Is your CAT-meter ticking?

It was again a strange CAT again this time. This time many faces lost colours because of its changing colours. The biggest wonder was the absence of LR (reasoning). DS bounced back and DI was not given the shorter shrift. Quantum was a tad tough again because of high level of diffculty and more emphasis on algebra. Number systems, which does not require much reading, was not significantly there and thus did not give respite to those who hate reading in quantum. Language section was not a cakewalk as it comprised few easy and objective questions. The close call and subjectivity in RC passages played the spoilsport for a few good men. All said and done, it has been touted by the experts as a very tough one and small wonders CAT is considered to be the toughest examination in the world.
But the feeling still remained for few that the number questions was somewhat less to guage a wannabe manger's potential and did not give any leeway to the majority.
The test apart, what is the enthralling is the national euphoria over it nowadays.
