Ques. Did anyone get a very good percentile in CAT even after he was not able to clear the cut off of exams like IIFT and NMAT?

● Top Answer By Turja Das on 13 Dec 21

Yes, there are many students who are unable to clear IIFT but do well in CAT. The broad sections of IIFT are the same as CAT, except that they have the additional General Knowledge section.  The weightage for the GK section is low. Also the type of questions in VARC and DILR is different. VARC: only 16 out of 35 Questions are Reading Comprehension. DILR: More Data Interpretation questions are present than Logical Reasoning. Out of a 300 mark paper only 30 marks is for GK which is 10% weightage. The cut offs for GK is also low, around 5 marks, which technically is 2 correct questions. Overall cut off for IIFT was 138 marks in a 2 hour paper whereas for CAT was 76 marks for 95 percentile. Therefore, IIFT is comparatively easier than CAT. NMAT is like the GMAT exam. You cannot go back to a question. You need to complete a section in a limited time. Here strategy is important. Skip the questions you do not know the answer to, because wasting time for that is not useful. The question type of NMAT has a specific pattern. You have 3 RCs, a few questions on Probability in the Quant section and one or more sets of Sequential Output tracing sets in Logic....Read more

Ques. What is scaling in NMAT? If I give an exam in the last few days how much? I have to score for NMIMS Mumbai. Will scaling affect the score in the last few days?

● Top Answer By Ashwin Jog on 14 Mar 23

If you are planning to take the NMAT exam, you might find it interesting that the exam is conducted in a unique way. Despite being driven by the profit motive, the exam's multiple windows, multiple slots, and multiple combinations of questions make it next to impossible to game the test. The exam does not give you the time to think about which questions to do, nor is it needed. During the exam, you will have to decide whether to attempt a question or skip it within a few seconds. If you decide to attempt it, you should try to solve it as quickly as possible. If you cannot solve it after trying, mark a random option and move on to the next question. There is no question palette, so you will not know how many questions you've attempted properly unless you're keeping count mentally. This might be difficult during the test due to time constraints. Scaling and normalization are used to ensure a uniform difficulty level for all test takers and evaluate them accordingly. Therefore, the premise that the last few days will negatively affect the score seems to be flawed. Moreover, there is no need to worry too much about the cutoffs for NMIMS Mumbai. It is better to try to maximize your score regardless of the cutoffs or scaling. If you are interested in pursuing a management program, you might want to consider NMIMS Mumbai. However, keep in mind that the cutoffs for this institute vary and can be difficult to predict accurately. It is also important to note that scoring above the cutoffs is not a guarantee for admission, as there is a lot of competition for a limited number of seats. If you want to enhance your chances of getting into a top-notch B-school, you may want to consider XLRI, which is particularly famous for finance. Gaining industry experience and taking up a finance course like CFA or FRM can also help you become eligible for the Indian School of Business and other world-renowned colleges. Remember that admission to a B-school is a combination of factors, including academic performance, aptitude, and personality, so focus on developing a well-rounded profile....Read more
