JMET 2008 analysis cutoffs

JMET 2008 Analysis

MET retains its charm as the most predictable of the major exams and JMET2008 was no different. However, in no way was this among the easy exams of this season. In fact, JMET2008 was a monster in the league of the IIFT and CAT papers, with no respite for the students. The most common reaction among the student community after the exam was that the “QA cutoff would very low – tending towards 0 (!)”.

JMET 2008 Analysis
Section 1: Verbal Communication
No. of Questions: 40

The Verbal Communication section had questions from Reading Comprehension, Grammar, Vocabulary, Analogies and Fill in the blanks. The section had a good mix of both easy and difficult questions and a student who picked up the right questions will have no problems in clearing the. The RC passages were short and readable (as opposed to CAT) but like CAT, had two very close options in most cases, which made them a nightmare to negotiate. The vocabulary questions were not commonly used words which made them very difficult to answer. The Fill in the blanks and the questions based on semantics were doable and would have given opportunities to score.

JMET 2008 Analysis
Section 2: Logical Reasoning
No. of Questions: 40

This section was dominated by the Logical Reasoning kind of questions, i.e., questions on Arguments, Strengthen & Weaken Statements and Logical Flaws. Unlike the previous years, very few questions were based on puzzles. This section was ambiguous and confusing and in several cases, one was better off working out the answers by the process of eliminating choices. There were two sets on Analytical Reasoning – one on blocks and the one based on tasks taken up by four persons, both of which were doable. Overall, this section can be classified as Easy-Moderate and was a section where marks could have been scored in this paper.

JMET 2008 Analysis
Section 3: Quantitative Aptitude
No. of Questions: 40

This section of the JMET has always managed to retain its reputation of being one of the toughest QA sections of all the management entrance exams. Traditionally there used to be a mix of questions on arithmetic as well as higher mathematics (from 10+2 level and sometimes graduation level mathematics). However, this year, the paper setters completely left out the ordinary arithmetic type of questions, involving the familiar topics of geometry, numbers and quadratic equations etc. Further, the questions on higher maths used to be mostly individual questions based on standard concepts. This year, there was a shift of focus from such type of questions to entirely application oriented questions. With the exception of a few individual questions that appeared in isolation, almost all the questions appeared in twelve sets of what can best be termed as “business caselets”, with a heavy emphasis on not only the conceptual understanding across various topics but also on the practical application of those concepts in a real-time problem/decision making situation. To this extent, most of the questions involved dealing with situations which were not perfectly structured as one would find in the usual objective type questions. An uncanny sense of discomfort would have plagued anyone and everyone trying to make sense of this section The concepts involved were as varied as probability distributions, present value of investments/ cash flows, linear programming, matrices, differential calculus, curve fitting etc. In fact, the cut-off in this section is expected to be as low as 3 marks.

JMET 2008 Analysis
Section 4: Data Interpretation
No. of Questions: 30

This section, though having only 30 Qs was a nightmare for most students. This was very unlike the easy DI section of the past. Being different from what one was used to, the sets demanded intensive calculations which made this section moderately difficult. The easy sets here were the ones pertaining to Production & Sales and the one on newspapers, which could have been solved with a little bit of effort.

JMET 2007 analysis by IMS

JMET 2007 analysis by IMS
Section I – Verbal Communication
The questions testing one’s verbal ability and reading comprehension skills were combined in one section and it was named Verbal Communication. Out of 40 questions, 15 were on reading comprehension and the rest on verbal ability. The focus was more on vocabulary and grammar based questions. Grammar Based Questions

There were a variety of questions of this type, namely: combining sentences into one, identifying the incorrect sentence, identifying the correct sentence, converting from direct to indirect speech, converting from active to passive voice, sentences with similar/dissimilar meanings. There was also a question testing punctuation and one testing spelling. On the whole, they were fairly simple, but they expected you to know the basic concepts of grammar, like rules pertaining to active-passive voice, etc.

Word Based Questions : JMET 2007 analysis by IMS

There were questions of the type like: fill in the blanks (double blanks), synonyms, antonyms, analogies (with two words and three words). Some of the words were quite difficult, e.g, mirific, concinnity, etc. Here the questions, even the analogies, required a bit of thought and sound concepts.

Reading Comprehension : JMET 2007 analysis by IMS

There were five passages on a variety of topics and one was in the form of a letter. The passages were mostly easy and the number of questions ranged from 2 to 4 per passage. The questions required you to understand and interpret the passages. There were also a few word-based questions.

The best strategy for solving this section would have been to attempt as many VA questions as possible and then attempt one or two of the shorter RC passages, especially the one with 4 questions.

A possible attempt in this section would be 15 to 16 questions and a possible score of 11to12. : JMET 2007 analysis by IMS

Section II - Logical Reasoning : JMET 2007 analysis by IMS
The section comprised 23 questions based on verbal reasoning and 17 on logical reasoning. In logical reasoning, there were sets of 4 to 6 questions. The sets were time consuming. One should have given more preference to single questions while solving.

In verbal reasoning, there were the usual constructs like critical reasoning and jumbled paragraphs. Besides these, there were several new constructs similar to syllogisms. Several questions were similar to logical reasoning in that they required a passing knowledge of mathematical concepts.

A possible attempt in this section would be 12 to15 questions and a possible score of 13 to 14 marks. : JMET 2007 analysis by IMS

Section III – Quantitative Ability : JMET 2007 analysis by IMS
The questions in this section appeared in sets with only 2- 4 that were single questions.

This section comprised questions mostly based on the Maxima Minima,Functions and Probability. There were one or two questions based on Matrices and Derivatives. The questions based on Probability were comparatively difficult to solve and interpret. Questions based on functions should have been given preference while solving.

The remaining questions had data given in tabulated form and required simple mathematical concepts with logical thinking to solve them. One should have solved these questions first.

A possible attempt in this section would be 9 to10 questions and a possible score of 7 to 8. : JMET 2007 analysis by IMS

Section IV - Data Interpretation : JMET 2007 analysis by IMS

Among the five sets of Data Interpretation, two sets: table based ‘Vacuum cleaners’ and Venn diagram based, should have been given first preference while attempting. The table based set: ‘ Edible oil production and consumption’ should have been given second preference even though it involved complex calculations, as the questions were direct.

Remaining two sets could be solved at last. Among the two, the Bar graph based one involved observation along with complex calculation. The options were very close, so accurate calculations were required. Complex calculation and interpretation were involved in solving the ‘Market share’ set , so one could have avoided attempting that set.

A possible attempt in this section would be 10 to12 questions and a possible score of 8 to 9. : JMET 2007 analysis by IMS

	Possible Attempts	Correct Answers
Quantitative Ability	9-10	6-7
Data Interpretation	10-12	8-9
Reading Comprehension	15-16	11-12
Verbal Ability	15-16	11-12
Verbal Reasoning	12-15	9-11
Logical Reasoning	12-15	9-11

Overall JMET Cut-offs (provisional) – 50-55 mark
