As much as taking the decision of sitting for an exam like CAT is difficult, preparing for it is even more mentally disturbing. With preparations come mock tests, percentiles and heartbreak even before sitting for the exam. Hence it is very very important to understand what you want to know, how you want to know it and how much you wish to retain. CAT or "Common Aptitude Test" tests your aptitude skills which you already have. So it is particularly important to properly brush up your IQ skills and follow some simple steps to excel in all your management exams.
With admission to one of the top MBA colleges in the country, there are other things which come along with it, in pseudo-hiding. Of course, the look of gleam from your younger cousins, appreciation from other relatives, slight envy from people who never thought you could be good enough and the pride in your parents' eyes, are the ones we all know about.
When it comes to preparation of MBA, it is not only limited to just practising the study material and crack the exam. In fact, one must know what his/her interests are and in what areas he/she want to take their career ahead. Aspirants with no prior work experience also appear for the EXAM and have no clear picture about the domains in MBA. For such aspirants, it becomes necessary to get the understanding of at least 2-3 domains. There are freshers who might have done their graduation Internship in a startup that has different functions like Finance, Marketing, and Operations etc and these people at least have understanding of the different verticals in a MBA journey. But if this is not the case, then it become very difficult to choose specific vertical for your MBA and it would be unwise to choose a random domain.

The pressure boils down to one point when one reaches the final and the decision making round – The Personal Interview Round.
