I had joined IMS for CAT2004 and prepared for it with full focus. However things went wrong with serious health problems and i couldnt appear for CAT. I had scored some 89% in initial IMS Simcats thats what i can say. I am from mumbai but working in pune in a software company. Just say me hi on yahoo chat and i assure rest will be history! Together we can and we will make to IIMA.


I stay at ShivajiNagar, Pune..
is reading place available in pune like we had in Mumbai???

Am I late..??? I guess not....
Lemme introduce myself as one of the senior members of this wonderful forum.. I have taken CAT twice.. 2003 and 2004 .. but on both occassions had to bite dust..
CAT 2003 : overall percentie of 97.34 calls: MDI, SPJain, NITIE.. converted MDI..but dint go.
CAT 2004 : overall percentile of 94.58 calls: 0 .
Now am back to the den...
I am very new to Pune.. just joined Tata Consultancy Services a few months back. Had my initial training in Trivandrum .. was allocated to Pune.. and joined Pune on 25th January..Curently am staying at Vimannagar..( with 3 more friends.. none of them are interested in CAT) My hectic work schedule won't permit me to attend any classroom training.. but I'll be availing CL's or TIME's correspondence.. and wud be going for a test series as well ( most probably TIME.. )
Now a days I am trying to improve on my reading skills.. .. will start with the basics in march..Today I took the IMS prelim test..i took it as a warm up excercise.. didn't score well but ya.. got a taste of CAT..
Nice to see ppl turning up for this thread.. we can surely meet someday to schedule /plan our preps..
that's it for the time being..
will write more,

Hi Govi and all,

I m joining TIME weekday morning course 6.45 to 8.45 as in my company u ve control over when 2 come but not over when 2 leave...........Yes I m working in software company!!!! called Persistent Systems better known as PSPL in Pune.

Yes, i m glad 2 see good reply to this thread after a while.

Govi, plz let me know abt faculty at TIME Pune once u attend couple of classes. actually i ven`t join it and planning 2 join in first or second week of march...

i m confident we will learn a good stuff fr each others experience .

hey guys how r u doing preparation for RC and DI
as these areas cover around 50% of actual CAT paper.......

i m thinking abt solving RC and DI tests everyday.

wat do u think?

-------Howard:--)) we r free 2 go where we wish and 2 b wat we wish!!!!!!!!!

hey howard_roark,
Your nick reminds me of some charachter in a novel who is an architect.
you dont seem to be one unless you are software architect of course .

[Govi]

Hey I will be joining today "hopefully" I mean even i have the same problem - have control over when to reach the company but not when to leave as of now i have opted for the evening timings if it seems unmanageable even i might shift over to the morning batch...

Will write about the staff there later........

I agree with u that initial interactions in groups helps a lot Exchanging ideas helps to fine tune ur strat...... Hope to see the group getting bigger

Cheers
