Things I’ve learnt from CAT ’12

Posted by | Oct 26, 2012 | , , |

Ever since I took the CAT on Day 1 (Oct 11), I’ve been meaning to jot down some pointers for all of you. Though nothing really has changed from last year, there are a few things that you need to keep mind. Now, just when I was beginning to think I’d never get around to writing it down, someone suggested a video post. So here it is, my first ever video post on this blog. Quick thoughts on CAT ’12 and my take on how you should be attempting it… Watch the video...

What’s up with CAT ’12…

Posted by | Oct 25, 2012 | , , , |

It’s been over 10 days since I took the CAT on Oct 11. Since then, many of us at CL have taken the exam and they have been sharing their feedback and updates with me. Here’s what it looks like…   The latest update The latest verdict is that the exam has been on the tough side. Section I, Quantitative Aptitude and Data Interpretation, has been a tough nut to crack in almost all the slots, if we ignore a couple of lucky days where the students found the section doable.

Tomorrow’s the day it all starts, the D-Day you’ve all been preparing for all year round. From now on it’ll be a whirlwind of exams, interviews, discussions, results, cut-offs and finally you will be off to a B-School.

First-ever Online SQC…it’s a housefull!

Posted by | Sep 6, 2012 | |

Jiska koi nahi hota uska online SQC hota hai. Just a day or two ago I was worried how I’d be able to cover maximum cities for Smart Quant Cracker before CAT.
