Avi Shrivastava is your typical GEM of a candidate who scores over 99%ile, and yet doesn’t make it to the IIMs of his choice. Avi Shrivastava is also your atypical persevering kind who doesn’t give up after a few setbacks. He had to give thrice to make it to IIM Bangalore, but it was worth it. Let’s hear it from him. Avi Shrivastava graduated from BITS Pilani, Goa Campus and worked with Turing and Searce while he was preparing for CAT. Despite minimal preparation he was able to secure an enviable 99.59%ile and yet he didn’t receive the calls he wanted. So, he gave another attempt with a similarly enviable percentile of 99.54, and again the story continued. It was his third attempt in CAT 2022 that got him the coveted 99.91%ile and a Bangalore convert. Avi shares his CAT strategies and insights that are sure to benefit all aspirants preparing for CAT. Don’t miss out on the crucial ABC formula that he applied to score a 99.91%ile. We hope Avi’s experience helps you in motivating yourself for your MBA prep journey.
