Swarnim Banerjee’s Journey To Vinod Gupta School Of Management, IIT Kharagpur
Every journey and decision once embarked upon or taken should be visualized as a challenge. Mr. Ratan Tata once said that there is no such thing as a perfect choice when it comes to deciding a path to follow, it is what we make of that path that really matters. Things thus eventually and inevitably align and even out in life. As a management aspirant, the process of appearing for the CAT exam, clearing it with a breakthrough percentile and making it through the interview processes of the best schools is not only an intense experience but also an essential test that nurtures the spirit of hard work and competition.

Thoughts in Process, Life at IIM Lucknow - Navya Satyala
Decisions make our lives take many unheralded twists in the future. We make tons of quick decisions unconsciously, others we hem and hover in agony. After eons of work put together, we make the grade but that just marks the beginning of a tumult of getting into a top business school. It is the basic habitude to deal with mental agony before we weigh the probable options of choosing our B-School – for it is as difficult as belling the CAT! But what we must realize is that it is time for us to take a well pondered decision which can steer us towards our destiny. Our lives thus far have been roller coaster rides through highs and lows. Yet, we enter into another Hel(L) of a ride, where we are expected to surpass one hurdle after another, with a diminishing finish line.

'I'm From A City Where 70% Of The People Don't Know The IIMs' - My Journey To IIM Ranchi - Nikhita's Story

My Journey To IIM Rohtak And Expectations From It - Amit Pandey
Growing up in a lower middle class family, I always had a desire, instead of an aim. My desires were influenced by what I saw in the movies and society. I dreamed of being a rich man as shown in those Yashraj movies. Hidden beneath these desires was an innate aspiration to comprehend the workings of real world around me. So, I chose to graduate as an engineer but soon realized that knowing how a BMW worked was not as important as knowing why a BMW was such a prized possession. It seemed only logical to understand the bigger blocks after knowing all about the shapes and sizes of what comprised them. But collecting a gamut of information without an aim that combed through it was like searching for a needle in a haystack and that too with no information about that needle.

My Journey To IIM Ranchi - Mahadeep Ray's Story
After two non-serious attempts, this was my 1st serious attempt. I had the basics in place. So I started practicing the problems directly. I was always fond of Quant but used to struggle with LR/DI. CAT had a change in its structure and now there were 3 sections instead of 2. With the change in structure I had to give more importance to LR/DI as it became a separate section and a minimum of 80 percentile in each section is required for IIM calls.

My Journey To IIM Ranchi - Kshitij Sharma's Story
First things first! Studying in a B-School is rarely a dream that a person nurtures right from his/ her childhood days. Nobody plays core business level games during childhood. The closest to business game a child plays is called “Vyapari”. So a natural question arises, how come every year we see a surge of MBA aspirants who compete against each other like Spartans in a battlefield?
