Dear Students, here is the overall score analysis of the Peak Seekers CET Test 1:
Topper
In this test, the topper scored 149 with an attempt of 189 questions.
Relative Ranking
If you scored 139+, you are in the top 2% of the students who appeared for the test.
If you scored 125-139, you are in the top 5% of the students who appeared for the test.
If you scored 116-124, you are in the top 10% of the students who appeared for the test.
If you scored 104-115, you are in the top 25% of the students who appeared for the test.
If you scored 89-103, you are in the top 50% of the students who appeared for the test.
If you scored 74-88, you are in the top 75% of the students who appeared for the test.
If you scored 29-73, you are in the bottom 25% of the students who appeared for the test.
Recommendations Based on Test Analysis
1) It is apparent that students with the highest accuracy either had very high scores or fairly poor scores. For instance, the top 4 students had an accuracy of 70% or higher. However, there were several candidates who had an accuracy of 70% or higher but ranked pretty low. These low ranks but high accuracies can be interpreted as an over-cautious approach to question solving.
2) In an exam that does not have negative marking, it is probably a good idea to mark all unanswered questions in the last few seconds of the exam. From the data of the top 5% of the students, it is seen that many had up to 15 questions unanswered. Marking these questions could have given these candidates a few more crucial points.
Section-Wise Feedback
On the whole, students performed best in Verbal questions followed by Quant questions followed by DI. The average student scored approx 50% of the 100 marks allotted to these questions.
The worrisome scores appeared in the logic questions. The average student scored 46% in Analytical questions, 40% in Puzzles, 25% in Syllogism and 29% in Visuals. This means that most students are not specifically prepared for the CET. The 100 marks for the logic questions can be the difference between getting into a top management institute and not getting admitted into even a low ranking institute. This is further confirmed by the fact that most of the toppers in our test had high logic scores too.
So, in the run up to the CET, you will be able to get the maximum boost in your scores by focusing on Logic questions.
