YOUR TEACHER

Your Teacher : Dr. Mansoor Agha

Most teachers who train students for CSAT come from a Mathematics and English background, but CSAT is an aptitude test. Aptitude tests are modified intelligence tests, so CSAT tests for intelligence though the questions are framed in the language of English and Mathematics. CSAT needs a teacher who comes from Psychology background, specifically Psychometry background.
