Solution: (B)

1695877475353

Area of parallelogram ABCD = 72 = CD ×AP

9AP=72

AP = 8 cm

In right-angled triangle APD, AP2 + PD2 = AD2

On solving, we get

PD=8√3

Thus, Area of triangle APD = 1/2 AP×PD = 1/2×8×8√3 = 32√3

Q2. Regular Polygon Questions

The number of sides in a regular polygon is ‘m’ times the number of diagonals in it. What is the interior angle of this polygon in terms of m? [TITA, based on CAT PYQ]

Solution:

Measure of an interior angle of a regular polygon = [(n-2)1800]/n

Number of diagonals in an n-sided regular polygon = [n(n-3)/2]

Also, n = m times number of diagonals

n/m = number of diagonals

So, n/m = n(n-3)/2

On solving, we get

n = (2+ 3m)/m

Therefore,

Interior angle = (n-2)180/n = ((2+ 3m)/m-2)180/(2+ 3m)/m = ((2+ m)/m)180/(2+ 3m)/m= (2+ m)180/(2+ 3m) degrees

Games And Tournament Questions In CAT is a topic that demands a strategic approach and logical thinking to solve complex problems in the CAT exam. CAT aspirants should allocate time for extensive practice of Games and Tournaments Questions In CAT to enhance their Logical Reasoning skills. In the CAT exam, Games And Tournament Questions In CAT often challenge candidates with intricate scenarios that require careful analysis.

CAT 2023 Syllabus Topic: Strategy to prepare “Games and Tournaments (Part-1)” for CAT

Important Concepts/ Formula Used in Games and Tournaments

  1. Round Robin Format:

Total number of matches in a single round robin = nC2, where N is a number of teams.

total wins + (total ties/2) = total number of matches.

  1. Knock-Out Format:

Total number of matches = Number of teams – 1

The player ranked the highest plays the player ranked the lowest. The second-ranked player plays the second-last-ranked player and so on.

The CAT exam often includes challenging CAT games and tournaments questions, which test your logical and analytical skills. To perform exceptionally in the CAT DILR section, you must practise a variety of CAT games and tournaments questions to hone your problem-solving abilities.

Previous Years Questions on Games and Tournaments from CAT/ MBA Entrance Exam:

Six players – Tanzi, Umeza, Wangdu, Xyla, Yonita and Zeneca competed in an archery tournament. The tournament had three compulsory rounds, Rounds 1 to 3. In each round, every player shot an arrow at a target. Hitting the centre of the target (called bull’s eye) fetched the highest score of 5. The only other possible scores that a player could achieve were 4, 3, 2 and 1. Every bull’s eye score in the first three rounds gave a player one additional chance to shoot in the bonus rounds, Rounds 4 to 6. The possible scores in Rounds 4 to 6 were identical to the first three.

A player’s total score in the tournament was the sum of his/her scores in all rounds played by him/her. The table below presents partial information on points scored by the players after the completion of the tournament. In the table, NP means that the player did not participate in that round, while a hyphen means that the player participated in that round and the score information is missing. [CAT 2019]

1695877475610

The following facts are also known.

  1. Tanzi, Umeza and Yonita had the same total score.
  2. Total scores for all players, except one, were in multiples of three.
  3. The highest total score was one more than double the lowest total score.
  4. The number of players hitting the bull’s eye in Round 2 was double that in Round 3.
  5. Tanzi and Zeneca had the same score in Round 1 but different scores in Round 3.

Q.1 What was Zeneca's total score?

  1. 23

  2. 24

  3. 21

  4. 22

Ans: [2]

Q2. What was the highest total score?

  1. 24

  2. 21

  3. 23

  4. 25

Ans: [4]

Q3. Which of the following statements is true?

  1. Xyla’s score was 23.

  1. Xyla was the highest scorer.

  1. Zeneca was the highest scorer.

  1. Zeneca’s score was 23.

Ans: [2]

Q4. What was Tanzi's score in Round 3?

  1. 3

  2. 5

  3. 4

  4. 1

Ans: [4]

Solution:

Player

Bull’s Eye Scored till 3rd round

T

1 (Played round 4)

U

2 (Played round 4 and 5)

W

0 (Played till round 3)

X

3 (Played all rounds)

Y

1 (Played round 4)

Z

2 (Played round 4 and 5)

Information given in the question and above information can be tabulated as

1695877475774

Total Hit bull’s Eye score till round 3 should be 9 (After counting R4, R5 and R6 played)

Total Hit bull’s eye score in round 2 can be either 1 or 2.

If Hit bull’s Eye scores in R3 =1, then R2 must have 2, and R1 should have 6 which is not possible since W has not scored any hit bull’s eye.

So, the total Hit Bull’s score in R3 = 2, R4= 4, R3 = 3; x =5 (only possibility)

All empty spaces must have a value of 5. (Since R2 have 4 hit bull’s eye score)

After this value of y and z cannot be 5. So, U must have 5 in R3.

The table will look like this

1695877476078

Total of T, U and Y must be multiple of 3.

Possible values for A = 15, 18

If A =18; Value of T in R3 = 4; Value of U in R1 = 5(Not possible)

If A =15; Value of T in R3 = 1; Value of U in R1 = 2; Value of Y in R1 = 2 (Correct)

Also, W must have a minimum score (Let it is m) and X must have maximum possible score let it be n (must be greater than 22).

