Copied from my objection to DM question regarding which of the following would be most likely to get affluent parents to accept school policy. I believe the correct answer for this question should be Option 1 - Accept the suggestion of affluent parents to start a separate shift for the poor students. The question clearly asks which of the following is most likely to get the affluent parents to accept the school's policy. It is directly mentioned in the passage "They wanted the trust to either start a separate shift for such children or remove them from the school since they are supporting them." It is worth noting that the question clearly asks for the most likely solution that will be accepted (and not the most appropriate, which would bring a moral or ethical dimension to the question). Further, it does not violate the school policy as mentioned in the question which "provides quality education to many needy students from low income neighborhood for free". Starting a separate shift does not violate the language of the policy answer. While the official correct answer "share the fact, that the government instituted school ranking, places 25% weight to policies similar to the school's" is also an appropriate response which could get the affluent parents on board the school's policy, I feel my suggested option is even more likely to be accepted by said affluent parents. Comments ?
Chances of XLRI BM conversion? VA-13.25 DM-13.5 QA-15.25 OA-41.6 GK-16 Xth- 95 XII-86 Grad- 80 Work ex- 17months General engineer male...
My objection:
Question id: 489153282
Which of the following statements is definitely true according to the passage?
1. When they look at a frowning person, the goats are sad.
2. When they look at a smiling person, goats run towards him.
3. When they look at a straight-faced person, goats remain passive. ( My chosen answer)
4. When they look at a frowning person, goats are afraid of him.
5. When they look at a smiling person, the goats are happy. (XAT official answer)
My response: option 3. When they look at a straight-faced person, goats remain passive.
Evidence:
According to the given information, "goats have no desire to interact with people who come off as angry or upset, and that they’re much more attracted to those with big smiles plastered across their faces."
Hence, We understand that a straight face doesn’t induce any reaction on the goat , it remains inactive and unaffected whereas a happy face does affect the goat which has been implied .
Option 5 (xat correct answer) talks about the emotional response of the goat but it's far fetched, on the basis of the given information, to say that it induces happiness in the goat though we can be certain that a smiling human does affect the goat in some way. hence it's logical to infer that When they look at a straight-faced person, they don't exhibit any behavior and remain passive.
I got a score of 29.5.
10+ marks in all the 3 sections.
Do I stand a chance for a call from XLRI BM or HR?
Hi Guys, According to cracku, my scores are: Verbal : 15 DM : 11 Quant : 12 OA: 37.7 My rank according to Cracku is 681 What are my chances of getting a call for BM ?
Just my two cents, but seeing the imbalance in 30-42 range in QA and DM scores (most scores in the CrackU list above 42 are pretty balance sectionally), I feel that change in cutoffs in Quants and DM will be inversely related ie Only one will rise by 1-3 marks. What do you guys think?
- Disagree
- Agree

Is it even possible to convert the call if I just manage to cross the cutoff? With 92/83/73 % in 10/12/grad and a work ex of 11 months?
- Difficult
- Yes
- No

According to CrackU toppers list, my rank is 1237 with a score of 34.65. Do I stand a chance for conversion(BM) if I get a call with that score?
The list is scary this time.
Looks like this time whoever set the DM paper had a low level of empathy and ethics as some of the answers go more for practicality and profit than ethics and empathy. What do you think? 😄
Amongst the scores in cracku list, what do you feel about the number of faculties of various coaching institutes above 40 scores? maybe the imbalance of sectionals is due to this factor? Most of the faculty of my centre gave xat.
VA : 10, DM : 14.75, QA : 11.95, OA : 36.7 What percentile can i expect with this score?
I don't think there will be a change in VA and DM answers. Highly subjective and what will they tell to those whose answers were correct earlier? That our reasoning matched with yiu but due to a few hundred objections we have decided that we may have been wrong. Has there been an instance where there were any changes in VA/DM Questions in any exam?
VA --- 6.08. Expected Percentile ?
(Sorry for the last post, calculated wrongly there)
- 40-50

In this era of cow vigilantism ..save tiger...atleast goat became the focus of discussion..thanks to xat paper setters!
