Tips For Logical Reasoning - CAT 2016

Tips For Logical Reasoning - CAT 2016

Since one section is devoted to both logical reasoning and data interpretation, those of you who are weak at data interpretation, have to rely highly on your logical reasoning skills. But it can be a hit and miss situation for most people and it is considered as the toughest part for many of the CAT aspirants. The best thing about Logical Reasoning Questions is that at times they come in groups or clusters, that is, information would be provided in a paragraph form followed by 3-4 questions pertaining to it. This is the best part as if you follow through with the information, all 3-4 answers are in your pocket. Topics covered under logical reasoning include, family tree, coding, arrangement, conditional 'if and then' statements, etc.

Effective Ways To Improve Your Vocabulary

Effective Ways To Improve Your Vocabulary

Vocabulary is the building block of any language and it is an integral part of all the entrance exams and is often neglected because of low return on investment with regards to time. Also, there is a lack of certainty when it comes to learning vocabulary. That is, what’s the assurance that the words you learn are the words that would appear in the test. Obviously, no one can guarantee that. So what can you do? Leave the vocabulary questions to fate or to yet another game of ‘Inky Pinky Ponkey’?

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.

Why I Chose IIM Sirmaur By Amit Aggarwal

Why I Chose IIM Sirmaur By Amit Aggarwal

'Damn it', I swore loudly as I woke up in the middle of the night to pull my comforter over me but could not sleep. I sat up confused and let my mind drift back from the dreamy imagery to the reality of my dark room. It was raining again. Again!? I got up and went out to the balcony, stood at a corner of it, mere inches away from the loud rains, extended my hand to touch the falling raindrops, saw the rains falling at a distance on the greens of trees and mountains and was taken back into the land of surreal imagery with my eyes wide open.

Walking The Tightrope - Balancing Act Of A Studying Mother

Walking The Tightrope - Balancing Act Of A Studying Mother

Talk about women empowerment. The time is now! A few days back, I read an article in the newspaper on companies increasingly institutionalizing initiatives to retain women who take a break in their mid-30s. In India, at least 4 out of 10 women give up their careers by the age of 30, largely due to familial reasons including maternity leave. To control attrition at this level, companies such as Infosys and SAP Labs have come up with apps to engage with women during their maternity leave. Apart from these, there are several start-ups such as Sheroes that are offering part-time, flexible job opportunities for women who want to return to the workforce. While I was exploring all such alternatives, somewhere deep within me was this desire to pursue an MBA. It gives me immense pleasure and pride to say that IIM Calcutta, too stands in this league of institutions who has given me this wonderful opportunity to fulfill my dream.
