I have already posted something about my IIM GDPI calls...So you must be wondering what am I going to pen down today again !!!! ..Don't worry..Its NOT some boring GDPI prep material...I just want to share my view about the fiasco called CAT...And Its tryst with my life!!!
Have you seen a child who is fed forcefully by his mother ?..Neither is he hungry, nor is he willing to taste the food..Still his mom wants him to eat all that stuff....Pretty bad situation for the poor child...Well my condition is the same...The left part of my soul (Who is inclind towards logical thinking !!) is acting as the mom...While the right part is the child who is fed up of all the post CAT GDPI prep....Left one wants me to have atleast an IIM degree after missing the IIT one...While the right one said who cares !!....You know...Going thru the current affairs.... my engineering subjects...after I left them in peace for 5 years (BTW, Have I touched them before ? be honest !!)....The Maths papers...You know I loved Maths upto 12th Standard..Then in my engineering, I was accoustomed to a new kind of Math..And I hatd that one...
So doing all these stuff, which you don't like is painfull....The only part that I like about GDPI prep is the introspection part...I never did that before...And it is awesome..But then again..there is also hipocracy...I mean I want to stay the way I am..And I don't want to open any new IT co in future...But still, the coaching classes taught me to say so....Can it be called introspection then ?..In true sense ?
There again I am going for GD PI with all these..Please wish me Good Luck !!!

CAT 07 Results and beyond !!! Thank GOD !!!
Guys,
I know you must be thinking what the heck !!!..Why this guy is posting CAT results some 20 days after the CAT result was out !!!! Was he mourning about it all these days....Both YES and NO...Puzzled ??
Here goes my official CAT results for this year(I am a CAT veteran !!!)
VA/RC: 92.84 %ile : 25.00 Marks
DI: 98.75 %ile : 57.xx Marks
QA: 95.6 %ile : 32.00 Marks
Overall: 98.98 %ile
Now, I was expecting my VA/RC score to be between 35 to 45....For IMS and TIME it was 40, For PT it was 45 and for CL it was the lowest, 35....Realistically I believed IMS/TIME answer keys...And thought I would get somewhere about 99.5 %ile...But that was not to be...Bad..Bad..Really bad....
Hey, but that was not all.....Thanks to my Mom n Dad, who pushed me hard to study hard during my childhood days.....So I was supposedly a scholar upto 12th standard...Then came my engineering..And I was my own boss..So you can very well guess about that time....but for my results in Secondary and Higher Secondary exams, some IIMs still thought to have pity on me...And they are IIM Lucknow, Indore and Kozhikode...Well my 5 years of IT work ex also helped a lot..IIM Ahmedabad also gave a call under OBC quota, but I don't bank upon that one...
See, I have seen only one guy to have a score like mine (Below 99 %ile) in PG...And get 3 genuine IIM calls (I don't call the OBC calls as genu...)...Had I got another question wrong in VA/RC...And I would have got no calls !!!....If somehow, my VA/RC %ile were below 92, I would have missed IIMK call...I know one guy in my office who had 98.93 %ile overall, with 91.9 %ile in VA/RC..And no IIM call.....Another girl..With 99.07 %ile with min 93+ %ile in one section, and still received only one call..IIMK
So, I guess I was lucky...Hey GOD ..Thank you very much !!!

CAT 07 Results
Hey CAT aspirant
How you find the time just before the results? I tried everything to shift my focus from this thing…But alas!! It was a failure. I am not able to concentrate on my office works as well. And my PM thinks that I am neglecting my work. That’s true, but I can’t help it.
To top it, IIMB site said earlier that the call list will be out by 2nd Jan. Then came the surprise. They changed the date to 10th of Jan on 2nd Jan itself. What a pity!! I mean, if you can’t do something within a deadline, convey it beforehand, and not on the last day!! That’s what my peers have taught my all 4 years. Now I see IIMB doing that thing.
But I won’t complain. Rather I will wait. XAT is scheduled on 6th Jan. Lets do some justice with that at least!!
