How much should i score to get a percentile of 90?
ReplyDeleteHello,
Deleteif you get around 18+ questions right without any negative marks, you will get 90+ percentile overall..
To score 85+,
ReplyDeleteDo I need to score :
9-10 questions in section A
(AND)
6-9 questions in section B
(AND)
12-15 questions in section C
OR
9-10 questions in section A
(OR)
6-9 questions in section B
(OR)
12-15 questions in section C
Hello Ravi,
DeleteThe thing is you need to get good sectional percentile to get calls from most of the companies.. 80+ percentile in all the individual sections will fetch you more calls than 90+ overall.. So my suggestion is give all sections sufficient time and solve 6-8 correct in quant, 6-8 correct in reasoning.. 12-13 correct in verbal...you'll score 90+overall and 80+ sectional in all the three...
and yea it is AND and not OR
As sectional scores affect the Overall Score but
ReplyDeleteDoes the sectional score affect the Overall Percentile ?
------------------------------------------
Example:
Scenario 1st
____________
3 questions in section A
(AND)
3 questions in section B
(AND)
3 questions in section C
Overall 9 question and x percentile.
------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------
Scenario 2nd
____________
0 questions in section A
(AND)
0 questions in section B
(AND)
9 questions in section C
Overall 9 question and y percentile.
------------------------------------------
Will x==y? Or will it differ?
Sectional scores does not affect the overall percentile..
DeleteIf you attempt all Verbal questions and get them right, your overall percentile will be greater than 90. However that is of no use. Companies look for good sectional percentiles.. A overall 90+ with bad sectional percentile is of less significant than, 85 percentile overall with 75+ sectional percentile average...
As per your question, X==Y
And what are Arrangements questions in Logical reasoning ?
ReplyDeletePlease provide the suitable answers for the above asked question also asap as I have scheduled my exam on day after tomorrow.
As I said X==Y. It doesn't differ..
DeleteAnd arrangements are, well this question might give you an idea of what they are,
"A, P, R, X, S and Z are sitting in a row. S and Z are in the centre. A and P are at the ends. R is sitting to the left of A. Who is to the right of P ?"
Thank you bro for your timely response.
ReplyDeleteCan you just provide a overview on Tabular DI?
Is it similar to :
http://www.mbarendezvous.com/Datainterpretation.php
http://placement.freshersworld.com/power-preparation/tabular-data-351
http://www.indiabix.com/data-interpretation/table-charts/
Is it sufficient to answer Tabular DI?
Glad to help you,
DeleteDI's will be complex than the ones in the links, however they are manageable. I personally felt DI as the easiest in the Reasoning section..
Good Luck!
And yes, if you could contribute to this site after you write the test, by letting the visitors know the questions asked in the test, will be great.
You can comment the questions you remember, we will make a post of that along with the solution...
All the best again!
Thank you so much.
ReplyDeleteI will surely help in putting the materials/questions on the site so that it will be useful for others also.
Its this type http://www.indiabix.com/verbal-reasoning/seating-arrangement/048001
ReplyDeleteor
http://www.indiabix.com/verbal-reasoning/seating-arrangement/
Sufficient for these type of questions?
Well the ones in eLitmus are much more challenging than the ones given there, If I were to suggest you anything, i would say attempt the arrangement question at the end when you have nothing left..Data sufficiency and DI wud give you good amount of marks if you get them right, and believe me if you get 6 correct from the 7-8 questions from DI and DS combined, your percentile of reasoning section will be 85+ for sure!
DeleteCheers!!
P.S. That was my suggestion, but it's upto you to decide!
what is the solution of this
ReplyDelete1. how many no can be formed using digits 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 such that they are in increasing order(e.g. 12345, 578)?
2. given x=123456 and z=x-y ten for how many values of y, z value found is divided by 48, 98, 105
The second question is solved here http://gluedbrain.blogspot.in/2013/08/elitmus-questions-with-solutions.html
ReplyDeleteThe answer to the first question would be 511. If you want a solution of how 511, we would be adding a post once we gather 5 new questions.
the arrangement might be
ReplyDeletePX(SZ or ZS)RA
so the answer is "X"
