Hello CAT 2023 candidates,
The CAT exam 2023 for MBA admissions 2024 –2026 will be held on November 26. In this CAT 2023 60-day preparation guide series of Careers360, we will discuss the strategies for day 30 that can help you prepare well and crack the CAT entrance test 2023.
This article mainly focuses on topics: Problems on Trains, Relative speed aptitude questions, Boat stream questions, Decision making questions part 2, and direct and indirect VARC questions. From this article, students will be able to cover a lot of different topics for students to learn and understand the concepts and various different strategies of direct and indirect Mcqs type questions.
Part-1: Quantitative Aptitude for CAT exam
Important Concept/Formula Used in relative speed aptitude questions and problems on trains
Problems on trains: Trains (Length L1 and L2) Approaching each other with velocity v1 and v2.
Time taken to Cross each other = (L1+L2)/(v1+v2)
Trains (Length L1 and L2) moving in the same direction with velocities v1 and v2. (v1 > v2)
Time taken to overtake = (L1+L2)/(V1-V2)
Concept of upstream:
Speed of boat in upstream = Vu = v – u
v = speed of boat in still water
u = speed of river/flow/current
Concept of downstream
Speed of boat in downstream = Vu = v + u
CAT Exam:
Previous Year CAT Questions On Time, Speed and Distance (CAT questions on Boats and Streams)
Train Aptitude Questions
Q1. Train T leaves station X for station Y at 3 pm. Train S, travelling at three-quarters of the speed of T, leaves Y for X at 4 pm. The two trains pass each other at station Z, where the distance between X and Z is three-fifths of that between X and Y. How many hours does train T take for its journey from X to Y? [TITA: CAT 2018]
Relative Speed Aptitude Questions with Solution:
Let the total distance between X and Y = 5a, therefore the distance between X and Z = 3a & between Y and Z = 2a.
The ratio of time taken by train T and train S to reach Z from their respective Station = (3a/v: 2a/3v/4 = 9: 8) where v is the velocity of train T.
Let time taken by train T is 9y, then the time taken by train S will be 8y.
Therefore, (9y -1) = 8y
⇒ y = 1
so, time taken by train T to cover 3a = 9 hour
so, time taken by train T to cover XY (5a) = 5/3 x 9 = 15 hour
Boats and Streams Aptitude Problems
Q2. A man travels by motor boat down a river to his office and back. With the speed of the river unchanged, if he doubles the speed of his motorboat, then his total travel time gets reduced by 75%. The ratio of the original speed of the motor boat to the speed of the river is [CAT 2017]
6: 2
7: 2
25: 3
3: 2
Boat and Stream Questions With Solution: [B]
Let the speed of the boat in still water and the speed of the river be v and u respectively. D is the width of the river.
So, D/v+u+ D/v-u = Time taken (with original speed of motor boat)
and D/2v+u+ D/2v-u = Time taken (with the double speed of motor boat)
According to the question, travel time is reduced by 75% which means new time is ¼ of old time.
So, 4D/2v+u+ 4D/2v-u= D/v+u+ D/v-u
On solving, we get v: u = 7: 2
CAT entrance exam: Prerequisite for quantitative aptitude for CAT questions:
Ratios, Proportion and variations
Basics of Time, Speed and distance
CAT Exam Important Topic: Strategy to Prepare “Basics of Time, speed and Distance (Trains and Boats)” and problems on trains
a km/hr= (a x 5/18) m/s
Time taken by a train of length L to cross a man or pole is equal to L/v.
Time taken by a train of length L to cross a stationary object of length x is equal to (L + x)/v.
If the two objects start from A and B with speeds u and v respectively, and after crossing each other take a and b hours to reach B and A respectively, then u: v = √b: √a.
Divide questions topic-wise and practice different problems based on CAT Previous years questions.

Hii There,
Commencing your CAT preparation involves building a solid foundation in fundamental concepts. This emphasis is particularly essential for quant, while it's relatively less crucial for VARC, DI, and LR, where consistent practice from the outset is more beneficial.
To kickstart your preparation, your first step should be to attempt a CAT mock test. Take this mock test right at the beginning of your preparation journey. It will provide an initial assessment of your current proficiency level and help gauge the amount of effort required to reach your target percentile.
Following this, set a goal to dedicate 10 days to thoroughly cover the fundamentals of Quantitative Aptitude. You can achieve this by studying from a reputable Quantitative Aptitude book or by utilizing study materials provided by a well-known coaching institute. Covering the basics entails working through the solved examples in the chosen resource.
I hope this answer your question.
Thanks

Hello Praneeth,
I am also appearing for the cat examination this year. As far as your query is concerned I would suggest you to right your father's name(which is starting with S) in the middle if it is also mentioned in your aadhar card and pan card .

Note :-
Keep in mind that your name in the application form should match with what is mentioned in your aadhar card /pan card .

Being a VIT student, I would strongly recommend you against it! Now I not at all mean it is a bad college, no it isn't it indeed is a very good college, and it has provided me with ample of opportunities. It does have a respectable reputation, excellent infrastructure, and well qualified faculty.
However at the same time, you have an 5.5K rank in mains, with that type of rank you have a very good shot at getting CSE in top NITs and IIITs, and honestly VIT pales in comparison to them, even if it is CAT 1 Vellore campus CSE core.
VIT is good but it can be termed better than IIIT Bangalore or MNIT Jaipur( both of which are well within your reach)? Well my answer to that would be a definite NO!
I would go as far as recommending my juniors to get into DAIICT over VIT, the point I am trying to make is simple, and that is if you have under 10K JEE rank, you don't need to consider VIT as an option, in any category or course whatsoever...
To get a better idea on which colleges you can get at that rank you can use following predictor
