Well, my story goes back to the year 2002, a grad from IIT CSE. I gave CAT 2002 little realizing its importance. Just gave it casually. Then, I got fooled that it is better to give CAT after 2 years work ex. Got into a company with 2 years bond in 2003. wanted 2 months preparation and i asked for leave, but they didnt provide me. so, i broke the bond and prepared for 2 months and got the calls from iim k,l. but, cudn't convert them.
Then, i worked for the next 1.5 years for CAT, always scoring more than 95%ile. This year CAT 2005 was the twister, since the focus changed from speed to accuracy. and i got the twist of my life with 33%ile in DI.
Then, all my plans got blank and i had to take up a job in May 2006. Then, again i worked for CAT again. This time again, i didn't secure into IIMs. In the meantime, i screwed up my technical skills and after 1 year of hard work, i was promised of team leader position in product based company. But, i was cheated due to some politics and in 2008, i had to leave my job for better prospects.
Then, came recession, lost my job and got into some contract job that didnt give boost to my technical skills. So, i planned to take once again for 2009 and worked day in and day out.
The competition has gone way beyond my expections and i dont know what my future lies now.
I didn't develop my technical skills, screwed up CAT and i am nowhere since the contract job has also ended. Now, after so many years, you can imagine where i am now. All my friends and my juniors are well settled and in good positions. I ditched plans to go abroad for further studies in 2003( bcoz i was depressed that my childhood sweetheart got married and i lost the meaning of life. and from then onwards as well, i didnt go abroad bcoz i had this sicko ideals of love for motherland which i regret now that i shud have gone abroad)
A grad from iit cse, with no strong technical skills, screwed up life. and suicide seems the only way for me. My life is completely messed up. I have plans to buy potassium cyanide for easy death from a well trusted resource. You can see how i am faring now.
My life is completely ruined.
suicide ??? plzz dont think of doing any thing silly like that , think about your parents ..how will they feel ... what i wolud say is try and settle in a place where theres less competiton for a few years ... and dont compare ur self to others ...believe in GOD try and listen to some SATSANG will help ...

I hope you will get through IBSAT and other exams whose results r yet to be announced.No need to get frustrated,if you gave your 100% and din't got results accordingly than it was destined and if you din't gave 100% effort then its better to pull socks for next year ,rather to get frustrated and being negative.
BTW you scored better than me in SNAP and XAT :)

Hi ,
Thanks Ashish and Rohan for giving some inspiration.Another rejection from SITM i am dejected at my fate as ,prepared left job still no calls.Nor i am able to do the preparation of other upcoming exams, what would i do ,i am totally hopeless.what can i do ? As mentioned this was my last attempt for MBA ,with an experience of 50 months .still nonthing in my hand.
Please help me .
Thanks,
See, for now find a job for yourself.If other exams are left then give them with full conviction.I have seen people doing MBA at an age of 50 so i don't understand that why its your last chance for MBA.But if it was your last chance so that is also fine....Dhiru bhai ambani,Subhash chandra and many more successful people din't pursed MBA to get successful in life.If you have it in yourself then you will achieve success in life.

dreamz unlmtd Saysmy friend is pursuing bba n is in her fiinal year.....she is planning to drop her year....fr mba prep.....wat shud she do in this period to make her profile look good...???plz help....
She should look for a job and join it.MBA preparation can be done while doing a job.It will help her in many ways....many B-schools give preference to work experience moreover "khaali dimag shaitan ka ghar hota hai" and guys noone study 24*365 so tell her to join a job and prepare for MBA side by side.

Hi, I am a student right now doing engineering from a well renowned institute of India. But due to some up and downs in my life, which affected me much. I had also thought of suicide but meanwhile I came to know about a blog which changed my perception about life. Now too, when I don't feel well, I like to visit that blog. As I thought this blog is pretty useful for you too. So I am providing the link below. Visit it once. Your perception will surely change. Best Wishes from my side...

