NTSE 2015-16 Discussion

Let us discuss NTSE 2015 stage 1!

#Discussion #NTSE

This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments should further the discussion of math and science.

When posting on Brilliant:

Use the emojis to react to an explanation, whether you're congratulating a job well done , or just really confused .
Ask specific questions about the challenge or the steps in somebody's explanation. Well-posed questions can add a lot to the discussion, but posting "I don't understand!" doesn't help anyone.
Try to contribute something new to the discussion, whether it is an extension, generalization or other idea related to the challenge.
Stay on topic — we're all here to learn more about math and science, not to hear about your favorite get-rich-quick scheme or current world events.

MAT-44 , LCT-44 , SAT-85 (hell with S.S.T) what's the cutoff for UP?

Raven Herd - 5 years, 7 months ago

Around 112 according to Aryan Classes(pretty reliable,they predicted Rajsthan's almost correctly,difference of 1).Congratulations on the great score!

Adarsh Kumar - 5 years, 7 months ago

I found FIITJEE answer key reliable.Where are the official answer key and do you know the cutoff ?

Raven Herd - 5 years, 7 months ago

@Raven Herd – Well,the FIITJEE answer key for Telangana had many faults(about 6).

Adarsh Kumar - 5 years, 7 months ago

That must be good enough . i qualified last year from up with a score of 127/140(last year it was out of 140) and cutoff was 111 . so according to that 111/140 * 150 = 119 . so cutoff should be about 120 for up state. and congratz for getting a nice score!

Prakhar Bindal - 5 years, 7 months ago

What was your rank(stage 1)?

Raven Herd - 5 years, 7 months ago

@Raven Herd – You know pretty well that its UP . only roll numbers of selected candidates were declared (and that too in mid march) so late !

Prakhar Bindal - 5 years, 7 months ago

@Prakhar Bindal – So you are telling me that we don't get any ranks , just result.

Raven Herd - 5 years, 7 months ago

Any idea about last year's Telangana cut off?And is Aryan Classes reliable?

Adarsh Kumar - 5 years, 7 months ago

@Adarsh Kumar – yeah it is reliable (they predict correct cutoff just with an error of + or - 5% max . but most reliable is nilesh sir's blog! . he predicts the cutoff too well . (on the day of exam of ntse stage 2 he predicted that cutoff would be 80/150 and it went to 77.2!

Adarsh Kumar - 5 years, 7 months ago

@Prakhar Bindal – The cut off shown by the Aryan Classes website for Telangana,is it for this year or was it for last year?@Prakhar Bindal

Adarsh Kumar - 5 years, 7 months ago

@Adarsh Kumar – Actually I Don't Know! :P .

I guess it must be for this year only

Prakhar Bindal - 5 years, 7 months ago

@Prakhar Bindal – Hmm,well let us see.

Adarsh Kumar - 5 years, 7 months ago

Why do we write the LCT if if it is not included in the total score?Everybody here talks about score/150.

Raven Herd - 5 years, 7 months ago

It is necessary to score 20% marks in LCT otherwise your other two papers will not be checked!
