CAT Mock Test Part-A
CAT Mock Test Part-A serves as a crucial practice segment designed to simulate the actual CAT exam environment. It helps aspirants evaluate their preparation level, improve time management, and understand question patterns. By attempting Part A regularly, candidates can identify strengths, pinpoint weaknesses, and refine strategies to boost overall performance in the real CAT exam.
CAT previous year question 1. The number of ways of arranging 8 persons in a row is
(permutation and combination previous year questions)
(a) 8! (b) 7! (c) 8 (d) 4
Ans: (a)
The number of ways of arranging n persons in a row is n!
CAT previous year question 2. How many 4-digit odd numbers can be formed using [0, 2, 3, 5] such that all digits to be used altogether?
(a) 256 (b) 12 (c) 8 (d) 32
Ans: (c)
Since all digits to be used together, repetition is not allowed.
For number to be odd; Unit place is either 3 or 5; So, number of ways of filling unit place is 2.
Left most place can not be 0, so number of ways to fill left most place is 2 (Since 1 digit is already used at unit place and 0 cannot be taken.)
Remaining two places can be filled in 2 x1 ways.
Therefore, total numbers to be formed = 2 x 2 x 2x 1= 8
CAT previous year question 3. How many three- digit numbers can be formed using digits {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} such that each digit can be repeated any number of times.
(a) 36 (b) 125 (c) 216 (d) 300
Solution: [c]
Each can be filled in 6 different ways.
So, total numbers formed = 6 x 6 x 6 = 216
CAT previous year question 4. Anshuman runs 5/3 times as fast as Mukesh. In a race, if Anshuman gives a lead of 50m to Mukesh, find the distance from the starting point where both of them will meet. [TITA]
Solution:
Let after time T, they will meet. Distance covered by Mukesh is 50 m less than that by Anshuman.
SA/SM = DA/DM
5/3 = DA/ DM
If DA = 5x, then DM = 3x.
So. 5x – 3x = 50
Therefore x = 25
Distance from starting point = Distance by Anshuman = 25 x 5 = 125 m.
CAT previous year question 5. Jack and Sam are running in opposite direction around a circular track of length 220π meters. Speed of Jack is 37.5% of the speed of Sam. Find distance between two meeting points. It is given that they start simultaneously from a common starting point.
(a) 50π (b) 75π (c) 100π (d) 25π
Ans: [d]
Since speed of Jack: Speed of Sam = 3: 8.
Therefore, the no. of distinct meeting points is (3+8 = 11).
Therefore, total length of the track is divided in 11 equal parts.
So, distance between two meeting points = 220π/11 = 20π
CAT previous year question 6. In a race of 270m, if A gives B a start of 30 metres, then A wins the race by 10 seconds. Alternatively, if A gives B a start of 60 meters the race ends in a dead heat. How long does A take to run 270m? (Time and Distance previous year questions pdf)
(a) 100 sec (b) 80 sec (c) 90 sec (d) 70 sec
Ans: [c]
A gives B a start of 30 meters and still wins the race by 10 seconds.
Alternatively, if A gives B a start of 60 metres, then the race ends in a dead heat.
Therefore, the additional 30 meters start given to B compensates for the 10 seconds.
i.e., B runs 30 meters in 10 seconds.
Hence, B will take 90 seconds to run 270 metres.
We know that A gives B a start of 60 metres. A will complete 270m in the time in which B completes 210 m i.e. 70 seconds.
CAT previous year question 7. Saket is climbing on a moving escalator that is going up and takes 20 steps to reach the top. Ashish on the other hand is coming down on the same escalator. For every 5 steps that Ashish takes, Saket takes only 4 steps. Both of them take the same amount of time to reach the other end. Find the total number of steps in the escalator?
(a) 10 (b) 40 (c) 90 (d) 30
Ans: [b]
Let us assume their speeds are 5 steps per second and 3 steps per second respectively, and the speed of the escalator is ‘x’
Since both of them take the same time for the same distance, their effective speed is the same.
=> 5 – x = 3 + x
=> x = 1
Speed of Saket: Speed of escalator = 3: 1
When Saket takes 30 steps, the escalator takes 10 steps.
Total number of steps = 30 + 10 = 40 steps.

