At a glance
- Length
- A computer-based test in three timed sections: VARC, DILR and Quantitative Ability.
- Scoring
- Scaled scores and percentiles. IIMs and other business schools set their own cut-offs and selection criteria.
- Worth knowing
- Each section has its own time limit and you cannot move between sections, so pacing is per section.
VARC
Reading comprehension and verbal ability.
DILR
Data interpretation and logical reasoning sets.
QA
Arithmetic, algebra, geometry and number systems.
Formats and requirements change between series. Confirm current details with CAT (IIMs) before you plan around them.
