What Makes iQuanta

10th NCERT Maths in alignment with
CAT Syllabus. So that whenever they

Quant too.
02. ENGINEERS VARC
-Engineers VARC is the ultimate
solution for students who are weak
in CAT VARC.
-We will teach you how to approach
and answer VARC question in a
logical and critical way – the way cat
exam expects you to do
03. 24×7 Doubt Solving in iQuanta CAT Course
04. iQuanta’s Dual Pedagogy
• Listening passively has certain disadvantages because one is not actively involved in the learning process. And as
we have limited attention spans, any student will not be able to listen attentively for an extended period of time.
• Hence, short attention spans can be increased through iQuanta’s dual pedagogy wherein the focus is not only on
teaching theoretical concepts but also application-based learning.
05. iQuanta’s CAT Content Relevancy
Content Relevancy is one of the biggest features of iQuanta. Over the years it has been observed
several times that the questions in exams like CAT, XAT and IIFT were similar to what was taught in
the class.
CAT QUESTIONS DIRECTLY FROM iQUANTA’S CAT & MBA COURSE
06. Peer to Peer Learning
A community is very important as having a dedicated community at one place will provide you with
the necessary support for your preparation.
Public Group
Paid Group
07. iCAT Mocks ( India’s First AI Based Mock )
Mocks are very important as
taking them will make you
habitual of sitting for a 2 to 3-
hour exam. They are also very
important to figure out your
weaknesses, and once you spot
them, you should give them more
attention.
A 99+%iler attempts 30-50
mocks on an average.
