What
was your overall and sectional CAT 2012 percentile?
My CAT 2012
percentile was 99.97. I scored 99.05 percentile in Quant & DI section and
in Verbal and LR section I scored 99.99 percentile
What
was the toughest & easiest section for you in CAT? Why?
The toughest
section for me was the QA+DI section, specifically the DI part. I could not
solve the DI questions in the ideal amount of time in the mock tests and also,
my overall attempt in this section used to be low due to slower speed.
The easiest
section for me was the VA+LR section. I felt I had a good enough grasp logical
reasoning skills combined with a good grasp on English, as I am an avid reader.
How
were your strategies to handle the difficult part?
I practiced
a lot of question sets in DI to improve my speed as well as to gain much needed
confidence. I made sure that every set I attempted was time bound. I devoted
ample time in analyzing my mistakes after the mocks.
