🐈 CAT Exam 2020-21 Preparation, Exam Dates, Results & Discussion – PaGaLGuY (Part 1)

I am pretty confused in applying process. Some colleges are saying that their last date to apply is 2nd December (i.e before cat) and we need to pay their application fees. How do we apply for the colleges ? As we don't have the CAT results in our hand yet . So on what basis do i need to apply in colleges ? I have short listed imt , great lakes ,mdi , sp.jain and some more but i guess its very risky to pay them their application fees before getting the result . So , help me . Regards. Deadlines of application will be extended ?

How would you rate the difficulty level of CAT mocks of CL, Oliveboard and Aimcat?

FMS ke form ke alaawa kuch aur post to nhi krna na saath mein

do we have to register for XLRI separately or XAT registration will do ?

can anyone plz tell me which is the most preferred program of IMT ghaziabad for which final merit no cutoff, which is calculated after interview process goes highest? Can u arrange me all the programs in order of the final merit cutoff higher to lower from PGDM, PGDM marketing and finance and PGDM dual country based on previous years data ? Plz reply asap. Waiting for filling the form Also which 2 IMT campuses are best after IMT ghaziabaad?

 

5 days to CAT: The PaGaLGuY song of the day is…

There has always been and always will be music for every mood. With not even a week remaining for CAT 2016, you are probably trying to seek refuge in music too, trying to find a song to best depict your current state of mind. In our endeavour to make your last few days of preparation a bit more enjoyable, PaGaLGuY will bring you a song each day, which we think will best portray your mindset. If you are oscillating between extreme emotions – from a state of hyper anxiousness to that of complete ‘jo hoga dekha jayega’ attitude, remember that we, along with our playlist will always be there for you, cheering you on.
So, without further ado, the first song from our playlist, (wait for it...*drumroll* ) is ‘ Ratta Maar’ from the film, ‘Student of the Year’. Hey, wait a minute, don't get disappointed with the song already. I agree our earlier interview with CAT 2015 Topper, Sabyasachi Mishra, stated that students should avoid learning anything new in the last minute, but we must acknowledge the efforts of the lyricist, Anvita Dutt Guptan, for making use of some very interesting metaphors to motivate students. C'mon, there are very few songs that equate one's mind to that of a pressure cooker, or make effective use of onomatopoeia like ‘patak patak’ to break the so called ‘knowledge ki deewar’ or the ‘ghis ghis’ to sharpen your mind . Brings back sweet memories of Rosesh from Sarabhai vs Sarabhai, doesn’t it?
Also, we know CAT doesn’t involve ‘Ratta Mar’ (memorising), except for some formulas, perhaps, but our motive behind selecting this one was only for you to appreciate the lyrical masterpiece that this is!! Lose yourself to the lyrics and you may just rediscover your motivation to give it your best shot, for as the song goes, ‘O bhool ja average, chadh ja tu kitabo ke pahaad... Ratta Maar!!’
Watch out this space for more such songs till the D-Day and stay tuned for PaGaLGuY's live CAT updates of the exam on December 4. Leave a comment with your favourite song of the day..

I completed my puc in 2010 and will complete my graduation next year.so i want to ask will i get a call from iim a b or c if i get a 99 or more percentile. Please help. I am giving cat 2016

Recent i filled tiss application n uploaded nc obc certificate. Today i got a mail stating that the said certificate has been rejected. After calling them, they mentioned that certificate issued date was 1.1.2016 and they needed certificates issued after 1.04.2016. I asked if i could upload the new certificate after a week, they rejected the request straight away stating that since i have already made the payment, they couldn't change anything. Isn't it a bit harsh and autocratic to straight away reject the request without any way to submit it again

I have filled my cg as 6.48 instead of 6.45 everyhwere! Would it be a reason to disqualify my application if I own up to the mistake once I am shortlisted? 

 Hey people! So how did you like our first song post – Ratta Maar, yesterday? Motivated enough? Well, a tad bit, I'm sure. For those of you, who somehow missed it, you can read our post and listen to the song here

Anyway, let's talk about the second song in our series, which is Hakuna Matata. I'm sure you'll have all heard this one, from Lion King. If you haven't, well we have one question for you – How long has that head of yours been inside that book! (Yes we are totally judging you!)Translated from Swahili, it quite literally means ‘no worries for the rest of your days’. Don't give us that----, "if only real life lived up to the expectations of a meerkat named Timon and a warthog named Pumba, our lives would all be free of worries,"--- response. It's only an exam, not a life and death situation. If they could convince a Lion to eat insects, we believe, we can convince you to take life, let alone this exam, a little lightly. So sit back, relax and calm your nerves and listen to Hakuna Matata – for it’s a problem free philosophy!!
