How do CAT 99%ilers study? What is the strategy that they employ to crack a tough entrance test like CAT? How do they keep themselves motivated throughout their preparation journey, and how do they turn their weaknesses into strengths? To answer these key questions, we spoke with Swayam Tibrewal, a CAT 99.12 percentiler and a part of IIM Bangalore's PGP Class of 2021. Swayam took CAT not once, not twice, but four times, achieving his dream score in the final CAT attempt in 2018 that opened the gates to IIM Bangalore for him. Swayam has had a tempestuous CAT journey filled with many ups and downs - in his penultimate CAT attempt, his computer shut-down for 15 minutes that reduced his overall percentile. To add to his troubles, a few days prior to his CAT 2018 attempt, Swayam lost his grandmother - an incident that left him bereft. Added to that was the immense pressure of re-taking CAT a fourth time. However, not only did Swayam not give up, he worked hard to overcome all odds that came his way and belled the CAT! In this video, Swayam talks about how he cracked CAT, how his brother (also a CAT 99+%iler and an IIM Ahmedabad student) complemented his preparation, how he strengthened his weak areas, and how he prepared for one of India's toughest entrance tests as a working professional. He also shares three key strategies that can aid CAT 2019 aspirants in achieving that elusive 99%ile score and enter the B-school of their dreams! If you're looking to score 99%ile in CAT 2019, this video is a must-watch for you!
  Here is how Chirag Tibrewal, Swayam's brother, prepared for CAT 2018 against all odds! Preparing for CAT 2019?
