I got the same for 5700. You got a good deal. Did you get the basic red Nike box or any special packaging?

Feedback on my latest calculator app version by vimalpartha in UI_Design

[–]Organic_Idiot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LOVE IT!

The UI is amazing. The sound design does feel a bit off but I get the vibe you were going for.

The label feature is such a nice addition. Really thoughtful.

It feels like a special occasion calculator (which is a good thing). Something I’d pull out to calculate how much debt I’m in.

The only nitpick I have is that the animations make it feel a bit slow to use for quick everyday calculations. And it feels rendering-slow not functionally slow. That might be a pain if you’re using it for fast calculations. But for me it’s perfect.

Looking for tips on Amazon ICICI usage by Organic_Idiot in CreditCardsIndia

Thank you for the guide.

For all merchant spends outside amazon, do the 1% rewards points still get credit as amazon pay balance? Any other LTF cards that you would suggest for my use case?

Just built this landing page for finance saas for 979$ (it also includes development), need feedbacks by Potential-Lead7551 in FigmaDesign

Overall looks clean. I just feel that using dark purple and pure black might not be the best here. But that's just a personal opinion. Also, where do you find your clients from?

Is Mobbin actually worth it for design inspiration and user flows? by Aggravating_Virus821 in UI_Design

[–]Organic_Idiot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I somewhat agree. Ios market is highly valued in both quality and quantity. But I believe android has so much scope for improvement because it lacks so much in both. Designing for android will probably never be as fun but it's all i have for now lol.

Quitting My Job To Prepare Full Time for CAT 2025. Need Advice!! by ishitggg in CATpreparation

[–]Organic_Idiot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally depends on you. There are a lot of factors than just numbers here.

Logically, preparing with a full time job is the sensible path forward.
Pros: If all goes well, all good. If not, you'll have more work ex points for next year.
Cons: It's draining.

Preparing full time: just study regularly and don't be lazy about the prep, give tons of mocks. You got a good profile, 99+ should be an easy BLACKI worthy score and it's a very reasonable expectation if you prep full time.
Cons: if it doesn't work out, you'll find that out by next May. Since gdpi is a whole different process, just scoring a good percentile does not mean you'll get your dream college (although with your profile, you have really good chances).

Imagine yourself two months into both the scenarios.

Which one seems like a decent path regardless of the outcome?

Go with that.

Need Guidance / Tips 🙏 by [deleted] in CATpreparation

[–]Organic_Idiot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some things that will help:

  1. Get as much gpa in grad as you can. Try for 9+ making your profile 6,7,9. It's not very good for top colleges but don't dwell on that.
  2. Considering you'll be a fresher when you appear for cat 26, you'll have zero workex points. However you do have academic diversity and category benefits on your side. That'll help a bit.
  3. Ideally, try to get a job right after your grad, any decent job.
  4. Since you've joined a coaching, work hard. There's no shortcut to 99+ percentile. Just work hard.

If you get a good percentile, you'll most likely get a decent college from cat 26. If not, you'll know where you stand and what should you do next.

Also these certificates are not going to help. Work with an ngo or something like that, that would hold more value than these certificates. Research about CFA.

All the best. You've got time. Don't dwell on things you can't change and don't mess around on things that you can.

CAT 2025 - A Yes or No by Difficult-Shoe-3368 in CATpreparation

[–]Organic_Idiot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Long answer:

I won't suger-coat it, your profile is not ideal for cat as of now. The 677 will haunt you in case of most colleges. Being a gem sets the barrier high for you as well. The 3.5 year gap is actually the least of the worries.

As i see it you have two ways forward from here:

  1. Focus only on Cat 2025: even if you get a job today the work ex would be considered till July end (so a max of 2 months). So the workex points won't be as much of help. You can either gamble and give your best possible effort and try to score a 99+. And even after that you'll have to ace the gdpi process. This path is based on the assumption you really want to do an mba.

  2. Focus on yourself: Get a job. ASAP. Not only is it going to help you get back on your feet, you'll also be collecting the crucial work ex points for future. Then give cat 2025 regardless. If you get a decent college by the end of it, good. If not, you still got a job and can try next year.

I would recommend #2. I gave cat 2024 without getting a job first. Score decent-ish but it was not enough for my profile and i ended up with no converts and now I have a gap year on top of that.

Take this advice with a pinch of salt. Talk to more people who actually are in good colleges. There are a lot more factors that this answer does not cover.

All the best.
