Why spoken English? These days you can speak in any language into a smartphone and it will translate and speak it in any language you want.

As far i know one has to converse in English in the GD PI's.For ex-I will be clubbed with certain number of students and i will be given a topic and then i will have to speak on that topic,i guess speaking in English would be a benefit for me...

LOL nope,i still have a long way to go.I realize that more than 70% of test takers are engineers in CAT,and they have a distinct advantage.But I am satisfied with what i got.In 7 months i really worked hard,my major weakness was maths,i left maths and concentrated on the data interpretation section..I scored 74.49 percentile in the Quant-DI section..

Now i have to prepare for Group discussions,work hard on my spoken English.I need to start reading editorials.


It would be like blowing my own trumpet. But I am feeling very ecstatic and satisfied with my result.
Got 99.2 percentile. :D
QA was my strong part but got 96.14%ile.
While got 99.23 in VA. Completely shocked. :shock:

Nope. Will give CAT once again this year. Most probably, I will get calls from all new IIMs (already got one from Shillong). Even 99.2 percentile is not enough for a call from A, B or C. I could not devote enough time due to placements and was lucky in getting 99.23 in the VA section. As far as QA is concerned, I am an engineer and hence under-performed in comparison to some of my mates in that section.

Will take this result as an inspiration. ;)

Thanks. I hope that you get an excellent B School. Are you planning for GMAT?
My good friend has received a call from IIM kozhikode..He is from SC category..Lucky him!!!!

They have not called for interview yet. It is just a preliminary stage process where they will take the personal info. They have shortlisted all with >90 percentile. But they will get rid of people while calling for interview on 22nd Jan. (this is where I will be rejected as well :().

No,i dont have any plans for GMAT,but i am getting tempted seeing one of my friend preparing for it.It seems if i had started my preparation in 2012,i could have scored 90+.My major problem was always going to be maths section,i tried hard but i guess studying from scratch with barely 6 months for preparation was too less time for me.Anyways,just hope that i do better in XAT..:)

OOok,I realized that Getting a call from IIM A is just soo incredibly tough,they have changed their selection criteria this year with them selecting top 50 students from each stream.It's a shame that talented people like you get rejected and people from OBC,SC and ST get selected.No doubt we are a f***** up country with no hope in sight..:(

Nothing much, just a stomach bug, a back niggle, and a few blisters here and there from touching things.

suresh is about a week away from becoming a bionic poster. He will soon surge ahead of Bud 4.5, but is still about 9k short of BP.

Vamos suresh. Asia rules.

Was IMI Delhi your first preference?

Do they have a hostel in Kolkata?

IMI DELHI would have been my 1st preference..But for that I would have needed 90+ percentile..I only managed 70...i talked to my teacher..he told me IMI has got BRAND value and their faculty is very good....Yes they have a hostel their..I visited kolkata with my dad..My dad was impressed with its infrastructure..But for me placement matters the most!!!

my session will start from 23 rd june in IMI KOLKATA..In the mean time i went to hyderabad to give an interview in hyderabad central university.I am also going to Banglore to give an interview in XIME..

So you will sacrifice 20K rupees you already paid?

It is not much these days though. senti spends more at Narula's for ice cream in one day.

Bengaluru is probably the most dynamic place as far as jobs go when you graduate, so it might be better to land up there right now. From Kolkata, you are going to go to some other place anyways.

Tush, when are you joining IMI Kolkata?

LOL nope.I am giving interviews just to gain experience.My first preferance would have been a college in either Banglore hyderabad pune mumbai or delhi..Consisering my percentile and the feed back that i have received from my teachers..i would prefer Kolkata.Joinees of IMI k has formed a group on whatsapp and we are discussing everything possible on it..I guess kolkata is a metro city and a commercial hub for east India..IMI as you know is owned by RP-SPG group which in it self is capable of absorbing students.Last year intake was only 28 and they all are placed at good companies.This year they will take around 45-50 students.
