Whoever ate the human flesh was said to turn into a wolf, and could only regain\u00a0human form if he did not eat again of human flesh until the next nine-year cycle had ended.

Para jumbles test your understanding of thought flow. In simple words they test are you able to identify a coherently formed paragraphs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In parajumbles, CAT expects you to form a <strong>COHERENT<\/strong> paragraph; a paragraph is coherent only when:<\/span><br \/><span style=\"color: #000000;\">1. It makes complete sense<\/span><br \/><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> 2. It is a singular unit<\/span><br \/><span style=\"color: #000000;\"> 3.

Does not depend on any other sentence to make itself meaningful<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Parajumbles are considered to be the most difficult section in the VARC. But they are not difficult rather puzzling. Last year, that is in CAT 2018 there were four parajumbles questions out of which two could easily be solved. The other plus point was that they had shorter sentences. And if you master the art of solving parajumbles then you will also be set for odd man out questions that are not as difficult as parajumbles and also less time consuming.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><em><mark>Join this free whatsapp group to get the latest information about CAT exam along with the strategies by CAT experts<\/mark><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/chat.whatsapp.com\/I9G5fXbkZLM6Vcx27K10jB\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-48546 td-animation-stack-type0-2\" src=\"https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-05-08-at-2.51.45-PM-1024x475.jpeg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-05-08-at-2.51.45-PM-1024x475.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-05-08-at-2.51.45-PM-300x139.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-05-08-at-2.51.45-PM-768x356.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-05-08-at-2.51.45-PM-905x420.jpeg 905w, https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-05-08-at-2.51.45-PM-150x70.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-05-08-at-2.51.45-PM-696x323.jpeg 696w, https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-05-08-at-2.51.45-PM-1068x496.jpeg 1068w, https:\/\/www.iquanta.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/WhatsApp-Image-2025-05-08-at-2.51.45-PM.jpeg 1200w\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"475\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Rules_to_be_followed\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong><em><u>Rules to be followed<\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Attempt parajumbles in last 10-12 minutes when you are done with all RCs, summary questions etc.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">It is better to give more time in solving two parajumbles correctly than just solving all four without accuracy.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Use pen and paper while solving them.

Choose Adolf Hitler over Impressionable Art.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Don\u2019t be stuck on parajumble question for more than five minutes or you are not getting idea from where to start. It is better to attempt left out RC questions as those will have higher probability of getting right.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">While practicing parajumble questions, hide the options everytime you solve them. Make the habit of guessing the sequence all by yourself first.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The last thing is to remember is that in 99% of cases there is always a hidden story in the jumbled sentences. As the sentences are picked out from the articles by the question paper maker. Each sentence is there for a reason, so the main goal is to find the link between them and arrange.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Getting_Started\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong><em><u>Getting Started.<\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">There is no theory for preparing parajumbles though grammar skills will help you out here. You need to pick up the questions and start solving<strong>. Target atleast 25-30 parajumbles in a day and within four months of rigorous practice you will end up solving 3000 parajumbles<\/strong>. Give an hour to this exercise if you have time and if you are working professional then half an hour will also suffice. But the link must not be broken, if you miss solving them someday and then solve double the next day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Brush up the grammar skills.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Words like although, But, Because, etc must be carefully observed as in most of the cases they follow some other sentence i.e they

The questions presents a jumbled paragraph and asks the CAT aspirants to choose a sentence that does not fit in the paragraph.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">All these questions can be solved by following same strategies. So let us understand the strategies and solve some questions.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"TITA\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>TITA<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The questions in recent CAT Exams have presented us with mostly TYPE IN THE ANSWER format. This means that Para Jumble becomes a dicey call.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">IF the language of paragraph jumble is easy-medium and the sentences are not too long, one should definitely attempt them. If the language is medium and the sentences are long then one should avoid them at all costs as (1) they will be difficult to un-jumble and (2) even if we solve them, lot of time would have been wasted. So if you are supposed to solve them, leave them for the end.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The proven technique or strategy to solve is to identify the idea flow between the sentences and arrive at a coherent paragraph. To identify the links we need to identify the keywords. One effective way is to identify mandatory pairs<strong>.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Noun_Pronoun\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Noun.. Pronoun: <\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Generally the paragraph jumble will mention a noun first and then use pronouns to point at it. So we need to simply identify those sentence pair that does that<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>For instance:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">He was carrying his jacket and walked with his head thrown back.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">As Anette neared the lamp she saw a figure walking slowly.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">For a while Michael walked on and she followed twenty paces behind.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">With a mixture of terror and triumph of recognition she slackened her pace.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">OA: BDCA<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Since B mentions that <strong>Anette <\/strong>saw a <strong>figure. <\/strong>So that makes B the first statement. So that makes <strong>BD<\/strong> a mandatory pair. Next is D as she has <strong>recognized <\/strong>the <strong>figure.<\/strong> And in C the name of the figure is mentioned. Now read A. It says that <strong>HE <\/strong>was carrying his jacket.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Chronology_Time_reference\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Chronology\/ Time reference<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Many a times there is a logical\/ time bound event chain present in the paragraph jumble. It could be a series of events, steps etc. We can identify the beginning \/start of the event and then find the next event and so on.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>For instance: <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Four days later, Oracle announced its own bid for PeopleSoft, and invited the firm\u2019s board to a discussion.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Furious that his own plans had been endangered, PeopleSoft\u2019s boss, Craig Conway, called Oracle\u2019s offer \u201cdiabolical\u201d, and its boss, Larry Ellison, a \u201csociopath\u201d.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">In early June, PeopleSoft said that it would buy J.D.

Such sentence can introduce a concept, be a definition, describe an event, state an observation. In short, it will be the Obvious opener of the paragraph.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">A good way to find such sentence would be to look at the first letter of the option and read only that sentence to gauge whether the sentence is an obvious opener or not.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>For instance<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: line-through;\">Since then<\/span><\/strong>, intelligence tests have been mostly used to separate dull children in school from average or bright children, so that special education can be provided to the dull.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">I<strong><span style=\"text-decoration: line-through;\">n other words<\/span><\/strong>, intelligence tests give us a norm for each age.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Intelligence is expressed as intelligence quotient, <\/strong>and tests are developed to indicate what an average child of a certain age can do: what a 5-year-old can answer, but a 4-year-old cannot, for instance.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Binet developed the first set of <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: line-through;\">such tests<\/span><\/strong> in the early 1900s to find out which children in school needed special attention.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Intelligence can be measured by tests.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">As you can see <strong>D <\/strong>says SUCH tests. That means either it should define what tests or a statement prior to it should define the tests as we use SUCH when we have mentioned beforehand something about the word. Since D does not mention that, some other statement should and hence D cannot be obvious openers. <strong>C <\/strong>looks attractive as an obvious opener as it says the <strong>intelligence is expressed as intelligence quotient and tests are developed&#8230;.<\/strong> Now for one moment let us consider this option. Then what about <strong>E <\/strong>that also introduces an idea that intelligence can be measured by tests? Since it does not have a word such as THUS, HENCE it cannot be conclusion it can be only at the start of the paragraph or not in the paragraph at all. That means <strong>E <\/strong>is START of the idea. Hence E is the obvious opener.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Sentence_First_and_Last_Sentences_Fixed\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>6 Sentence \/ <\/strong><strong>First and Last Sentences Fixed<\/strong><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">These types are ironically slightly better than 4,5 sentence paragraph jumbles as we already get an obvious opener and thus have idea of what the paragraph is saying.
