I am sure that if i quit I will join other company from Dec. Also convincing them for the break of 2-3 months will be difficult. Also I think with out quiting I can concentrate on CAT. I need to sit dedicatedly for it . And during job its hard to concentrate on studies. I faced the same thing last year and I gave up hope during the end days.

So this time I want to give my best.

Hi friends,

I have decided to quit my job and study for CAT.
1. Basically not much interested in job which i planned to quit next year surely. So though why not now and prepare for CAT and all other EXAMS. Dedicate and put your full effort to it, you can do it.
2. Surely wanted to change my line of work by next year if not an MBA. If you are in a job currently, it is difficult to think otherwise. So took this risk.
3. Taking risk and deciding your career which you would like is to be taken at this point of time only i.e. early 20s. If you further the decisions then its difficult to really take it at a later point of time.
4. Lastly, get prepared to face the question as to why you had a break. Its a sure shot question. May be even the first one!! :-)