well sometimes the approach matters.You should consult with your coaching mentors.They will be able to guide you better on the flaws you make.I meant to say that your score in SNAP and XAT is better than mine.Don't feel dejected and try to find that error which you are making and resolve it.Do well in upcoming papers and if still it doesn't happens this year then take a job and prepare for MBA side by side to give a fight next year.
Man... i too m feeling so frustrated..
i started preparing for My MBA dream 6 months ago... i wasn't sure that il make it or not.. coz i had less tym.. but i studies hard... and after a few bad mocks... started getting average scores.. in 90+ range.. my mentors said.. u cn do it.. in d exam... and here i m in front of u ppl.. after getting a meagre 81.65 percentile in XAT.. while one of my classmate who always used to be jealous of me got 95%ile and now luks at me like i m a loser... 😞 😞 i feel so dejected.... i dunno who decieved me my luck or my hard work or wotever.... but i m feeling so dejected and frustrated... feeling lyk crying... 😞 :-(
There is nothing to get frustated my friend
you are not the only one who has been betrayed by luck.
i strated mt preparation in final year of engineering at NIT
CL used to have 12 mocks that time
i consistently scored >95%tile in the mocks
was in the topper's list in mock 12
my trainer satish always used to say, it the 13th mock (cat itself that would matter. My friends had started calling me future IIMite...everyone was more wooried about my result than their own
and the result- i got 83.88 %tile. i had rarely one below 90 in the mocks
XAT = 90%tile
the next year (200 i prepared harder. i was determined not to leave any stone unturned to crack CAT. i had to jon reliance energy in july 2008, i was sent a a remote location in UP , where i did no have access to coaching or mocks. add to this 14 hours of work per day INCLUDING SUNDAY. still i continued my prep.
2 days before CAT, due to a mis-happening in my family i had to go home. I could not appear at CAT and IIFT. one more year had gone
CAT 2009. the season started with 99.5 %tile in mock 1
CAT went well
But XAT was a complete disaster = 87.6 percentile for someone who has been a consistent performer in all mocks
But I am not frustated as you are, because i beleive in myself. I know that today or tommorrow, i am going to make it big- with or without an iim degree. remeber my friend, IIM is not the end of life.
srktugga SaysHi Puys.I have written everything this season.IIFT,CAT,JMET,SNAP,XAT,FMS.I thought i did well in SNAP but got only 88.5.I thought i would get a call from SIIB and SIBM-B.But it did'nt happen.This Feb,I will be completing 36 months in Accenture.I am really frustrated and worried abt my future.Im writing NMAT,MAHCET and MICA.I am not able to give my best to NMAT and other future exam preparations.Dreams of an MBA are slowly withering away.Someone plz tell me what to do.
Hi, srry to say this but what kind of frustrated person are you who is seeking for inspiration. Frustrated persons dont asks for motivation. You are making other people frustrated by such threads.
Arre yaar just work hard, u will definitely get a gud college next year and its gud ur working in accenture the biggest IT company. Give thx to God for ur in such a good position and never be frustrated. Its all in the state of mind !!!!! and dont make Pagal guy a community of Rotuuu Guys !!
cheer up man :drinking::drinking::
yup dude.....
but i will choose only best means the results of exam which i have gave to u.....i just want to go in that otherwise not..........
Did God created us because he wanted that we should do our engineering from IIT,MIT or MBA from IIM,ISB or PG from Harvard,Cambridge.This web is created by us.Life never starts from IIT/IIM/Harvard blah blah or ends at them.
Keep focus on what you want to achieve(when i say achieve i don't mean money) and look all the paths through which you can reach there or get close to it.Life is not about earning 15lakhs annually,having a car,a bungalow,holidays in Mauritius and blah blah.You will not take any of these things with you once to leave your body.Try to live a life which is away from materialism and more based on humanity and love.When you are in grief,remember the most beautiful days of your life.
Can you count the number of days when you were most happy??? Compare you life span till now and see how less were those days of happiness....start enjoying each and everyday.Happiness is pursuit when its looked for.
If our freedom fighters had thought negative and felt dejected then i am afraid we would still being ruled by Britishers.

