FINALLY JOINING: Still debating over IIMB or IIMC
PIECE OF ADVICE:I will give all the fresher these warnings
WARNING 1:Begin preparation for current affairs long in advance(dnt think u can start after u get GD/PI calls)
WARNING 2:As a fresher there isn't much scope of what they can ask u so do prepare for acads (maybe not high fi grilling but be thorough with basics)
WARNING 3ont lose focus if u dont answer one q.Just keep ur calm and smile(That is important )
Well enuff warnings.And remember to keep cool.Well best of luck to those joining any B-School and even more for those riting CAT-2005

seems to me that I am one of the very few who cudnt convert the big ones despite a good percentile--had 99.45% overall with very decent cut-offs--calls from b,c,l& k---converted only K and headed there.(no other option)
anyways, congratulations & all the best to all the pgites.
