New Delhi: Over 7,271
students appeared for the CAT exam Friday as it resumed after a
two-day Diwali break.
No hitches were reported.
"In the beginning there were a lot of apprehensions, but luckily
we had our exam much later. Though the sections are like
water-tight compartments, it was more or less the same," said
Sujata, who appeared for the exam.
The Common Admission Test (CAT) 2011 has two timed-sections of 70
minutes each unlike earlier years when there were no sectional
time limits.
The first section tests quantitative ability and data
interpretation while the second is based on verbal ability and
logical reasoning.
The total time for the exam is increased from 135 minutes to 140
minutes.
"Unlike earlier, now there are two sections and you cannot choose
which one to answer first," says Ulhas Vairagkar, director,
T.I.M.E. Institute, Delhi.
The exam will be over Nov 18.