if you can, try to cheer up ppl who are feeling bad about results. Why do you think pagalguy is not here to motivate people. it is not just a forum to give info on b-schools. As you said, it is in the state of mind. Its applicable to u as well my dear friend.
Please Remember everyone here is to get/give career help of one form or the other
Each one of us has got a story hun?
Gave CAT '08 in my TY. Scored 94 percentile. Applied ONLY to MICA. Got offered a spot admission for 2009-11 (For those who dont know - MICA's GE Π results are in 4 brackets - spot admission, merit list, waiting list & Rejects) And couldnt take up the admission because my HOD in college never allowed me to give my final year exams. I knew all along when I had applied to MICA that i couldnt take it up even if i got the seat. The ONE chance I had to wipe away my past and get into my dream college and have a shot at a good future ahead had to be given up...(Various reasons for each year but this was the 4th year i have lost academically)
This time, am attending college, appearing for entrances, getting disappointed (SNAP score - 91) and am still nowhere. But u know what? Its okay. there is more to come
The most important thing to remember is - DONT LOSE CONFIDENCE. when u have your reasons well sorted out about why you want to do that MBA, its easy to convince. u just have to speak your mind. if u doubt yourself, people can see through you. u need to know that there are a good many capable people like you out there waiting for their green day and not getting thru to any college right now is not a fact that should make you judge your capability.
if u've scored 88.5 in SNAP, dude, u r good. its not time to change the course of action, just fine tune it. here's your course of action -
1) race against time to solve the max no of ques - u'll need speed wid accuracy
2) start practising solving multiplications, divisions & easy sums (MCET level) mentally
3) stop brooding over really difficult questions (CAT/XAT) level. You wont need them for any test to come for this academic year, go for the easy ones directly
4) when u start any mock paper / the real exam - believe that u'll do your best - that u r competing only with yourself and most importantly - BELIEVE that u have nothing to lose - its crazy what that piece of information works like in your brain :)
5) Call up your mom 😃 there's one person u mean the world to who'll never stop believing that u r the best and that all things good should come to you 😃

I too want to share my views.First of all ever u fell dejected or loser do:
1) "note down ur all the achievements till now" and yes you must accept that achievements doesnt mean just related to academics.Try to figure out nd remember those lil things in life which gifted a smile 2 u.
2) lie down on grass or on ground and look at sky in night.I am sure u will feel relieved.
3) Accept the fact that MBA is much more hyped now than it is.And the result is that those in need are suffering even after there hard work just bcoz thr r some fools in our country who just give CAT nd want to do MBA to get attention from everywhere.
Dont over emphasize on any thing. We all have right to dream about IIM and some of the lucky ones see it.Do u really feel those who have made to IIMs r doing very well in there life.Well I dont think so,and only reason is that they didnt need it.
I am not asking you to giveup.I never giveup. If you want to really persue management education from IIMs then sure give one more shot but pls dont depend on it.And all of us hav experienced this yrs CAT.So u cant rely on anything.

Man, Life is way way way way too precious, How I wish I could live for next 500 years
well..here goes my story...
i started preparing for these exams in 2008 july...i colud not give cat2009 because of less marks in 1st and 2nd year..and hence all other exams too din not go well...so the result was i had to drop a year...
meanwhile i studied for 3rd year exams and managed to get good marks...
i decided to give these management exams a second shot...i studied for these exams till date..meanwhile i also took up classes for gmat...so basically in these 2 years starting from 2008 till today i took up clases for cat as well as gmat...
regarding gamt, i still confused whether to give it or not because it is already late for this years admissions..
now i am almost through with this seasons exams..
and i can see my chances of getting into my dream colleges bleak...
if i dont make it to my dream colleges, i will have no choice but to settle for mediocre college or colleges which i never even dream of..((( ....
now i feel only a miracle can save me...
Well... I could relate to each and everyone emotionally here....Mine condition is no different then the majority of puys here....did my engg. from a very good college and then was forced to sit for the first company which came to my college for campus selection...unfortunately got placed in the sector I hated to the core(read S/W)....was not allowed to sit for any core companies thereafter:lookround::lookround:....finally was forced to join the same bloody s/w industry.....and now I'm in this shit for more then 2 years,programming in different platforms and technologies without any zeal to do that.....also developed affinity for arrack during this time just to beat my frustration out... trying really hard to move from this place but don't know whether I'll succeed this year or will be screwing my another 1 year in this place.....this was not just to gain any sympathy or similar stuff like that.....this was just to share my frustration with fellow puys....but I'm not feeling down and dejected as whole....some more papers to go,some more results to see and some more hopes for a better career and future.....and this one is for you all(including me)...
"Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies"

Dost believe in yourself....all is not lost...we still have the FMS and CAT results to be declared yet....and you'll definitely score big in them....and about miracle thing-they do happen...There are two ways to live: you can live as if nothing is a miracle; you can live as if everything is a miracle.
