Story of serious CAT 2012 aspirant!

Hurrah! Now the time has come to compete at CAT and I was waiting for this for the last six months. I had been preparing for exam for the last so many months. 

I had my own problems as I am working in IT Company hence; time is very precious commodity for me. When I went through Mock Tests I found that am miserable poor in DI and QA sections whereas I perceived for myself to be excellent in these sections. 

Later on SWOT, I found that my practice is minimal so took decision to hire driver so that on way and return from office I got three hours to practice CAT sections. In all, I have put in more than 500 hours on tests. 

I am fully prepared to be successful in CAT 2012.

After CAT exam what?

Computer based test CAT will not be only hurdle to clear on way to admission for IIMs rather you can treat is as first stepping stone. 

With CAT you are judged only for your analytical skills and for that matter two sections of CAT like DI/QA & LR/VA are sufficient within a time frame. 

Afterwards when you are shortlisted for second phase of selection process on the basis of your percentile, you will be tested and grilled for your soft skills like communication, confidence, presence of mind, attitude and over all body language. 

Competition will be more fierce and certain amount of subjectivity is involved in these tests hence, IIMs will measure you for your academic achievements also. In certain cases work experience is also taken in account. 

Aspirants are advised to take up soft skill subjects immediately after exam as time will be too less for unwritten rules.

Forget high percentile if fundamentals are not clear

MBA aspirants who dreamt of taking admission in any of IIMs know that scoring with almost 95 + percentile can facilitate you to get interview call letter from IIMs 

IIM A, B or C will call those who have scored 99 percentile and competition may force that some may still miss by point percentile.

For clearing CAT, it is must for aspirants to be clear in fundamentals. No harm in consulting NCERT books to revisit formulas of 10^th or 12th standard.

It is after that you can pick up speed & accuracy with Mock Tests. For sure you can clear CAT sections DI /VA and LR/RC easily.

Those aspirants who are still struggling on accuracy may have to forget high percentile so either they will seek admission in non IIMs or try luck next time.
