A Day In The Life Of An XIMB Student

Holding my coffee mug, sipping my occasional caffeine requirement and comfortably sinking into my bean bag, when I look back at my recently bygone 3 months, it was undoubtedly a hell of a ride! From the lowest of lows to the highest of highs, from those depressing marks to the amusing lively parties, making way through classes and ‘I can’t keep a count’ number of meetings, juggling between the committee works with a special privilege for the Placecom, slipping into the formal shoes, being suit up and attending the mandatory sessions where actually anything and everything becomes mandatory, living through the gossips, soggy mumblings and igniting laughter of your friends over a cup of chai or any preferred drink - I have seen it all.

IIM Udaipur And Purdue University - Where The Magic Happened

The dreams were realised when I entered the IIM Udaipur campus but magic happened when IIM U through its dual degree program made us cross 7 seas to reach The United States Of America. On a fine fall morning when you wake up and realise you were walking along lush green grass with colourful flowers in a brilliant harmony, fresh wind surrounding your thoughts and cultures of 180 countries greeting you, be very sure you are at Purdue University.

Strategies To Ace NMAT

I know a lot of candidates already have butterflies in their stomachs since NMAT, the first MBA exam of this season is kicking off from today. I was also in a similar situation last year. Students who are focused on CAT tend to ignore the non-cat exams like NMAT, SNAP, IIFT. But believe me, these exams are easier to crack if you have the right strategy and moreover 80% of NMAT's syllabus is taken care of if you are preparing for CAT. For the rest 20%, you should give ample number of NMAT mocks to get a hang of the syllabus, analyse those mocks thoroughly and accordingly form your own strategy.

'I Aimed To Solve The 25 Questions Of RC In 45-50 Minutes' - Subhrajyoti Saha, 99.64%iler - CAT 2016 - IIM Shillong

My preparation started from March but I was unable to give much time because of academics and college activities. I was able to focus solely on CAT only from July after the end term examinations of my college. During the period from March to July, I tried to go through all the basics of the three sections. Then after July, I started practising questions and previous year papers along with regular mock tests. Regular practice along with mock tests helped me a lot. One thing to note is that all the mock tests should be analysed so that the shortcomings can be identified and worked upon. I worked on my weak areas a lot to improve them along with sufficient practice for the strong areas. Mock tests are an integral part of preparation as one would not be able to judge their preparation without them. Solving questions under time constraints should be practised regularly. Along with full-length mock tests, I gave chapter wise tests and sectional tests on the areas which I was not comfortable with. I think that mock tests are necessary as they help a lot in preparing for the final exam.
