CAT 2011 New Format And Dates
Apparently, the Common Admission Test (CAT) which is used by almost all MBA colleges in India for admissions, will have a new format starting this year.
The CAT 2011 will have only two sections
- QA + DI (Quantitative Aptitude + Data Interpretation)
- VA + LR (Verbal Ability + Logical Reasoning)
Both the sections will have 70 mins each, with a total duration of 140 mins. It will be held from October 22 to November 18.
It seems that the CAT committee has taken it upon themselves to ape the GMAT in the last couple years. The CAT which used to be the toughest, the most challenging, and hence the most interesting exam, has been reduced to a simple aptitude test modeled after the GMAT in which questions are repeated every year.
More details on this soon.

Analysis:
The CAT this year has 90 questions in all.
25 Quant

40 Verbal
The DI section was a bit complicated and very calculation intensive, while the Quant section was relatively easy. The Verbal section, as always was unpredictable and no one seems to know how they fared. As there were 40 questions in the VA section, it will play a major role in determining the chances of getting into the IIMs.
