Expect The Unexpected - What After CAT

Expect The Unexpected - What After CAT

Having done with the CAT exam, it isn’t the time to relax. This is the time to analyse your performance and weigh your chances. Even though all of you are hoping to get into one of the IIMs, it is always better to keep your options open. So after having analysed your performance you are the only one who can decide whether to apply for the other private MBA institutes or wait for an IIM call.

CAT Is Done, Get Ready For XAT - Somil Nain's Journey To XLRI

CAT Is Done, Get Ready For XAT - Somil Nain's Journey To XLRI

I applied for XAT after the debacle in CAT and like always it was last few days left to apply. After sensing the pattern of XAT in 2015 and thereafter my performance I was in no mood to apply for XAT 2016. But since it was my last attempt for MBA, I decided to take a chance and with heavy heart parted with application fees.  Since I had taken 2 weeks off from office before CAT so joining back meant lot of work was waiting for me. I could not spare any time for special preparation of XAT apart from practicing previous year question papers. Although I continued with my habit of reading newspaper in office during breaks. In between, IIFT results were out and seeing my name in interview list was a sigh of relief. So remaining time left before XAT was spent in filling IIFT behavioral questions and office.