CAT previous year question 5. By what percentage is the Interest paid in the first half of the year more/less than the Interest paid in the second half of the year?
25% more
20% more
20% less
25% less
The numbers given are degree that the sector makes at the center. Since 360 degrees = 100%, to change degrees to percentages, we will have to divide by 3.6. One need not do this calculation unless absolutely must. Read through the explanation to see how one can avoid this.
Assume the income in first half year as 360x and in second half year as 360y.
CAT Previous Year Questions with Solutions
1. c
24x = 30y i.e.
. This will be the ratio of the income in the two half years.
2. c
The ratio of the expenses in the two half years will be 60 : 40 i.e. 3 : 2. Thus,
The closest option is 2 : 1
3. b
Once could use (18x + 15y) = 4.66% (360x + 360y) to find the ratio of x and y and then proceed to find the ratio (24x + 30y)/(360x + 360y).
An easier way is to realise use Alligation to find the ratio x/y.
4.66% is
i.e. 14/3%.
This in degree terms is
= 16.8 degrees.
Thus, the weighted average of 18 and 15 is 16.8. Hence the weights are in the ratio 1.8 : 1.2 i.e. 3 : 2
Now we want to find the weighted average of 24 degrees and 30 degrees with weights being 3 : 2. The average is thus (72 + 60)/5 i.e. 132/5 degrees i.e. 26.4 degrees. In percentage terms this will be 264/36 i.e. 22/3 = 7.33%
For questions 4 & 5:
360x = 120 i.e. x = 1/3 and 360y = 144 i.e. y = 2/5.
4. d
Expense in first half = 228/3 = 76, Net profit in first half = 60/3 = 20
Expense in second half = 210 × 2/5 = 84, Net profit in second half = 85 × 2/5 = 34.
Thus, total profit = 54 and total expenses = 160. Thus, required percentage = 54/160 i.e. 33.75%
5. a
Interest paid in first half = 30/3 = 10. Interest paid in second half = 20 × 2/5 = 8.
Thus, required percentage 25% more.
Direction for Q6-Q10
A company conducted a survey among 75 households to know how many households own the electronic devices laptop, smart phones and tablets during the years 2015 and 2016.
In 2015 it was found that the number of households owning exactly one device, exactly two devices and exactly three devices are in the ratio 3 : 2 : 1
The households that own both laptop and tablet also own a smart phone.
In 2015, ten households owned both laptop and tablet.
In 2015 the number of households owning only laptop is the same as the number of households owing only smart phones, which is one less than the number of households owning all the three.
The number of households owning all the three devices in 2016 is three times of those that were owning all three devices in 2015.
The number of households owning exactly two devices is decreased by five and the number of households owning exactly one device remained the same.
In all it was found that none discarded any of the products already owned by them and no one purchased more than one new electronic device mentioned.
In 2016, the total number of households owning tablets increased by 50% and that owning laptop increased by 60% as compared to 2015.

CAT sample Paper with Solution (Q6-Q10):
from (2) and (3), there is no one who owned laptop and tablet only and ten households own all the three. (∴ g = 10)
From (1), exactly one (a + b + c) = 30 and exactly two (d + e + f) = 20. Hence, n = 15.
From (4), a = b = (g – 1) = 9.
Hence, c = 12 Since f = 0, d + e = 20.
If e = k, then d = 20 – k
From (8), the number of households owning tablet must be an even number since f = 0, c = 12 and g = 10, e should also be even.
Let us say e = 2k, then d = 20 – 2k [from (8)], the number of households owning laptops increased by 60%. Hence it should be a multiple of 5 in 2015.
Thus, the conditions that the number of households that own laptop should be a multiple of 5 and the number of households owning tablets is an even number is possible only when k 2 or 7. If k = 2, the value for 2015 would be as follows.
Families without any device will be 15, so total of tablet will be 26
From (5), (6) and (7) for 2016 g = 30, exactly one (a + b + c) = 30 and exactly two (d + e + f) = 15.
Hence, n = 0.
It is given that no one purchased more than one device. Hence, the entire 20 i.e., exactly two of 2015 shifted to g in 2016. From (a), all those who owned only smart phone (9) of 2015 purchased tablets. Hence, ‘e’ for 2016 is atleast 9. Hence ‘d’ for 2016 should be atleast 6, comes from a of 2015. But the number of households owning laptop should be 160% of 35 i.e., 56. It means 17 should be added from a, which is not possible. Thus k cannot be 2. k must be 7.
Families without any device will be 15, so total of tablet will be 36
2016
Arrow indicates movements of devices towards house hold
The maximum value x can take is 6 (because 6-x cannot be negative)
Ans 6. The number of people owning laptops or tablets = 75 – (9 + 15) = 51.
Ans 7. The increase/decrease in the number of smart phone owners is 17.
Ans 8. The increase in the households that own only smart phones is 2.
Ans 9. Only laptop and smart phone ~ tablet and smart phone in 2015 = 24 – 6 = 18 In 2016 = 39 + x – 6 + x = 33 + 2x. ⇒ minimum = 33 maximum = 45 it is definitely higher in 2016. Ans: (2016)
Ans 10. From the venn diagram, 6 – x + x = 6 ∴ 6 households.

