🐈 CAT Exam 2020-21 Preparation, Exam Dates, Results & Discussion – PaGaLGuY (Part 1)

The wait was long. My hands are still shivering and I couldn't control them.

 IIM Calcutta it is!

Need some insights, since i'm going for cat21

I have 8/8/6 acads, GEM(mechanical), fresher till now but dont know if i'll be able to find a decent job in these situations

what would be the target in cat/xat to have a safe opportunity to secure a convert at the top 10 b schools of the country (since i'm giving cat 2nd time fms and xlri are the main targets considering my profile, but it's too far fetched right now)


Marking the end of this CAT journey..... IIMC it is!

Converted C. Elated. Blessed. "Why waste time say lot word when few word do trick" A special thanks to the PG community for always keeping me humble and motivated. I had a rant in mind for AIWTSAC, gotta change it.

Which one to choose?

  • IIM Ranchi HR
  • DoMS IIT Madras

Raipur waitlist - 365 Ranchi waitlist - 1046 after 1st list ( now maybe) 146 Udaipur - (934-391) = 543 Trichy = don't know Kashipur = 1171 By which waitlist should I hope to convert Raipur / Ranchi / Udaipur?

The kind of insane movement that has happened today with IIM C and Ranchi, can we expect other colleges' waitlists to follow suit?

  • Nope, 120 people just got lucky
  • Of course

Could anyone share any link/resource which ranks new/baby IIMs? With proper facts and research. One of my friends has a few converts among these, and she's unable to decide.

Another season beckons. CAT'21 here we come. The eventual destination is unknown but it'll be a journey of a lifetime I'm sure. A few lines from a poem that always keeps my spirits invigorated, hope it does the same for you - Keep Ithaka always in your mind. Arriving there is what you’re destined for. But don’t hurry the journey at all. Better if it lasts for years, so you’re old by the time you reach the island, wealthy with all you’ve gained on the way, not expecting Ithaka to make you rich.

Asking in a neutral group.

For finance, which should I choose? Please help me out I’m in a real dilemma

  • MDI PGDM-IB
  • IIM Raipur
  • IIM Ranchi

How good/bad is IIM Rohtak? Yes, I've heard it has a super bad administeration, rigid stupid policies but it's still ranked ONLY a little below Raipur/ Udaipur?

Is the college just bad mouthed in the name of student perception?

Or does the administeration really affect the students to that great an extent..

Yes, It really does use an unfair admission process, not being inclusive of acads, workex, high diversity preference..and people make fun of them owing to that



BUT IS IT REALLY BAD OR JUST STUDENT PERCEPTION AND RUMOURS?

Is there anyone else who converted one of the top 5-10 colleges but is still uncertain to join because of online classes (for one semester at least as of now) and absence of campus life and learnings? 

Please dont poll for the sake of it or to increase your chances of a waitlist movement. :)

Hey Everyone. With multiple colleges releasing their waitlist movements, you can check the same on my blog. Just search for the college name (IIM Ranchi and IIM Shillong did not provide data) to get the previous year stats to just roughly understand your chances.

Also, for people who had multiple calls and converts this year its a sincere request to fill in this form. I am trying to create an aggregated set of interviews on my blog in a chain link format based on colleges for the upcoming batches. Thanks !!!

Dear mover of planets and stars, it's just a damned waitlist!

Please advise, what should be chosen between IIM Amritsar, IIM Udaipur, XIMB BM, IIT Roorkee MBA. Also, it would be really helpful if you could provide with supporting reasons and facts. Thank you!
