TCY Analytics – The De-Facto Method for Test

Preparation
By TCYonline

Much like the various National and International standardized tests, Test
Preparation techniques and tools have also evolved over time. Many
contemporary competitive exams have proved to the aspirants that test taking
strategies of past are no longer relevant to the tests of today. Take, for instance,
the case of CAT. Until 2006-07, CAT was a paper based exam which was thought to
be created to challenge one’s speed and accuracy in solving complex and
calculation focused problems. However, post 2006, the speed building strategies
became obsolete and the need for logical problem solving methods became
indispensible. Then came 2009 and we saw CAT in a brand new Hi-Tech Avatar
pressing the need for the test prep organizations to innovate and change with the
rapidly changing times. Similarly, examinations like GRE, GMAT, AIEEE and IIT have
also kept both test takers as well as the trainers on their toes with one change or
the other happening every second year.

However much the test patterns change, there is one exercise which constitutes an
essential ingredient of a successful test preparation technique. It is – Test
Analytics. There is a Thumb-rule or what we call De-Facto method which is
common to all the national and international tests - “Regular in-depth analysis” of
one’s performance. Experts opine that for a test that requires practice on 5000
questions, it is recommended to do 500 questions (covering depth and width of the
content-scope) 10 times with detailed analysis rather than doing all 5000 questions
only once. It is this vacuum created by the need for a sophisticated and flexible
analysis tool that led to the creation of TCY Analytics – The most sought after
benchmarking tool for any test preparation.

TCY Analytics is a highly sophisticated benchmarking tool designed by TCYonline

that not only tracks the performance of a test aspirant but also follows a logical
approach to mentor him for improvement with each test that he takes. This
together with the fact that TCYonline has over 5 lakh users, which are growing each
day, makes it the largest benchmarking tool available.
TCY Analytics performs three roles in order to provide a scientific dimension to your
preparation for a test – be it CAT, GRE, GMAT, SAT, AIEEE, IIT, BAK PO et al. First, it
measures and records your topic-wise, sectional and difficulty-level wise
performance in each test. This ensures that you allocate your crucial study hours to
the weaker areas exposed by each test and eliminate the possibility of time-
wastage on doing anything and everything. The tool achieves this by presenting the
“time per question” graph, “percentage correct” graph and “accuracy achieved”
graph in a format that can be easily interpreted. The unique capability of the tool
to help you check your hold on a topic or a sub-topic at any point of time comes
handy.

Second, it allows you to benchmark your one-test or all-test-till-date performance

with friends and toppers. The flexibility offered by the tool is such that you can
benchmark yourself against toppers from a city, educational stream or gender. The
comparison is reflected in the form of graphs and tables.

Another unique role that TCY Analytics plays is to automatically recommend and
generate new and fresh topic-wise tests on your weaker areas at regular intervals. It
also keeps track of your wrong and un-attempted questions of the past and
presents them in the form of new tests. This aspect comes very handy in exams like
CAT wherein students are recommended to attempt nearly 65% questions with 85%
accuracy. That is, in each practice test, student had to skip nearly 35% of
challenging question types, which if not touched later with various approaches, may
leave him bamboozled in the real CAT. In this case, the TCYonline students stay one
step ahead of the rest by getting a chance to face such question types many times
before the final exam.

Hence, the opportunity for three dimensional analysis together with the need for a
sophisticated benchmarking tool has made TCY Analytics, the De-Facto method
of exam preparation. No wonder that the tool claims to have generated over 10
million analytics till date. With over 1400 tests happening each day on TCYonline,
the figure of 100 million analytics is not a distant dream.

TCYonline is No 1 testing and benchmarking platform that offers an un-beatable trio

of TCY Analytics, an online Test Generator and a fun-filled challenge Zone for the
test preparation.
