FAQ

There are 20 IIMs across India. These IIMs are classified by students into three main categories:

Like CAT, XAT also has 3 sections, but the difference is XAT does not have a DI/LR section, instead it has a Decision Making section which checks your decision making ability. So the 3 sections are Verbal Ability, Quant and Decision making. XAT also has 2 other sections: 1. GK and 2. Essay Writing. GK and Essay Writing do not have any weightage in calculating the percentile, but affect the final score while shortlisting. The other major difference is that CAT has three separate timed sections while XAT is a single paper wherein you can manage time among sections.
