Welcome to the CAT 2017 Live Discussion Room. We will be on for another week or so. The idea is that everyone can share their experiences.
We have the first few students who are sharing their feedback live with us. You can follow us on instagram. We will also be sharing the videos soon here too.

First Impressions by ARKS Srinivas - National Head for MBA at Career Launcher (previously CEO of Vistamind) -
First slot / exactly similar to last year. However, Quant was very easy. So was VA. But LRDI continues to be tough with a lot of reasoning based DI and LR. Cutoff will go pretty low for LRDI. Whereas the cutoff for QA will increase quite a bit. Also, para summary was given as MCQ.
VA/RC - RC 24 questions (5 passages) exactly as last year. VA - 7 questions Non MCQs; 3 questions MCQ
Similar to last year paper. Cut off may go down a bit.
LRDI - 8 sets. Not direct at all. Reasoning based. Cut off will go down quite a bit.
QA - Pretty easy and direct. Quite a lot of arithmetic. Making it easier for non-engineers. Cutoff will go up.
Overall cutoff will go down.

ARKS initially thought cutoff will down but after speaking to students he has revised his estimate upwards. Edit - OVERALL CUTOFF WILL GO UP!

For a 95+% ile in DILR, what should be the number of correct attempts or estimate score?

Here's a video feedback of some of the CAT takers in the first slot - https://insideiim.com/video/cat-2017-live-feedback-cat-takers-slot-1/?src=konv
I could attempt only 4 in DILR; otherwise I've done 21 in VA and 9 in QA with high levels of accuracy...got any clue how will this performance impact my overall %ile?

4 in DI is a little too less. You may have a problem clearing cutoffs.

IS THIS A GOOD ATTEMPT CONSIDERING 80-85% ACCURACY IN VARC, 90+ IN LRDI AND 95%+ IN QA

Wait for the detailed analysis which will be out in a couple of hours. Accuracy above 80% is very good. But DI attempts seem slightly low.
VA/DILR/QA attempt is 12/10/9 with 70-80%accuracy. What percentile I can expect??