As n= 2m + 1

m = 12; n = 25

But if m = 11, m = 23 (which is not possible as only one of the all-total scores is not multiple of 3)

Thus n = 25 and m = 12

As Z has four scores of 5 so his 5th score will be either 1 or 4. But it cannot be 1 as T’s score was 1.

Now the complete table will be as

Questions related to CAT

Have a question related to CAT ?

Although, it's very unlikely that you will secure a seat in top ABM with CAT 67 percentile. Here's is a breakdown to your question:

· CAT Percentile vs. Score: A CAT score of 67 typically translates to a percentile in the range of 90-95 percentile based on the provided data from previous years. While this is a decent score overall, it falls short of the cutoffs for most top-tier ABM programs.

· Cutoffs for Top ABM Institutes:

  • IIM Lucknow: For their PGP-ABM program, the qualifying CAT cutoff for the general category is around 85 percentile . However, the actual cutoff for shortlisting for the Written Ability Test (WAT) and Personal Interview (PI) stages is likely to be higher.
  • IIM Ahmedabad: While they also offer an ABM program (PGP-FABM), their minimum qualifying CAT cutoff is around 80 percentile , but the final admission cutoffs are usually much higher, often in the 99+ percentile range for general candidates.
  • MANAGE (National Institute of Agricultural Extension Management): Their cutoff in CAT percentile has been around 70 for the general category in recent years. With a 67 percentile, you might have a slim chance here, but it's still competitive.
  • CCS NIAM (National Institute of Agricultural Marketing, Jaipur): They consider CAT scores with a significant weightage (30-51% in their selection criteria). While they don't explicitly state a cutoff, it's reasonable to assume it would be higher than 67 percentile for a good chance of admission.

· Overall Good CAT Score: Generally, a CAT percentile of 90 and above is considered a good score for securing admission to decent MBA programs in India. For top-tier institutes, a percentile of 95 and above is often preferred.

· MBA Colleges Accepting 60-70 Percentile: While there are MBA colleges that accept CAT scores in the 60-70 percentile range, these are generally not the top-ranked or most sought-after ABM programs. The focus of those lists is on general MBA programs, not specifically ABM.

While securing a seat in ABM can be tough, you can research about other colleges, consider other examinations, to improve your application profile.

Hello,

achieving a 99.99 pecentile in the CAT exam significantly enhances your prospects for admission to JBIMS, which evaluates candidates using an application rating(AR) score, which includes

-entrance exam score (CAT/MH-CET/CMAT) : 60% weightage

-Past Academic Record (PAR) : 15% weightage (https://cracku.in/colleges/jbims/admission-process/?utm_source=chatgpt.com)

-Extra-curricular Activities/Work Experience : 20% weightage (https://jbims.edu/uploads/announcement/Revised_M_Sc__Finance_Admission_Procedure_Batch_2024-26.pdf?utm_source=chatgpt.com)

-Diversity (Academic/Gender): 5% weightage

while ahigh CAT percentile is crucial, a lower academic record may impact your overall AR score. Nonetheless, exceptional performance in other areas, such as entrance exams and extracurricular activities, can help offset weaker academic credentials. it's advisable to review JBIMS's detailed admission criteria and consider strengthening other aspects of your application to enhance your chances

After downloading the answer key, you can compare your responses with the official answers. If you find any discrepancies or have objections, the CET Cell usually provides a window for raising objections. You'll likely need to pay a specified fee for each objection raised. The official website will provide instructions on how to submit your objections, which may involve logging into your candidate portal and following the provided steps.

Finally, after considering all objections, the CET Cell will publish a final answer key. This final version is considered definitive, and the MHT CET results will be based on it. Keep an eye on the official website for all updates and announcements regarding the 2024 answer key.


I hope this helps.




Greetings! Here's a detailed response to your query

Okay, so you're a bit confused about what to put in those CAT, FMS, DSE, and IIFT forms regarding your 12th scores. Since you did CBSE, they usually only consider your final 12th standard marks.

Even though you did great in 11th, scoring 495 out of 500, for these entrance exam forms, they're specifically asking about your 12th board exam marks .You mentioned you got 400 out of 500 in 12th, which comes out to 80%.

Therefore, when filling out the forms for CAT, FMS, DSE, and IIFT, you should enter 80% as your 12th percentage. The aggregate of 11th and 12th isn't typically what they're looking for in these sections. They want to know how you performed in your final board exams. So, stick with the 80% from your 12th results. Good luck with your applications!

Greetings! Here's a detailed response to your query:-

Determination of the best time to start the journey of CAT examination is based on individual factors like your current skill level, knowledge ,potential, learning pace and availability. To give yourself the best chance of success on the CAT exam , which usually takes place in November, it's advisable to begin studying between January and March of that same year. This 8 to 12-month preparation window is widely recommended by experts. But if you're managing your college along with the CAT preparations make sure you start from 2nd year onwards. It will hep you manage stress and you'll have ample amount of time to get along with the syllabus , pattern and various practice and mocks .

You'll be able to build a strong foundation in each sections and be able to know your strengths and weaknesses in different topics. The CAT syllabus is extensive, and early preparation allows for thorough coverage. Assess your learning speed and adjust your preparation timeline accordingly.

Essentially, while the ideal start time is subjective, beginning your CAT preparation well in advance is generally considered the most effective strategy for achieving optimal results.

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.

The fryer did not need anyone to attend to it, and the time to put in the raw ingredients could be neglected.
