CAT 2020 : An analysis

Saturday, 5 December 2020

CAT 2020 had more or less similar number of questions as predicted by Jay's Academy in its 'Bell the New CAT' event and the type and difficulty level was also in close similarity to what the trainers had forecast. Following was the distribution of questions across various sections:

VARC - 26 Questions

- 4 passages (450-500 words) : 5 + 5 + 4 + 4

- 8 VA : 3 PS, 3 PJ, 2 OS hb

DILR - 24 questions

- 5 sets : 6 + 6 + 4 + 4

QA - 26 questions

Arithmetic - 10

Algebra - 8

Numbers - 5

Geometry - 3

6 Non-MCQ questions in each section.

An attempt of around 20 in VARC would have been ample with 16 to 17 right as the questions were not too tricky. 17 correct answers in VARC can push the percentile in that section to around 99.

Quant was on the easier side than expected and hence an attempt of 20 with 15 right answers could fetch above 98 percentile.

Similarly LRDI was not as tough as it usually is , nonetheless the questions were lengthy and involved tricky calculations in atleast one set. An attempt of 18 with 14 correct could do the trick of 99 percentile.

Jay's Academy will come up with a detailed analysis of the questions in each section and slot shortly to enable you predict your percentile pretty accurate.

A note from the desk of Jays Academy...

Thursday, 29 October 2020

Dear all,

As we all know, it's an unprecedented crisis that the modern world is going through and the remedy seems far, the only consolation being a new world order and life style. Though it's testing times for students, especially those completing their graduate studies, placement figures and stats including the pay packages are reassuring at this juncture. However, since most of these offers are in IT sector , and those from other disciplines have little or no option from their core areas of studies, it's a Hobson's choice for many. Having said that let me analyse a few facts and present before you certain do's and dont's with respect your planning for future. First of all, those who did not get placed for whatsoever reasons, don't be dejected as there is usually light at the end of the tunnel unless you choose a wrong direction. Hence try not to waste your time brooding over your past mistakes or decisions, instead focus in sharpening your skills ,acquiring updated relevant knowledge and keeping oneself ready to be recruited anytime as and when there is a need in the industry.

Once the current economic slow down is over, there will be a requirement for entry level graduates probably in every sector of the industry. Another way to use your time judiciously is to start preparing for competitive exams for MBA, MTech, MS(abroad) etc as many top IVY league universities and institutions like IIMs and IITs are relaxing their otherwise stringent selection norms in the wake of the current sluggish intake but not at the cost of compromising the quality of students. Meaning, if your chances of getting into an IIM was one out of five, now it could be one out of three.

Hence, to conclude, the bottom line is, not to waste your time hankering after the bygones. Also avoid self pity and inferiority, instead shrug off your weaknesses and lacunae, focus on your positives, count your blessings and take the plunge by betting on calculated risks to succeed. Also have a plan B , and keep going, because as we all know, when the going gets tough, the tough gets going.

Best Regards!💙

UPDATED SYLLABUS FOR CLAT 2020

GUIDE TO THE UG-CLAT 2020

Tuesday, 31 December 2019

The Consortium of National Law Universities (the “Consortium”) announced certain modifications in the pattern of the Common Law Admission Test (the “CLAT”), 2020 in its Press Release of November 21, 2019.

This note describes the proposed pattern of questions for each of the five specified areas that the Undergraduate-CLAT 2020 (the "UG-CLAT 2020") would comprise.

Introduction and Overview

The UG-CLAT 2020 would focus on evaluating the comprehension and reasoning skills and abilities of candidates. Overall, it is designed to be a test of aptitude and skills that are necessary for a legal education rather than prior knowledge, though prior knowledge occasionally may be useful to respond to questions in the Current Affairs section.

The UG-CLAT 2020 shall be a 2-hour test, with 150 multiple-choice questions carrying 1 mark each. There shall be negative marking of 0.25 marks for every wrong answer. These questions would be divided across the following 5 subjects:

  • English Language
  • Current Affairs, including General Knowledge
  • Legal Reasoning
  • Logical Reasoning
  • Quantitative Techniques

English Language

In this section of the UG-CLAT 2020, you will be provided passages of about 450 words each. These passages will be derived from contemporary or historically significant fiction and non-fiction writing, and would be of a standard that a 12th standard student may be able to read in about 5-7 minutes.

