What are the Important Topics for CAT 2016?
CAT 2015 had 3 sections :
Quantitative Aptitude (34 questions)
Data Interpretation and Logical Reasoning (32 questions)
Verbal Ability and Reading Comprehension (34 questions)
Accepting that this example won’t change for CAT 2016, I will attempt to give you a rundown of critical points that CAT has asked on as of late.
Quantitative Aptitude
In decreasing order of importance,
Algebra and Functions: This incorporates Simple Equations, Quadratic Equations, Inequalities, Logarithms, and so forth. This is the new most loved for CAT following the previous 2–3 years. You can without much of a stretch expect 8–10 inquiries in the current year’s CAT.
Geometry: This incorporates triangles, circles, parallelograms and mensuration. Once more, you can expect 6–8 inquiries in the current year’s CAT.
Number System: Used to be the most loved for CAT till as of late. This incorporates Fundamentals with Numbers, Division properties, and so forth. Make an effort not to concentrate a lot on Remainders. They have lost their appeal. Haven’t seen a great deal of leftover portion questions in late CAT papers. You can expect 3–5 inquiries from Number framework.
Arithmetic: Since they haven’t been asked a lot recently, I have a feeling this year the paper will be arithmetic heavy. I don’t have a logic behind it. It’s just my gut feeling. Any way, you should still expect 3–5 questions.
These four topics should cover 70%–80% of the QA section.
Data Interpretation
One thing that you can anticipate from this segment is eccentrics. Consistently CAT tries to clutter the points of DI. One time, accentuation will be on Data Sufficiency and Pie Charts. Next time, they will be precluded altogether.
Most secure wager would be on Pie Charts, Histogram and an intricate table with missing information. This is by all accounts a most loved for CAT. I have been seeing histograms in DI area for as far back as 3 years now and pie graphs have dependably been there. Complex table inquiry, I saw first amid CAT’11 and afterward rehashed again in CAT’14 and CAT’15.
Logical Reasoning
This area truly is impossible to say. I have heard distinctive things from various individuals. In any case, they would all concur that LR for CAT’15 went up an indent. The data appeared to be misdirecting. Alternatives were amazingly close in their importance. Nonetheless, the basics were still the same. You needed to think LOGICALLY.
Thus, attempt to practice bewilders, parallel rationale issues. No more 3D squares, logbooks, tickers, and so on. Feline, as I would see it, isn’t going to stay with the customary inquiries for this area and for CAT as a rule. If it’s not too much trouble take note of this is only my theory. I might be totally wrong here.
Verbal Ability:
In the event that CAT’15 is taken as an indicator, the main imperative subject for this area would read point. Simply READ, READ and READ.
Your center ought to fundamentally be on this. Out of 34 inquiries in this area, there were 20 RC questions. Besides 8–10 more on parajumbles. No vocabulary based inquiries or sentence rectification or basic thinking. Plain, basic perusing based inquiries.
Be that as it may, you ought to likewise set yourself up for some rearranging and perhaps expect a couple sentence redress questions also for CAT’16. source: quora
