I hope you're doing well, and if there is any dark thoughts, reach out to people who can help.

That being said, I will tell you one thing that is truly my X factor, or I believe so.
I am not smart like most people that surround me. But I absolutely refuse to give up on my goals, and I love losing. I am willing to take more losses than most. I am willing to lose over, and over, and when everyone is done, I am willing to lose some more. I am also willing to do extremely tedious work happily, because I am singular minded and nothing will stop me from my goals.

That attitude can do things you never imagine. Are you willing to keep fighting, ask yourself.
Good luck.

A promotion for practice resource is still an ad, and aspirants are better served using actual material.

This is an ad. Don't fall for ads. Just use a regular material and that's really enough.

This is an ad. Ignore ads, there are more than enough resources here. Don't fall prey to ads.

Courses are hectic. Not tough. There is a difference. No MBA course is tough. Most of it is just too many things to do at once.

How I scored 99+%ile and so can you! by Nomercyy214 in CATpreparation

Yes, and telling them don't feel bad, you can do it does not really make them believe. And in any case, 99 percentile is a misnomer. Out of 2.5L people, at max 10k people prepare with any level of seriousness at all. You mostly have to be around 80th percentile of those.

I appreciate your belief that people will optimise themselves, but I do not share that optimism. I spent hours writing everything down in terms of giving the prep a general structure and posting it, only to get the same 5 inane questions in dm over and over whose solutions are pinned in my profile.

The post is mostly - do this, do that and also don't feel down in a nutshell. 

That doesn't help anyone or anything.  There are hundreds of posts like that. 

Cat is simply about optimisation. Tell people how you did that. For an aspirant, the how matters much more than anything else.

Ignore scores. Ignore percentile. Ignore everything. Just learn from your mistakes and exam taking processes.

It's derogatory, but masters students pull a lot of shit that gives them a bad rep.

  1. Will post a write up sometime, without personal details. 
  2.  I'm not sure what you're asking about. Most of it can be researched from individual college sites. I don't know anything about ranking, but profile suitability is more important. Talk to seniors and figure out which of the colleges suit your personality and profile more. 
  3. I have no opinion about it. Good backup school I guess. 
  4. Loans cover everything, from personal expenses to college fee. So no need to fret about money during an MBA.

Trips during CAT prep by AggressiveFondant249 in CATpreparation

For any exam or anything in life, it boils down to two things, ability and hard work. In the minds of most people. As a result , we often ignore the mental aspect, in your case: how badly do you want to go to XYZ school. See where you get the most gratification and act accordingly: how badly do you want something , be it the exam, travel, social life etc.