Each passage will be followed by a series of questions that will require you to demonstrate your comprehension and language skills, including your abilities to:

  • Read and comprehend the main point discussed in the passage, as well as any arguments and viewpoints discussed or set out in the passage;
  • Draw inferences and conclusions based on the passage;
  • Summarise the passage;
  • Compare and contrast the different arguments or viewpoints set out in the passage; and

Happy Independence Day

Thursday, 15 August 2019

Today when we Indians celebrate our 73rd Independence Day, it would be indeed wise to peep back to our rich history replete with all possible human activities from war to peace, from virtue to vice, from erudition to unawareness, from science to mysticism and from life to death to rebirths to salvation and enlightenment

India was always a free nation, its inhabitants exercised free will in almost everything till almost 10th Century AD when a series of invasions shook the very foundation of 'Indianism' destroying the cultural, scientific and moral fabric of the Indian subcontinent, and since when India became an experiment for various rulers from Islam and Hinduism to exercise their whims and fancies.

There was a systemic destruction of the most ancient order of progressive developments in the field of Science, Medicine, Engineering, Mathematics, Astronomy, Astrology and even yoga and meditation , which if allowed to evolve, would have made India the Savior of the world from almost all the menaces that plague humanity today.

The Indian system of philosophy gave way to a more sophisticated sophistry of the west and we came to slowly adopt everything western accepting the white man's burden to civilize us as a blessing forgetting our glorious past.

It is high time that with every passing independence day anniversary, we make it a point to revive and restore the true essence of Indian concept of freedom and independence through the idea of Panchsheel rooted in the famous axiom 'lokasamastha sukhino bhavanthu' and 'Vasudaivakutumbakam' realizing the very fact that the real enemy is within us, the eternal enemies, greed , lust, envy, anger and fear from which we need to emancipate ourselves and let ourselves free.

Independence Day wishes to all

RIP India's Daughter

Tuesday, 6 August 2019

A great patriot and national leader, Sushma Ji will continue to be a supremo like Indira Gandhi in Indian minds due to her relentless efforts in solving various crises which plagued our country in the last few years.

Many hostage issues, espionage matters, Kuldeep Yadav case in ICJ etc are just some matters where she showed her resilience and nationalism without being a fundamentalist or fanatic. Her stint as foreign minister during Modi 1 was remarkable in ways more than one when India became so close to achieving the status of a permanent member in UNSC

It might just not be a coincidence that she departed her beloved Bharath precisely when India integrated J&K by scrapping Article 370 and 35A.

A stateswoman of tall stature, she represented in its true sense the BHARAT NAREERATNAM.

The Insatiable Appetite for Success

Wednesday, 31 July 2019

There is a thin line dividing success from failure as is between life and death, context the suicide of India's coffee king Sidharth, in what can be termed as a conceding of defeat under mysterious circumstances. Both success and failure are subjective terms and defined in a hypothetical way with lot of preconditions and assumptions not without biases and prejudices. For instance in a hugely populated country like India, where a good number of its citizens reel under poverty, it's the wealth, assets and possessions that define one's success in life irrespective of one's academic background, value systems, core competencies and unique talents & skills. A retired college principal who could not amass wealth and pass it on to his progeny may often be regarded as a failure as compared to a multimillionaire businessman who might have done illicit trades to become rich and commands more respect in society solely due to his wealth. So sad is the state of affairs that a person is regarded as highly successful if he or she can accumulate wealth overnight by a unique idea, or become a celebrity just by the 'special wink of the eye' in a single scene in a movie without having to take any pains of efforts as put in by established people in respective fields.

In this globalized and mechanized world of dog -eat- dog competition where there is a rat race everywhere from kindergarten to post-retirement ventures, humans have embarked on a relentless pursuit of Pyrrhic victories culminating in collateral damages to his brethren, environment and the entire ecosystem of which he is also a product. It is high time that we as a cognitive species on earth if need to survive long on this fast emaciating mother earth, corrective measures starting from a purging of our decadent thought process to submitting ourselves to the ennobling virtues of human divinity like compassion, cooperation , coexistence and selfless unconditional service to fellow living beings be taken up on a war footing.
