Frequently asked questions
What is included in a CAT VARC mock test?+
A VARC sectional typically includes reading-comprehension passages and verbal-ability questions such as para summary, odd sentence and para jumbles, structured within a timed section.
How can I improve my CAT reading speed?+
Track both words per minute and comprehension. Increase speed gradually, summarise paragraph roles and review why incorrect options looked attractive instead of focusing on speed alone.
Should I attempt every VARC question?+
Not necessarily. CAT rewards accurate selection. Sectional analysis should help you identify which passage and question types give you the best return on time.
