Question : The following sentence has been divided into parts. One of them may contain an error. Select the part that contains the error from the given options. If you don't find any errors, mark 'No error' as your answer.
We will / have been know the result / of the CAT exam by next week.

Option 1: of the CAT exam by next week

Option 2: We will

Option 3: have been know the result

Option 4: No error

Team Careers360 22nd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: have been know the result


Solution : The error lies in the third option.

Explanation: The error lies in the use of the phrase "have been know". The correct form should be "have known" when expressing future perfect tense. The structure is "will have known", indicating that the action of knowing the result will be completed in the future before a specified time (next week). The verb "know" should be in its past participle form "known" in this context.

Therefore, the correct sentence would be: We will have known the result of the CAT exam by next week.

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank no. 3.

Option 1: intact

Option 2: sound

Option 3: flawless

Option 4: vibrant

Team Careers360 21st Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: sound


Solution : The correct choice is the second option.

The context suggests a disruption in the quietness of the place. The phrase sound of breaking refers to the noise associated with something breaking, making "sound" the most suitable option here.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Intact means whole or undamaged.
  • Flawless means perfect or without faults.
  • Vibrant means full of energy or brightness.

Therefore, the correct answer is sound.

Question : Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the word given in brackets to fill in the blank.

The (friendly) dog wagged its tail, while the _____ cat hissed.

Option 1: loving

Option 2: welcoming

Option 3: affectionate

Option 4: hostile

Team Careers360 22nd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: hostile


Solution : The most appropriate antonym is the fourth option.

Friendly and hostile are antonyms. Friendly describes a warm, kind, and amiable nature, while hostile indicates an unfriendly, aggressive, or antagonistic nature. In the sentence, the dog is friendly, and the cat is portrayed as its opposite, which is hostile.

Loving, welcoming, and affectionate are synonyms or are similar in meaning to friendly and would not convey the intended contrast in the sentence. 

Therefore, the complete sentence should be: "The friendly dog wagged its tail, while the hostile cat hissed."

I got 63 Percentile In Cat . What options I have to get admission in a college for Mba or Pgdm under budget of 10 lakhs .

Ishita 4th Aug, 2024

Hello Aspirant

Your performance in CAT is somewhat near average, if not below. With 63 percentile, I don't think you will be able to ace IIMs or any top-rated MBA colleges. All you can opt for is a Tier 2 or Tier 3 MBA college.

MBA is a tad bit expensive course, where the semester-wise fee could range anywhere from 5-10 Lacs, making it a whopping 20 Lac course.

I would sincerely suggest that you give the CAT exam again the next year, with a lot more preparations, and get a higher percentile.

Still, colleges that may accept you with 63 percentile with your 10 L budget are-

  • AIMS Institute, Bangalore
  • NDIM, Delhi
  • JIMS Rohini, Delhi
  • DBS Dehradun

These are some of the better known MBA colleges.

i have scored 32.24 percentile in cat 2023 suggest me some college based on my marks or is there any ways can i get into private colleges and instituitions by attending their entrance exam?

Akansha Sharma 21st Dec, 2024

With a 32.24 percentile in CAT 2023, top IIMs and elite colleges may be out of reach. However, you can still target private MBA colleges that accept CAT scores or conduct their own entrance exams. Consider colleges like UPES Dehradun, Symbiosis Pune, IFIM Business School, and LBSIM Delhi. These institutes often have lower cutoffs and offer strong MBA programs. You can also explore options like NMIMS or Welingkar, which conduct their own exams and may have more flexible criteria.

Option 1: To state the wrong facts

Option 2: To reveal a secret

Option 3: To say something unrealistic

Option 4: To discourage someone

Team Careers360 22nd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: To reveal a secret


Solution : The second option is the correct answer.

In the context of the sentence, letting the cat out of the bag means accidentally disclosing or revealing a secret, specifically about the person's promotion.

The idiom implies that information was divulged that was meant to be kept confidential or hidden.

Therefore, the correct answer is to reveal a secret.

Can I get admission in IMT nagpur even after having 57 percentile in Cat exam

Sajal Trivedi 17th Jan, 2024

Hello aspirant,

I regret to inform you that, despite your 57 percentile on the CAT exam, IMT Nagpur will not be contacting you. This is because the college's total cut-off score for all CAT, MAT, and CMAT exams is 70 percentile. There is no sectional cut-off, but you must score at least in the 70 percentile in order for your application to be reviewed further.

Thank you

Hope this information helps you.

Question : Improve the underlined part of the sentence. Choose ‘No improvement’ as an answer if the sentence is grammatically correct.
A fully grow Chihuahua weighs less than the average house cat.

Option 1: fullest grown

Option 2: fully growth

Option 3: No improvement

Option 4: fully grown

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: fully grown


Solution : The correct answer is the fourth option.

Here, "grow" should be in the past participle form "grown" to match the tense of the sentence correctly.

In this correction, "grown" is the past participle form of the verb "grow," and it agrees with the past participle tense needed in the sentence. This adheres to the rule of maintaining proper verb tense and agreement in sentences.

Therefore, the correct answer is: "A fully grown Chihuahua weighs less than the average house cat."
