Primary answer

XAT is generally considered different rather than strictly more difficult than CAT. While CAT focuses heavily on quantitative aptitude, logical reasoning, and speed, XAT emphasizes decision-making ability and verbal reasoning at a deeper level. Many candidates find the Decision Making section challenging, which makes XAT distinct in terms of preparation strategy.
