'Should You Target IIM Ahmedabad?', And 5 Other Key Questions Answered By CAT, XAT Toppers https://cutt.ly/xbA8qV5


The CAT exam is one of the most competitive entrance exams in India, and cracking the exam itself is no easy task; in fact, it is not unheard of CAT aspirants attempting the exam even five times before finally making it to their dream IIMs.


We brought together five MBA students from India's top business schools, including IIMs Ahmedabad and Calcutta, to share some invaluable tips on CAT preparation and answer some important questions.Ā 


Here are the six key questions that students from IIM Ahmedabad, IIM Calcutta, IIM Lucknow, XLRI, and SPJIMR answered with brutal honesty.Ā

Even with 99.89 %ile I did not get call from FMS or SP JAIN.Ā 

Why??


Because I had no idea there are colleges named FMS or SP JAIN and hence could not apply.


Was it ignorance? Maybe


But I would call it keeping "razor sharp focus" on battle named cracking CAT that everything else would just disappear.


Separating insight from noise is a skill that comes with a clear sense of purpose.


By just having a clear sense of purpose while approaching CAT 2021 is going to place you ahead of significant chunk of people.


Hence pls dont focus on finding out percentiles at which you will have realistic chance in any particular college


Only thing in your control for next 6 months is maximising your %ile by having focussed preparation for CAT.


Reach out to express interest in case you want a elaborate strategy to kick start your preparation and get a competitive edge!

Hi. I am a fresher. I will be joining a company in September 2021. I had appeared for CAT 2020. Didn't perform good enough and had started my preparation for CAT 2021. In the meantime I got this job offer. Now I do not want to sit for CAT2021 anymore. I want a break from this preparation and want to join my company with a fresh mind. I wish to appear again in 2022 and 2023. Will go for MBA in 2022 itself if I get a decent college. 2023 will be my last attempt. I am confused as to whether this is the right decision. Kindly help. The main reason why I do not want to sit for CAT 2021 is I do not want to enter a B-school with just 5-6 months of work ex. Am I thinking on the right track? Really confused.
