Logical Reasoning troubles most CAT aspirants. And honestly, I understand why. LR can be incredibly frustrating because you can spend 20 minutes on a set, feel like you are getting somewhere, and then suddenly realize that one tiny observation was all you were missing. You start questioning yourself. “Am I just bad at LR?” “Why can everyone else see the logic?” “Should I leave LR and focus on something else?” No. On a serious note, if LR is troubling you, don't try to magical

For all those who keep watching the clock and keep taking unnecessary anxiety during mocks and exams — this one is for you. You sit in a live class. A question appears. You read it, think about it, apply the concept, and solve it. No problem. Then the same kind of question appears in a mock. Suddenly: “Shit, 27 minutes left.” “Have I spent too much time on this?” “How much time should I have left?” “I need to hurry.” And before you know it, you are spending more time looking

Studies showing that trade liberalization plays a positive role in economic growth are largely based on three arguments. The first argument focuses on investment indivisibilities wherein large sunk costs are required to build export-oriented production capacity. Without deep capital markets to mobilize large sums of money, firms need scale — often achieved through government-backed consolidation or state investment — to bear the high fixed costs of entering foreign markets. O

How can we know whether a witness is telling the truth, let alone prove it in court? In his 1871 treatise, Elements of Judicial Evidence, Thomas Wharton Leigh, among the most influential legal commentators of his generation, held that the assessment of a witness's veracity was an inference made with "scarcely any deliberate reasoning." In a civil or criminal trial, jurors, magistrates, and counsel could observe witnesses—noting their composure, hesitation, tone of voice—but t

Often the skeptical gallery-goer or the classically trained painter asks two basic questions when faced with conceptual art: Is this practice art at all, given that it may consist of nothing more than an instruction, a photograph of an event, or a typed statement? And, granting that such work is accepted as art of a new type, is it not merely a cold intellectual exercise, devoid of the feeling that art is supposed to carry? As Lucy Lippard notes in her study Six Years, two qu

Institutions rarely choose their tools from a blank slate. Once a technology, standard, or procedure becomes embedded — through habit, infrastructure, or the sunk cost of prior investment — switching away from it becomes disproportionately expensive relative to its actual merits. Economists call this path dependence, and its most cited illustration is the QWERTY keyboard: a layout designed to slow typists down on mechanical typewriters that has outlived its original justifica

I have uploaded one of the session here with Aspirant permission and the actual post session report so you can see what you receive after a 1:1 here Vaishnavi came into the session with a very different problem. She wasn't struggling because she wasn't studying enough — she was already putting in around seven hours a day and had taken four full mocks. Her VARC was clearly her strongest section, but high attempts weren't consistently converting into accuracy. DILR confidence a

I have uploaded one of the session here with Aspirant permission and the actual post session report so you can see what you receive after a 1:1 here Starting CAT Preparation: Why Your First Mock Should Be a Diagnostic, Not a Judgment Bhavya is at a stage many CAT aspirants find confusing: preparation has started, but there is no reliable data yet to tell her what is actually working. She had begun working on RCs, Arithmetic, Algebra and basic LR sets, but had not taken a full

LR Set 1 — Circular Arrangement Eight friends — A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H — sit around a circular table, equally spaced, all facing the centre. "Right" refers to the clockwise direction and "left" to the counter-clockwise direction, as seen from above. • A sits third to the right of D. • Only two people sit between D and C. • B sits immediately to the right of C. • Only one person sits between B and H. • G sits directly opposite A. • Only one person sits between E and G. Q1.

I have uploaded one of the session here with Aspirant permission and the actual post session report so you can see what you receive after a 1:1 here Saumya is preparing for CAT 2026 and came into the session with a mock score of 53 marks, roughly translating to the 55.7 percentile range. Her syllabus coverage was actually much better than her score suggested: Quant was largely covered, RC practice was already a strength, and she had worked through several LR/DI concepts. The

I have uploaded one of the session here with Aspirant permission and the actual post session report so you can see what you receive after a 1:1 here Harsh is a BAF fresher preparing seriously for CAT 2026 and currently studying around nine hours a day. Despite putting in significant effort, his mock performance has remained volatile: 10 mocks attempted, with a highest percentile of 34.43 and lowest of 1.04.

I have uploaded one of the session here with Aspirant permission and the actual post session report so you can see what you receive after a 1:1 here Khushi is a BBA graduate currently working in customer support and preparing for CAT alongside a demanding work schedule. She had attempted CAT before and had been preparing seriously since August 2025, but her preparation had become inconsistent. Her recent mock performance was around the mid-50 percentile range, with VARC aroun

CAT prep is a marathon dressed up as a sprint. You put in months of work — mock after mock, topic after topic — and most of the proof of that work lives in a spreadsheet only you look at. I wanted something that actually felt like progress along the way, not just a percentile you check once every few weeks. So we built badges. Fifteen of them, across three categories, each one marking a real milestone in your prep — not participation trophies, but genuine markers of where you

You don't need more advice. You need to know what YOU should do next. Every aspirant has a different problem. Maybe you're studying for hours but your mock scores aren't moving. Maybe you've finished the syllabus but don't know what to practice. Maybe you know the concepts but struggle with time, accuracy or question selection. That's where a 1:1 Diagnosis & Strategy Session comes in. What happens in the session? We look at your preparation from the outside and answer three q

Independence means different things to different people. It isn't always about some grand idea of freedom. Sometimes, it is simply about having the freedom to build a life that your circumstances once made difficult to imagine. It is being able to take an education loan to pursue an MBA, knowing that one day you can pay it back yourself. It is being able to choose the kind of work you want to do, the industry you want to be in, and the problems you want to solve — instead of

Directions for questions 1 to 4: These questions are based on the following information. The Indian Premier League (IPL) has a total of ten teams taking part. In the league phase, each team would play two matches with six other teams and one match each with the remaining three teams. The matches are scheduled such that each team plays every other team at least once and play the same number of matches in the league phase. Two points are awarded for a win, one point for a tie a

Happiness is top priority and luckily it is our choice. Life is fairly laid out and pre planned throughout our 20s with tons of major events like college, independence, first kiss, first heartbreak, first job, first marriage (and hopefully last) but 30s are to be figured out! Freedom comes at a cost. We get to pay the price by figuring out things ourself, making daily life decisions from cooking our meals to taking out the trash, from paying rent and utilities to managing exp
