DOWNLOAD 50 MUST DO DI/LR QUESTIONS BASED ON PREVIOUS CAT AND NEW CAT -2015 PATTERN



We are back with some new set of quality questions on LR/DI  .But before that  I am going to discuss with you the correct strategy of attempting questions in LR/DI section.As as cat aspirant you will be aware that the LR/DI will be of a separate section which need to be solved within stipulated time of 60 minutes .i.e. 32 questions in 60 minutes.

The good thing about the new pattern is that you need not worry about individual cutoff ,given 60 minutes you all will definitely cross sectional cutoff.But the negative side is that if you are good in one section and complete that section like verbal before 60 minutes.Still ,you will not be able to use this extra time in other  sections.

I have observed that students usually take more time in solving LR questions and since they cannot make up for this extra time by saving time in other sections this year ,they need to work hard and practice more .Trust me this section will be the game changer .

As predicted quant is expected to be easy this year and verbal a level higher but DI/LR will remain on the higher side , DI itself will be logical based with presence of onscreen calculator.

So make yourself acquainted with every type of questions and the type of strategy you adopt in exam like WHEN TO JUMP TO NEXT SET ,WHAT TYPE QUESTION TO ATTEMPT IN LR/DI ,WHAT QUESTIONS TO SKIP IN PAPERS  read my next article "APPROACH TO ADOPT WHILE SOLVING LR/DI IN CAT ACTUAL PAPER". Till then ,don't forget to download exercise 2 of 50 MUST DO LR/DI questions.

DOWNLOAD 50 MUST SOLVE QUALITY QUESTIONS/SOLUTIONS ON DATA INTERPRETATION AND LOGICAL REASONING BASED ON NEW CAT PATTERN PART -1


As per the new CAT-2015 pattern, there is going to be a separate section on LR/DI .This section is going to consist of 32 questions which should be solved within a time limit of 1 hour.During my 11 years of teaching experience , I have  observed that the LR/DI section can make or break your IIMs dream. During initial preparation, students perform well but the problem starts when the MOCK kicks in :


Problems Faced: 

  •  Unable to solve problems within time limits.
  • Faced with mixed problem set ( initially they have solved question topic wise like  arrangement,ranking but what they face in actual cat and mocks are a set of  mixed type 
  •  Not getting the logic involved in the problem .
  •  Taking too much time in calculation.

How to improve the Data Interpretation and logical reasoning for cat by overcoming these difficulties:

  •  I would strongly recommend students to go through previous year CAT papers, for this is the best question bank of quality questions and some or the other concepts do get repeated in CAT.
  • Analyse your mistakes by later comparing your answers with the solutions.
  • Make proper revision notes :Student usually ignore this part ,they just keep on practising without preparing any notes for last minute revision  (I am going to write a separate article on this one as it requires significant attention)
  • Practising Mixed problem set: Below I  am providing a mixed set of questions for both LR and DI which are similar to CAT new pattern and have some of the best Data Sufficiency  questions .Please go through them meticulously and for solution please go through my next article:
