Frequently asked questions
What is XAT?
XAT stands for Xavier Aptitude Test 2026: Part 1 and is an entrance examination in the Management group. It is a single-stage XAT 2027 paper.
What is the XAT exam pattern?
XAT has 95 questions worth 95 marks in 180 minutes, covering Verbal and Logical Ability (26 questions, 26 marks), Decision Making (21 questions, 21 marks), Quantitative Ability and Data Interpretation (28 questions, 28 marks), General Knowledge (20 questions, 20 marks). This pattern is marked review-pending: it rests on consistent corroboration from secondary sources because the examining body's own document could not be read directly, so check it against the official notification before you rely on it.
Is there negative marking in XAT?
Yes. Each incorrect answer deducts 0.25 marks in XAT, and an unanswered question scores zero.
Is this XAT pattern up to date?
The figures on this page describe the XAT pattern for the 2027 cycle and were last checked on 6 September 2026, against the source linked on this page. It carries a review-pending label rather than an official one, which is shown on the page rather than hidden.
Does this mock test cover the official XAT syllabus?
The XAT tests here are built to the sections the official pattern names (Verbal and Logical Ability, Decision Making, Quantitative Ability and Data Interpretation, General Knowledge), and each is checked against that pattern before it is published. Granular topic labels beneath those sections are a TakeMockTest preparation map, not an official subtopic list, unless stated otherwise.
