XAT 2015: The second largest exam

Very shortly the anxiety of CAT 2014 takers on CAT 2014 result declaration date would come to an end as the exact date of CAT 2014 result would be announced soon. Responding to MBAUniverse.com query, Dr Rohit Kapoor Convener CAT 2014 has shared Soon we will announce the exact date of declaration of CAT 2014 result.

The confusion on transparent process on score normalization and calculation of percentile continued even after publication of score normalization by CAT Centre 2014. The process claims to focus on Fairness, Equity and comparison of performances across the 4 test sessions in CAT 2014. However, the Normalization process remains without details.

Claim of Equity

SNAP 2014 is only a week away. The last week before the D day is usually nerve wrecking especially when you have been preparing very well for the examination and wish to come out with flying colours. Candidates are apprehensive, not knowing what to expect. With all the talk of exams and a to-do list a mile long, its completely natural to be freaking out.

CAT 2014 are getting more apprehensive of receiving yet more surprises from CAT 2014 results as the adopted scoring normalization method is not only new but has also not been shared well to substantiate its claim of fairness and transparency. So far CAT 2014 takers got the surprises in conduct of CAT 2014, its testing pattern, different type of questions, navigating tools and different type of testing experience than they had in earlier CAT exams.

XAT has been emphasising more on the Decision Making skills of MBA/PGDM aspirants. How they take decision in a given situation and how good is the decision, is the very purpose of testing the future managers on Decision Making in XAT 2015. In fact, XAT 2015 is all set to place a separate section of 25 questions on Decision making with equal weightage as given to Verbal and Quant sections.

Despite the assurance from Dr Rohit Kapoor, CAT 2014 Convener duly conveyed to CAT 2014 takers by MBAUniverse.com that final checks are going on to declare the results, the CAT 2014 takers are worried about the result day and are apprehensive about ups and downs like delay in result declaration, changes in expected percentile due to changed exam pattern and different score normalization process in CAT 2014.
