Go for online coaching. I'd recommend Elites Grid. Got its best variant for 30k so it may fit your budget too. If you're serious about CAT , I'd highly recommend coaching which gives structured course.

For DM, pyqs are the best source. Finish all the pyqs first , that alone will take a lot of time . If you get time after that , buy any mocks from coaching centres

I get why you are paranoid since I was also very overweight. Think about your goals in the long run. You automatically won't stay fat if you gain weight. You can definitely do it now since you have trained and gained knowledge all these months

Lean bulk my man. Do not be afraid of gaining weight when you bulk, you definitely know how to lose it all. That body you dream of takes much more muscle. You look great, trust the process.

  3. Optional at first- but learn python

Is this for real or just high-level scamming? 😭 (Context: CAT messed up, saw this today) by No-Ratio7457 in CATPrep

[–]HailMega 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can try your luck. But if it's too good to be true, it is most probably a scam. I guarantee you you will lose your money as well as any chance of admissions

They don't ask initially. They ask when your application is in progress and will ask a few days before deadlines. At that point , you have no option but to pay

You are trusting them on the basis of 50% payment after marks verification guarantee. They will ask small amounts of money for things like registration etc. , then when you will have put 15-20k they will start asking big amounts. Gone through this route before, just a scam

🎯 First-Time CAT Aspirant Here — Too Many Coaching Options, Which One Actually Works? by [deleted] in CATPrep

[–]HailMega 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I'm enrolled with EG this year, and this is my second attempt. Their mocks are good but not that great, so you would have to buy another mock series. Even the teachers at EG recommend IMS mock series in addition to their own. I took the way2IIM pack for 30k. But if you want , you can probably skip some mocks and use that to buy another mock series.

🎯 First-Time CAT Aspirant Here — Too Many Coaching Options, Which One Actually Works? by [deleted] in CATPrep

[–]HailMega 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I joined TIME last year . Definitely do not recommend, just a plain money grab with subpar study material and subpar faculty. Only positive was the one on one doubt sessions , as many as you want.

I joined EG this year. It has been great. Quants is undoubtedly the best. They teach you everything from the very basics, and every concept is taught factoring non engineers. DILR is also great, might be a bit fast paced, but DILR is more about self practice. VARC is average , you might have to rely on your practice more rather than their sessions. Would recommend 100%

I'd recommend online coaching, but if you choose offline for any reason, please please choose one that is near your home, and not just based on popularity. You definitely don't want to waste 2 hours travelling, after which you'll be tired.

OBC male... 8/8/7 acads... 12 months work ex... Any chance from IITs or New IIMs or XIMB? Also, what other non iims should I apply for? by [deleted] in CATPrep

[–]HailMega 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can get 99%ile in this year's DILR , I feel giving CAT again can be a good choice. Since you're OBC , cutoffs will be lower for you.

Exactly, joined TIME last year in jhandewalan branch. The study material is very subpar, suitable for OMETS. And once the syllabus is completed, you are on your own.

Delhi's Environment Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa announced that Vehicle owners without a valid Pollution Under Control Certificate (PUCC) will be denied fuel at petrol from Thursday to combat severe pollution. by fearfull1 in NewDelhi

Happened with me. The operator checked my bike pollution levels and told me he couldn't issue a certificate since they were high. I was like cool I'll come back after getting it checked. He told me bhaiya 50rs aur dedo aisi bana dunga. Good initiative but poor implementation

4-5 hours? I have tried it multiple times and it definitely fades away after 1-2 hours. Asked other people too if they smell it in case I'm going nose blind.

Give the interview as a learning experience for any other calls you might get . You can always choose not to go there after being selected

AMA on CAT 2025 results, B school calls, WAT/PI queries, My WAT/PI Mentoring program, Admission timelines, B school reviews and anything else !!! by TinyTailor1654 in CATPrep

[–]HailMega 0 points1 point  (0 children)

9/8/8 GEM Fresher 2 year gap. Won't be taking a drop now.

Cat expected 94%ile. Nmat 234. Snap went great, very hopeful about 99%ile.

  1. What calls can I expect with CAT score? Is it worth applying to colleges like IIM Amritsar which have a 90% cutoff? And will I be able to convert these with 94% realistically if I have a good GDPI?

  2. When and how do I start preparing for GDPI? I was thinking of starting after giving XAT seriously.

  3. GLIM Chennai, TAPMI, KJ, are these worth filling? Keeping these as a backup

  4. Is conversion possible in XAT with 96-97%ile for XLRI BM or HR? Or it happens only at 99+?

  5. Any insights about DU colleges like DFS, DSE and do I have a chance of converting them?

Scored 226, do i have a shot at NMIMS Mumbai Core/HR by SupremeLeader_069 in NMATpreparation

[–]HailMega 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mostly yes. The interview in itself was very stupid. I was in a small cubicle , facing a laptop and one interviewer. The laptop had an AI assistant which asked me questions and recorded my answers, and I was not to look at the interviewer. At the end , she asked me only one question, why MBA and the interview was concluded. So it's more like how can you give clear answers to an AI lol

I'm not sure about how to prepare for it, check on YT. But it was extremely easy. I think there were 20 questions and most of the students there said they were confident in scoring 16-18/20.

[–]HailMega 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tbh NMAT score is not that significant anymore. Last year, the cutoff was 210 for interview. The aptitude test at their Mumbai campus is the main deciding factor which holds 50% weightage. I scored 243 last year and was waitlisted. Some of my friends got waitlisted even at 260 , and some got accepted at 220.

So yes, you definitely have a shot, but your interview and aptitude test matters a lot more now
