CAT and Related DiscussionDiscuss information and B-schools under the toughest and most exclusive management entrance exam in India. The CAT - The Common Admission Test.
This article has really put things in perspective. Day-in and Day-out, we prepare "solidly" for CAT, memorising formulae, increasing the reading speed, cramming words, percentages, reciprocals.... et al.. We do all this without understanding the very purpose or logic behind the Test - i.e. to dig out really good managers.
So putting oneself in the shoes of a good manager should lead us in successfully scoring in the CAT.
A great article indeed. This shows that CAT isn't testing us for Quant/DI/VA but actually it is indeed a test of managerial abilities to get into a management institute to become a manager. Rocking Post.
