Hi puys, I have been late here in posting my scores :

QA - Time given - 55 minutes - 12 attempts, 12 correct - score 48
DI - Time given - 55 minutes - 15 attempts, 14 corrcet - score 55
VA - Time given - 40 minutes - 20 attempts, I have 2 correct out of 6 questions whose answers I know. Baki sab ka pata nahin , but with even 50% accuracy in VA, I would get 30. Only a speculation though.

So, overall should be around 130.

Started with quant, started looking for sitters to give me some confidence, tried doing a few problems, but first 10 minutes mein 1 bhi question nahin bana. Now, I knew I won't get the answers that easily, there were very few sitters in quant, and I had to spent more time on each question. After that did some 10 questions in next 40 minutes.

Came to DI, again started searching for a sitter set that would give me some confidence, and luckily there were many in DI, did around 13 questions in 45 odd minutes. DI was easy, and somehow realising that at this time I have cleared the cut-off in DI(don't know why, I had never done it in any mocks), went back to qaunt, where I felt I should attempt a bit more. Did 2 more questions in quant in 5 minutes.

Lat 45 minutes left, and I went to VA, and here came a surprise, found that I have missed an entire DI set (AJ wala), I was in a shock, my form was 111, and it might have happened to some other guys as well, missing out on the last DI set (since the previous page had 3/4th of it empty, so I thought DI is over here ).??:
I decided I just can't leave this set. Did 2 questions from this set in 5 minutes (Only wrong question in DI I got was in this set).

Then last 40 minutes for VA, 20 attempts, no idea how many correct.

But i am glad to see my accuracy in QA and DI. My attempts were modest, but accuracy saved the day for me .

VA mein 50 % bhi accuracy aa jaye bus, cut-off clear ho jaye.

@phantom and ashish : With 110 plus score, I am sure there will be 3-4 calls for you

@Greenspan : Great spirit buddy, you were a source of inspiration for many, and you still remain the source of inspiration. And I am sure you will bounce back, the game is not over yet


-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Edited after CAT Result:

VERDICT : Got all 6 calls, BLACKI

Section----Marks------Percentile
---QA-------48------------99.43
---DI-------- 55------------98.75

Some good scores as usual by UDT..
But I think I faltered again in this last exam. Thanks Krishanu for that wonderful post..

Greenspan buddy, you know how well u can bounce back.. I need not give all that gyaan to you. You were one of the best and still everything is not over

"Its not over, till its over."

I didnt feel like computing my exact scores.. Checked many questions with Anir and VA is damned. I dont want to make any score predictions for me. Will just wait for Jan 8th. Or better still will try to forget that I ever wrote CAT 2007(I know its impossible.)

Got the FMS and XAT forms, I think I should go ahead filling them.
Probably, Some things are not made for each other. Mac and IIMs.

Thanks for showing some faith in me. One day I will live upto it.

I am getting a feeling of being betrayed..always backed on my quants..but as the fate wanted it to be..totally screwed my favorite section...didn't had courage to check other two scores...sorry guys for spreading the negative energy in the forum..:neutral:...but that does not mean that I am out of this business...will bounce back...my roommate who always scored 70-80ish percentiles in AIMCAT and always got less score than me in quants and as a matter of fact..I helped him in quants(believe me guys my morale is to down to boast about anything) is getting a 38 in quants and overall..128 with even splits...wake up this morning hoping that yesterday was a bad dream...

My fellow UDTians,
Apologies for being so dormant u'd have thought I had gone into hibernation. Yes, it was my fault, I accept it.
Secondly, to everyone who has not performed up to their expectations (that includes u, Prem and u, Greenspan), there are battles yet to be fought. We are UDT-2k7. Remember the motto- “When the going gets tough, UDT gets going”?? Now it is time to prove the saying. Things CANNOT possibly get tougher than this. And whatever bu**-sh** we’ve done in the paper, we cannot do worse. So let’s show those setting the IIFT paper and others to follow some good ol’ fight!

And thirdly, my scores:
QA- 34 (11 attempt, 9 correct. Discovered that 10-3-3=3 in the paper and missed out on the ODD word while finding m and n. Is there a worse way to lose marks?? If so, I don’t want to know.)

DI- 60 (20 attempt, 16 correct. Equally silly mistakes here.)

VA- 50 (IMS)/ 30 (TIME). Dunno wat to say about the stupid coaching insti’s if they can’t figure out the correct answers for even this paper.

Overall- 144 (IMS)/ 124(TIME).

After seeing my scores, Im damn sure the IMS keys are much better.

Anyways, there are still battles to be fought and bruises to be taken. Until then, ciao.

Finally, Its all over

I felt it was a moderately difficult paper with an unorthodox quant paper, tough va and moderately easy DI paper.

My take on the cutoffs
QA : 20
DI : 30
VA : 22

I donno whether I stand a chance or not I still have a lil ray of hope. Deep in my heart, something says that the game has just begun. I shall keep my fingers crossed and hope for the best ... Rest

Remember When the going gets tuff, UDT gets going I am still an UNDERDOG

But more importantly, and indeed regretfully I have let many of you, including myself, down.

It was a debacle for me today. I will not go into what went wrong, but only into how wrong it went.

Scores as per the answer keys (TCY/IMS)...
VA 8/6(26) 8/6(26)
QA 6/3(21) 7/2(26)
DI 7/6(22) 9/7(29)...some qns not answered yet at tcy

OS 69 81


Close friends would say wtf. But I won't complain.
I was genuinely and fairly beaten.

I salute all those who would have cracked this paper. And I am sure a bunch of UDTians indeed did. You definitely deserve it. But the battle is far from over. Keep your heads down and don't let the momentum go away. ATB.

As for me, I will still be around, and elsewhere (other bschool threads)... My salvation lies there...

It has been a privilege to be a UDTian, but the heart wrenches just a tad bit, for not having kept upto its standards. But I remember what Andy Dufresne wrote in a letter to Red. And I guess I have a lot many good things in me......Now where is the smiley where you feel numb inside, but you still smile and say "All is well"? Guess will have to do with this.

sh** happens dude(I am also in a similar situation as yours)..the real test begins now when the chips are down...you might have lost a battle but it is upto you now to win the war...Am sure your hard work and talents will bear rich fruit...All the very best for the rest of the tests.

Finally the wait is over…Iam out of the anguish….

I knew I had screwed it up, but never expected this badly..It was a nice learning though, getting a single digit score in your strongest section always makes you to come back to the ground.Its a hard fact, still I need to accept it as it is a fact, I cant do anything to change it.

My scores (just to inform my wellwishers)

QA-single digit
DI-49
VA-10-18

So its all over….Bye Bye to IIMs now.Thanks for all the support & affection.Thanks for all the motivations.Thanks for all the phone calls/SMS/scraps to console me….

End of the day life has to move on….I will be always available on & off PG as a friend & guide..All the Best to everyone here….

Congrats to puys who have killed the feline….For others keep moving…Never feel that you have failed as life would be ready to offer you much more chances, much more successes than you expect, much more failures than this one….

Always remember till you loose your life , nothing you have actually lost. I know its an undue gyan, but through this post Iam actually trying to console all those weaker hearts & trying to appreciate all those brave souls who are going to accept this failure with a smile..Any help required, remember Iam just a call/PM away…

Once again all the best to puys..Remember, when it comes to GD/PI, CAT is nothing infront of it..Its so tormenting, still you need to pass it to reach your dream destinies..

Believe in yourselves & Just do it….
