All You Need To Know About Data Interpretation Section in CAT - Part II

Over the last few years, the DI section of CAT has moved from “Data Representation” to “Data Interpretation”. Confused? What we mean to say is that in the past, your decision of whether to attempt or not attempt a particular set depended on what kind of Data Representation it was. Thus a student comfortable in graphs would search for sets containing in the paper and solve them. Or for that matter, a student who was not so comfortable in caselets would end up skipping all the sets on in a paper. However this strategy would no longer be valid. CAT has moved beyond a caselet or a graph or a table or so as to say, it is no longer important to establish how is the data represented. As the statistics suggest, graphs have almost gone missing in the last 8 CAT papers and special kind of data representations have crept in.

How to Bell the CAT

The most common phrase, “Don’t panic” is the first thing people might tell you before starting your CAT (Common Admission Test) preparation. As easy as it might sound, the importance attached with the above phrase is huge. More often than not, lack of composure during CAT proves to be the only reason why most of the applicants are not able to cross the final hurdle despite preparing well for the exam. That CAT is the toughest management entrance exam in the country, is a big MYTH. Yes, the preparation that goes towards cracking the CAT is extensive but with the right attitude and strategy, “belling the CAT” is easily achievable.
