Hey this is for the freshers.
I would advise that please look for a job as soon as you guys pass out from college and prepare for CAT simlutaneously.
Even if you dedicateldtly prepare only for cat it is not a sure shot guarantee that you would be through...( to be frank).. Also the CAT is just the first stage. even if you manage to clear the written, its for sure they would ask you what did you do for the time between your graduation and the CAT interviews which woud be in feb... and if one says that i prepared for CAT then your chances of converting the call are slim as it doesnt impress the panel..

Also if one looks for a job after the CAT.. the interviews there would prop up the same questions... and if there you answer that i prepared for CAT then the panel would think that you are looking for some stop gap job and they wuldnt select you..

I have tried out the strategy and it is a no win situation.

Adios.

Hey...Stay or Leave.. no need of a poll for that...i would back the mods any day...

I had take the test a few months back..then i had got a 38....this time i got a 41...though i think i managed all the answers pretty honestly....personality shift eh?...
anyways..i havent seen marks to simcats being posted so fast as these scores...but generally everyone seems to be in that middle range of 38 to 47...

Adios.

Hey people..
Well I am on this forum after a Long Long............time.....last year when i took the CAT last year... i used to be here every 4-5 hours..turns out that i am here back after 4-5 months....
neways the site is changed...its completely differs from what i was used to...PG the site is too clustered...(jus an opinion)...it simply isnt simple to simply access for a few topics...

Well I am stuck with this tricky decision to make..
Do i give the CAT again... or since i am working currently continue with work cos i hardly have around 6 months of exp. ..and also i would always be interested in doing something in operations which is a course that asks a lotof exp....(looks like i am back at asking doubts)...

Adios

hey buddy..
agreed about ur statement that there are chances that users would miss out on cetain info... but my suggestion was based on the fact that at times i really needed info fast.... like say info bout filling forms and all when say a similar topic hasnt been posted... n also a one to one experience is also neeeded at times to know ppl better..

also dun include things like music and sports.. n all that aint sucha good idea on this forum.. better off in the lounge... and the tagging idea is really kewl...

anyways must compliment you for the way the forum has been designed.. and the initiaitves u have taken...
Keep up the good work....

hey buddy..
not much of a software guy..
but is it possible to have a chat section or probably messenger kinda thing.. where if you find users online then u can directly talk to them.. sort of an instant communication.. or we can have a link to some chat room?
just a suggestion..
jignesh.

guys..
any info about the institutes and the number of calls each gives would be really helpful..
how good is IIT Kharagpur in comparison with normal b-schools n not just the IITS

i dunno about the cutoffs though i would like to that what institutes take what ranks for giving calls. does someone know what institute to apply at 1638?
::

i checked the results..n i got a horrible rank of 1638...can others please tell me their ranks.?..i am not too optimistic about applying anyplace now...:(
