Hardwork never gets unrewarded forever – 760(49/44) , AWA – 6, IR – 3  It all started with CAT !! It all started way back in 2009, when I decided to have MBA degree. In India, CAT is more preferred and I joined the CAT coaching institutes. While studying for CAT, I developed habit of […]

Finally I am making a post on this sacred thread… The thread which is always been source of inspiration for me ever since I came to know about this wonderful world of Pagalguy. Well to be honest I have neither cracked CAT nor got admission into top B-school like IIM A/B/C or XL . After […]