Some people shy away from travelling alone, a few embrace it. So, what is it that makes it an attractive option? What are the advantages of going it alone? Well first things first, travelling solo can be very liberating. The itinerary you set and all the decisions you make are yours and yours alone. You don't need to worry about any other person or group. In other words, there's no need to compromise, there are no arguments, and no need to second-guess what other people want or need. Actually, you can be completely selfish. Travelling alone is also a great confidence builder. Yes, at times it can feel a bit lonely, but that is just one of many problems you will have to solve yourself, along with making your own arrangements, and setting your own goals.
Have you noticed that when you’re on your own, people are more willing to start a conversation with you? You're more likely to take the initiative as well, and before you know it, up pops an invitation for a meal, a side trip, a stay at someone’s home. For some odd reason people keep a slight distance from couples and groups, probably because they seem so self-contained and exclusive. Whereas the lone traveler looks ready to connect with their fellow human beings, and more likely to engage in pleasant conversation and simple exchanges about their travels. Putting it simply, lone travelers look interesting.
Here are two more exciting reasons why you should consider travelling solo: You will find you learn language faster when you don’t have someone else talking to you in your own language all the time. It’s funny, but we interact, are forced to interact much more frequently when we travel alone in a country that doesn’t speak our native tongue. If that doesn't convince you, there is the chance for adventure and even romance. When you’re on your own you’re free to meet someone who might turn out to be very important in your life. The most important factor to consider in your decision to make a trip alone is your own sense of independence. If you find that you have little tolerance for the idiosyncrasies of others, or you don't get how group dynamics work, you might be happier travelling alone. Of course, there may be things holding you back: Fear of the unknown, or maybe you have a spouse, relative, or friend who may be upset by your decision to take off by yourself, you will have to convince them of the value of travelling alone and allay any fears they might have, but with the technology at our fingertips, you can include them in the adventure.

CAT Syllabus: Subjects & Chapters
Select your preferred subject to view the chapters
To excel in CAT mock tests, a smart and strategic approach is essential. Candidates must balance speed and accuracy, understand question types, and manage time efficiently while learning from mistakes to improve with every attempt.
1. Scan and Prioritise
Start by quickly scanning the entire section to identify questions that seem easy or familiar. Attempt those first to secure quick and confident marks. This strategy helps build momentum and ensures that you don’t miss out on scoring opportunities due to difficult or time-consuming questions early on.
2. Time Allocation
Divide your total available time across sections and set mini time limits for groups of questions. For example, aim to finish every 10 questions within a fixed time. This discipline prevents spending too much time on any single question and allows you to attempt more within the overall time constraint.
3. Eliminate Options
When you're unsure of the correct answer, use logical reasoning to eliminate clearly incorrect choices. Narrowing down to two options increases the probability of a correct answer and helps you make informed guesses, especially in verbal and reasoning questions where absolute certainty can be difficult.
4. Avoid Guesswork
Since the CAT has negative marking for wrong answers, avoid random guessing. If you're completely unsure, it’s better to skip the question. Prioritise accuracy over attempting every question, as careless guesses can significantly impact your overall percentile.
5. Review Analysis
After each mock test, spend quality time reviewing your performance. Note the types of questions you got wrong, understand the logic behind the correct answers, and identify patterns in your mistakes. This post-test analysis is crucial for long-term improvement and refining your test-taking strategy.
I hope everyone would be able to take some takeaways from this practice questions session
See you tomorrow for Day 36
Till then, keep learning, keep practising.
Thank you!
All the best!

M/s Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited, one of the top four audit and accounting firms in the world with headquarters at London, UK, and with an operational presence in 153 countries, hires Management Trainees (MT) from all the premier management institutes of India thrice every year, in the months of January, May and September.
Each new group of Management Trainees (MT) have to go through a four month rigorous training schedule, after which they have to pass through a test consisting of a written assessment and a case-analysis. The top hundred ranked Management Trainees (MT) based on the performance in the test are confirmed as Management Executives (ME). The rest are given the opportunity of undergoing the training for four months one more time along with the next batch of Management Trainees (MT) and then passing through the subsequent test consisting of the written assessment and case-analysis. The Management Trainee (MT) who fails to get confirmed as a Management Executive (ME) the second time is fired.
The scatter-graph below depicts the number of Management Trainees (MT) at Deloitte taking the tests from January 2020 till May 2022, and the vis-à-vis hired Management Trainees (MT) at Deloitte who were fired :
It is also known that for the month of September 2019 at Deloitte, 96 hired Management Trainees (MT) failed to be confirmed as a Management Executive (ME) the first time, and that 36 hired Management Trainees (MT) were fired.
Question :
In which test did the minimum number of Management Trainees (MT) get confirmed as a Management Executive (ME) in the second attempt ?
Two friends Moloy and Niloy passed out from the Purulia Institute of Science and Technology with B.Tech degrees in Mechanical Engineering, but even after a year placement was hard to find. So they decided to take the challenge head-on, came down to Kolkata, rented a garage space on Park Street, and having an affinity towards making people enjoy good food, started their firm named 'B.Tech Bread-Omlette Wala'.
They started with three items on the menu. One was the French Toast which could be prepared in 3 minutes. The second was the Egg Tortillas which took 15 minutes to prepare. Any one of Moloy and Niloy could prepare any one of them at a time. The third was the Egg Bhurji with French Fries. This however was prepared on an automated fryer which could prepare 3 servings at a time and took 5 minutes irrespective of the number of servings equal to or below 3. The fryer did not need anyone to attend to it, and the time to put in the raw ingredients could be neglected.
