CAT 99.91%ile VARC | FMS Delhi Alum
Every CAT test-taker has experienced the agony of narrowing down an RC question to two plausible options, picking Option B, and discovering in the answer key that Option C was correct.
This is not bad luck; it is a carefully designed cognitive trap planted by IIM convenor question-setters.
Out of 4 options in a standard CAT RC question, 2 are easily eliminated by anyone who understood the paragraph. The battle for 99 percentile happens exclusively in distinguishing the correct option from the seductive distractor.
Options containing words like always, completely, impossible, purely, universally when the author only stated a general tendency.
Uses actual keywords from paragraph 3, but reverses the cause-and-effect relationship.
A statement that is factually accurate in the real world, but cannot be inferred from the passage itself.
Practice real IIM RC passages with detailed elimination logic and question-by-question explanations.
