NMAT 2010 First Impression Everything went smoothly. Proper time was given to understand the process. No technical glitches. Also, the waiting time wasn’t too long as it was in CAT last year. A representative from Pearson was there to ensure smooth functioning. However there were a few errors/flaws: 1. The Review Button: The Review tab, which is provided to see the un-attempted/attempted/flagged question, only appears at the end of the test (after 120th question). So, in case you are, lets say, at question number 22, you’ll have to click till question 120 to see the Review page. Also you cannot jump from one section to another. You have to click ‘Next’ on all the pages to view the desired page. 2. Errors in question/question’s language: Errors were quite a few this time. I hardly found 1 or 2 errors in the Quantitative Skills section but the reasoning section had 4-5 errors in the sets. The following table reflects the test pattern and analysis: Section
