CAT 2012 Kerala study group

@Kevin88 The Script- Six degrees of Seperation#just awesome
@pakki007 Aliya !! A kindred soul That's one song I keep singing..hmm humming !! Officially on my when-I-am-feeling-down playlist !!

This is one band that has captivated me from the day they released their first music video - The Man who can't be moved !!



P.S : Apologize for spamming.. What ever happened to everyone !! No status updates from many ???
@Kevin88 I am always here. Quit my job and sitting at home.

@pradyothcjohn Dude, saw you giving advises on the IIM I thread. Hows life ? Give us tips on GDPI.
@seetharam7
Rephrase your earlier post to ''I'm working my ass off to get into WIMWI".. Each hr. every day

@pradyothcjohn U too have pulled a disappearing act !! .. 4 get @seetharam7 Any advice for mortals like me !!
@Kevin88 edei edei over akkaathe πŸ˜› 😁 hope the XLRI revised results will bring good news :)

@seetharam7 all i can say is, think for a couple of seconds before you answer(in PI). Otherwise you might hear very strange things coming out of your own mouth 😁 It's very likely that they'll start of with an 'about yourself' question, and they might ask you to justify your SOP..so be prepared. Also, during the interview, don't lose heart if a couple of questions go badly, you can always make up. I'm not really the person you want to ask for GDPI tips, i've attended only one b-school interview in my life..and i hadn't really prepared for it, i just got lucky :D

End term exam are going on now, i have an exam in 2 hours..and a 4 hour Marketing exam after that :D

Congrats to all the people who've got calls, hope to see all of you in awesome b-schools.. and for others, "next year is our year" 😁 (sort of my motto,being a Liverpool fan)

My XAT %tile has increased from 87.73 to 90.25 It may not be much but still happy to score 90+%tile in CAT, XAT, SNAP and NMAT in my first season :)


Guys, how are your new XAT scores?
@pakki007 Increased to 97.63. Still have the BM call.

Strange thing is I thought I hadn't applied for HRM. Just checked the shortlist, I have the call.

Good going bro ...ATB for both interviews

my cat percentile decreased by .25 percentile..eventhough my scre incresed by 1.3%

new overall 91.25
new xlri oa cutoff 91.25
my DM-75.26 xlri-80
angane xlri thechuuuuuuuuu.....2000 odd guys shortlistd for 120 seats - XL BM

My QA decreased by 0.03 to 99.91..Overall decreased by 0.06 to 99.50..still no call due to an awesome 59.65 in VA 😁

Respect to the whole adcom team for the "XL"ent job!
Very rarely we see B Schools revising their scorecards once published.
On one side XLRI is showing the ethical part of business where on the other NMIMS is concentrating on money laundering techniques by asking candidates to pay even to attend thier GDPI procedures.
My OA changed from 98.97 to 99.51.


@Kevin88 Hope you made into the BM shortlists! Waiting to hear from you

Anyone else got into the shortlist coz of this revision.? Good thing they have done by bringing down the QA cutoff and keeping the guys who already got the calls rather than kicking them out!

I got both the calls. But, seems like the competition reached a whole new level. The ratio of seats to call getters would be around 1:30 now. On another note, I got a GK score of 3.67 .

@joethaliath @Kevin88 Check your scores people !!! QA cut off is 76

Dude, You are on a roll this year!
The list is still half way done. Lot more to add up on that. So better you put your rejects next time instead of writing the whole list

Hope I convert especially since I am unemployed now.

By the way, I still haven't done the IIM L stuff. Applied for IITD and IITB. Have some stuff to fill for SIBM P and then for NMIMS. Seems like there is time only for applying.

Overall XAT Percentile increased from 99.90 to 99.92...


4 more re evaluations and I might top XAT πŸ˜‰ :D

GK 3.33 out of 20??? what does that mean??? exam was out of 30 right? N even if i take ratio, am getting only 5 out of 30 but I am getting more...

This season has not been a complete bust Woo Hoo!!!
The door into XLRI -BM jst opened up a bit & 'le me' the ever-enthusiast has somehow sneaked into the inner sanctum without anyone looking !!

Hoping the fathers would look the other way whn I try to scale those interview walls & have pity on my soul !!

Don't know whether i should laugh or cry !! (After seeing the cutoffs !! But will take it anyday over a 'Regret' Angry Mob )
Been literally on a high.. Shock !!
Reached bck home by around 1 in the night after watching Jack Reacher with mes amies Buddies, got lost in the roads of Dubai Sugar High & after finally reaching home , being the nerd I am , logged onto PG & got the shock of the day (As if Jack Reacher wasn't enuf ) & voila !!

My new scores read
QA - 91.61 (Increased from 87.3 )
EL - 94.51
DM - 86.57
OA - 97.06 (Increased from 96.09)

Now, things are really gonna get interesting !!
120 seats & over 1000+ candidates at the very least!!Darth Lightsabers...

@raku1989 @seetharam7 @Vineeth555 @pugna @brandnewrap @pradyothcjohn
You guyz are already miles ahead with prep !! Will need your help if I even hope to stand a chance in converting

Owned

P.S : I am not a complete ******* , atleast one new IIM-Kashipur has decided to throw me a bone too !!
i'm with stupid
So for next season, I atleast have some right (miniscule) to show my face as an ex-Kaptan !!

P.S : Was listening to Hoobastank when I got lost (No wonder) / saw the results / ran through the corridor jumping like a madman !!
I definitely know what I would be listening too before the interview !!

One spam/song from my end !!



Why the heck are my posts always so long ??

Congrats @Kevin88 !!!
