Mock tests can never be ignored when preparing for CAT. Mocks are very crucial in terms of preparing for the exam. Mock tests and success cannot be defined as a ratio, but the CAT mock tests with ideal frequency will help you build confidence, get a gap analysis and start working on them.
So, How to Analyse CAT Mock Tests?
It is important to have a benchmark to analyse the mock test. A benchmark helps you set a target to get on with the tests. The target will motivate you to practise more effectively. These benchmarks will help you perform consistently in your future mock tests as well. You can identify the areas where you are weak and can pick that area and try for improvement, work on the topics and then aim to improve upon those weak topics in the next mock test you take.
With this process, each mock test is going to help you increase your accuracy in the topics where you are weak and will provide a detailed insight of the topics where you lag behind. This table will help you do an in-depth analysis of your weak areas in a well-versed manner.
You may also create an excel sheet that could contain the parameters like this:
| Sections | Mock Test 1 | Analysis | Mock Test 2 | Analysis |
| Marks obtained | ( % Attempts, % Accuracy,
Difficult Topics) |
Marks obtained | (% Attempts, % Accuracy,
Difficult Topics) |
|
| Logical Reasoning and Data Interpretation | ||||
| Verbal Ability | ||||
| Quantitative Aptitude |
Taking regular mock tests will also help prepare your mind to adapt to the exam-like environment so that you can confidently score a good rank in the exam.
