General Instructions:

1. The number, type and pattern of questions, as well as sequence and timing of sections in the Mock Exam are only indicative and these are subject to variations from year to year as decided by the CAT authorities.

2. The test has 3 (three) sections. The total duration of the test is 120 minutes. PwD candidates will have 13 minutes and 20 seconds extra time for each section.

3. The time allotted to each section is 40 minutes (53 minutes and 20 seconds for PwD candidates). As soon as you start answering a section, the clock (displayed on the top right corner of the screen) will start. On completion of 40 minutes, the clock will stop, the particular section will be locked, and the responses to questions in that section will be auto-submitted. You will then need to move to the next section and start answering the next set of questions. The same process will be repeated for the other two sections. On submission of all three sections, a summary of your answers will be displayed on your screen.

For PwD candidates the process will be the same as above. The only exception is that, for each section, the PwD candidate will have 53 minutes and 20 seconds, with an option for submitting the answers of a section at any point of time after the completion of 40 minutes. Thus, PwD candidates will have the option to complete the entire test with all three sections within a maximum of 160 minutes.

4. You will be allowed to leave the test hall only after a minimum of 120 minutes.

5. Your time will be set and synchronized to the server clock. The Countdown Timer at the top right corner of your screen will display the remaining time available to you to complete the currently active section. When the timer reaches zero, the test for that section will automatically end.

PwD candidates will be allowed to complete a section at any point of time between duration of 40 minutes and 53 minutes and 20 seconds by clicking on the ‘Submit’ button. After 53 minutes and 20 seconds, however, the test for the section will automatically end.

6. The question paper will have a mix of Multiple Choice Question (MCQ) type with options and Non-MCQ type.

7. A writing pad will be provided to the candidates for rough work, which will have to be returned after the test. Please note that only one writing pad will be provided to you. Candidates should clearly write their name and registration number on the writing pad.

8. An on-screen calculator will be provided, which can be used for computing. You will not be allowed to use any other calculator, computing machine, or device.

9. The question palette displayed on the right side of the screen will show the status of each question with the help of one of the following symbols:
