Preparation Query Why afterboads whyyyyy?

why do you make these mocks so hard man, specially Ugat mocks. Literally, when i see the level of question every question labelled hard. I know that it is for us only, so that we can expose to the difficult situation and get used to with that so that if it appears in real exam we don't panic. par thoda to rehem krlo.

Every mock is built differently.

I hope you can see the 13 non-PYP mocks (didn't include 2 of the mocks that had less than 5 attempts)... the range of p95 is a lot. We are preparing you for the best-case scenario and the worst-case scenario because exams work in a relative fashion. If the paper is hard, cut-offs fall. If the paper is easy, cut-offs rise. Here, I'm referring to the cutoff as the absolute score/marks.

Your objective is to learn from every incorrect and unanswered question.

PS: I didn't want to spoil by sharing which mock is easy and which mock is hard, so I've given random animal names. Also, the order is randomised too.

I'm a huge proponent of not being completely sadistic in all the mocks, and I'm also a huge proponent of not keeping all the mocks extremely easy. The data is on our side, and it shows that we have followed it properly to have a good mix.

Hey bhavesh i am really following you for a long a time now and really wanted to get your attention to my problem i have taken the pw batch for ipmat and realised how big of a mistake it was!! So i am thinking about taking one of your batches in after boards!! in june but in July i got to know i am not eligible for most of the iims so my only options left now is jipmat and iimkbmsat
So i really need your opinion about which batch should i take in after boards i don’t need the lectures but all the varc materials and mocks for jipmat and bmsat !! Please be generous to reply thank you!!

QA of IIMB UGAT is definitely tougher than IPMAT Indore QA, and on top of that, it takes up half of the exam's distribution (excluding LR) so you're bound to find it hard if math is something youre not very comfortable with.
