Hi People,

this is my profile -
10th - 89.2
12th - 90
Engg ( CSE ) - 8.01/10
Now have been working with Cisco Systems for the last 1 year and 2 months. Is this profile good enough to get into the top B Schools? If not, what are the other schools that i have as options?

Correct me if I am wrong but I believe IMS's SIMCATs are the best for VA-RC prep among the coaching institutes. I would like to know which institute has the best material for Quants & LR-DI?
TIME , CL or IMS ?

does anyone know about T.I.M.E kalu sarai centr ..... how is it?

any idea

Hi guys this is my profile

Class X-87%
Class XII-83.3%
B.tech-(up to fifth sem)-64%
I wanted to secure a seat in any of the IIM's. Please tell me the necessary percentile needed to secure a seat in IIM and also further suggestions if any 😃

Hi,

This is my profile. Class X-89.2, Class XII- 71.2, Grad(B.E. computers) - 70.0. 18 months of work experience. General category. Please tell me which all good colleges should I aim for and if there is any scope for getting calls from old IIMs. Please reply.

Hi Puys,


I have given CAT12 and landed at 95% and was unable to convert some of the good calls i had.

Now I jumped on to Cat 13 with a bit a of disappointment coupled with high determination and joined AIMCat series at Time Hyderabad. I am very weak in VA and planning lot to get rid of the fear that is rooted in my mind on VA section. I got Arun Sharma Book for RC and VA.

Could any one please suggest me whether I need to join any other test series besides AIMCATs in Time.?.??...(CL or IMS)

I am having last year Time Material with me but the problem is I find the problems in the Time material very familiar as I have worked out those last year.So I am planning to buy some books for QA, DI and LR also.

Could any one suggest me some books for better preparation of these sections also?.??..
(I am planning to buy

For advanced – The Pearson Guide To Quantitative Aptitude And Data Interpretation For The CAT by Nishit Sinha)

Please suggest me whether it is a good choice or not.


Also I heard that Arun Sharma For VA and RC is out dated one (For PG posts). If it is true, my 400 rs are wasted p...In that case please suggest me some book for RC and VA even...


Thanks in advance...Please reply to this post and help me in 'CAT'ching mg

I am 2012 passout from an IIT. I have decent acads (Xth - 92%, XIIth - 96.2% and B.tech - 8.2 cgpa). I got 98.56%ile this year in CAT and got calls from IIM-K, IIM-I, new IIMs , SP Jain and MDI. However, could convert only MDI-PGPM. Currently, I am working at ZS Associates (a consulting firm).

Now, I am in a dilemna whether to join MDI or give one more shot at CAT (with all its uncertainty).

Suggestions ??

  • Take one more shot at CAT

Hi guys!

Is more than 3 years of experience a disadvantage For IIMS?

How many Puys wrote AIMCAT - 10 . What gud score in that .. Ny Idea .

I can understand ewr dilemma guys...so jus wanna say something to all the people who are worried about their profile and wanna know their chance to get into IIMs...

** Well if ew have throughout 90%+ ew just dunt need to worry at all...get a high score and then have a decent gdpi..converting will b e cakewalk for ew guys.. 👏
** well above 80% decent chances to get calls from old and new IIMs...need high score...like 99.6+...
** And if ew have fallen in the group of below 80s IIM A,B & S difficult..try to target IIM C and new ones...for IIM C ew need very high score like 99.8+...
