes the agreement.


Options were mediation, arbitration, bargaining and (I think) negotiation.


I marked bargaining since it involved money and was an agreement not a discussion.


Any thoughts?
