There are some, for whom, drinking 40 bottles of Pepsi in one go is a feat. There are others who would settle for nothing less than summiting Mt Everest. But here we present to you, the Great-Grandma-of-Them-All Munira Lokhandwala, who will settle for nothing less than a 100 percentile or close, in CAT year upon year upon year upon… Okay, we shut up now and pass the mic to Muneera to give us the dope about smacking time management into submission for cracking CAT.

These are her scores:
year overall percentile
2005 100 %ile
2004 99.99 %ile
2003 99.98 %ile

just wondering will she be again giving cat this year
as she has got no %ile to improve
or may be she can aim for individual 100%iles in all the sections this year

nice article

Somehow it circumvents the point that there is something called "aptitude" which is required to crack anything upwards of a 95%ile. It talks only about "prepration".

Plus DJK, there is some HTML formatting stuff you might want to clean up.

It seems Cracking CAT is her goal in life and I wish I could get any of the scores out of her 3 years score it would be worthwhile.

I think a regular high scorer can provide you more insights into what it takes to crack the exam. Would you study under a prof who has never cracked cat or somebody who has done it enough to times and can lead you down that path even if the exam pattern has changed every time in the last couple of years.

Muneera is an IIMC grad and as far as I know she marks the FPM option so that your IIM PGP calls aren't affected. I hope you guys do find something that might be of your help in the article

yess sirr....!!!!
I agree with u totally .
a person who can crack CAT 3 times in a row, is
someone who has shown
consistency and perspicacity ......i'll rather study under her
than some 2005(4)- passout grad who teaches maths
Hats of to her !!!!

Munira more than just a serial 100%iler.

She is big (6 ft +), awesome @ quant (you remember those crappy chacha choudhary comics where some guy supp thinks @ the speed of light/sound?), very well read ( 3 words - big esoteric library), and funny too. When I met her, I was thinking, Damn! going to meet nerdy 100%iler, but was very very wrong!

You can't really argue with someone who has such a strong past CAT track record, can you?

I think you missed the plot completely fella !!

BTW even if you appear for it year after year for the rest of your life, there is no guarantee you will end up with a 100%ile eventually.

Again, I think Muneera talks about test which she took in 7th grade and scored below average in it. But the fact remains that for most junta, there is certainly a "part" which cannot be honed with mere prep. Realize that this is a test where relative performance matters. Food for thought - if it were just prep then everyone should be getting a 99%ile. But that can never be the case...........
