CAT Question Bank

Future Year Questions

Real questions, full video solutions, written explanations — by ALP Sir.

Future Year Questions (FYQs) are real questions pulled from previous years’ CAT papers, organized topic by topic across VARC, DILR, and QA. Instead of working through an old paper start to finish, FYQs let you drill a single topic — say, Time & Work, or Reading Comprehension inference questions — against every relevant question CAT has actually asked in recent years.

This matters because CAT rewards pattern recognition as much as raw ability. The same question types, traps, and shortcuts tend to resurface year after year in slightly different dressing. Working through FYQs topic-by-topic — rather than year-by-year — builds the kind of familiarity that lets you recognize a question’s underlying structure within seconds of reading it, which is often the real difference between a 90th and 99th percentile performance.

Every question in this bank has been personally selected by ALP Sir (99.93 percentile CAT, 770 GMAT), who curates for questions that best reveal how a topic is actually tested — not just any past question, but ones that expose common traps and efficient approaches. Each comes with a full video walkthrough and a written explanation, so you can review however suits you best. Browsing the full bank — every topic, every question title — is completely free.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are CAT Future Year Questions (FYQs)?
FYQs are real questions from previous years' CAT exams, organized by topic — VARC, DILR, and QA — each with a full video solution and written explanation by ALP Sir. They show you exactly how CAT questions are actually framed, not simplified practice versions.
How are FYQs different from PYQs?
PYQ (Previous Year Questions) is the general term for any past exam question. FYQs on GRADSKOOL are a curated subset — specifically selected and organized by topic and difficulty, with the aim of building topic-wise mastery rather than just reviewing an old paper end to end.
Are video solutions included with every FYQ?
Yes. Every question includes a full video walkthrough by ALP Sir explaining the approach, plus a written explanation for quick revision. Some questions also have a downloadable PDF for offline practice.
How does ALP Sir curate which questions to include?
ALP Sir personally selects questions that best represent how a topic is actually tested in CAT — prioritizing questions that reveal common traps, efficient shortcuts, and patterns that repeat across years, rather than including every past question indiscriminately.
Is the FYQ bank free to use?
Browsing the FYQ bank — every topic, every question title — is completely free and requires no signup. Full video solutions are available as part of GRADSKOOL courses.
How often are new FYQs added?
The FYQ bank is updated as new exam years are analyzed and as ALP Sir identifies additional high-value questions worth adding to each topic.
