CAT 2008 Aspirants - 27-10-2007, 12:10 PM

I know this thread to many of you seems to be weird when the CAT 2007 is round the corner. I am working in IT industry for last three years in Bangalore. But kind of not comfortable with the whole technical stuff though I have done a lot of it.

I am planning to make management as an career not only because of my technical work exposure but also due my strengths and weaknesses. What can be obvious choice than IIM's for it. I am targeting IIM's for the next year.

As being working it is quite obvious I cannot devote the same time as the engineering student for the preparation, I have decide to start early.

I am sure there are lot of people with the similar objective, lets come together to motivate, share and keep us going for the long journey of Cracking CAT 2008.

I am going to start my Quant preparation from getting hold of the basics of quant from Arun Sharma and alongwith planning to target to finish atleast a book/novel in a month.

Please share how u r planning to start your preparation alongwith the experience of your Cat exam after 18.

Best of luck for your exam.

Alongwith the sharing of resources and prepration strategy for Cat 2008...

lets make the reporting system....We start with sharing the plan alongwith sharing the progress once in every two weeks....I think this will benefit us in two ways first to keep us motivated...second to track our progress...

What u guys says... more suggestion are welcome for the 2008 MBA prepration strategy..

Let me initiate it...though it is festive season...

In coming two week I will finish 4 chapter of Arun Sharma.
Alongwith a book "The God of small things"

Please note this not done for the purpose of exhibiting our preparations...Just for the purpose to stick on the tough road ahead....

Arun sharma is only for the purpose to refresh the basic of quant which many of the people like me have forgotten the basic taught some 8 years back... Definately once I got hold of basics will move to lot of practice questions of Cat standards...
