Interview of an IIM student

Today, I read about the journey of a guy into the IIM’s. And it is inspiring, thought-provoking and interesting. I need not say anything more.

Here is the link to the interview page:

Is it a bird? A Plane? No! It’s the mighty CAT

I almost got a nervous break down! I attempted one more Mock CAT and I scored half of what I scored before. I wrote a nervous mail to the website I am studying on about how I feel I won’t be able to cope up. They wrote back a nice mail giving me some tips and pointed out where I might have gone wrong. I should:

1. Analyze ALL the Mock CAT’s and try to put a finger to the problem. (I’ve decided to spend an hour after giving the Mock CAT to check my online CAT paper thoroughly).
2. Not spend too much time on any section (Need to practice MORE Mental Maths even it means playing more of the Mental Math games on the website).
3. Practice reading e-books (ok but only when I will find time)
4. Not take the result of any one Mock CAT too seriously (hmm.. this is tricky)

Good enough. More or less I needed a guiding factor, which I got. Now it’s upto me to crack CAT 2009 and get a good percentile. There is a seat waiting for me in one of my dream B-Schools and I’m going to make it there!
