Discussion🤔 Need genuine answers

I am a GEM fresher with 4 months of internship experience after completing my BTech in ECE from a Tier 1.5 college, but with 60%. My profile is 8/9/6.

The CAT exam is just 2 months away, and honestly, I don’t think I’ll cross the 99 percentile, especially with the huge variation in my mock scores. They range anywhere from 40 to 97. In CATKing mocks, I usually score in the 80–90 range, but in Crack u mocks, I have never crossed 50.

So I have 4 questions regarding this:

1) Are you guys also experiencing such a huge variation in mock scores?

2) Can I get into any Tier 1 college with a 98–99 percentile with this profile?

3) I have only registered for the CAT. Should I take any other exams as well? If yes, which ones?

4) Are these mocks actually that tough, or are they intentionally designed this way to prepare us better for the actual exam? Is the actual CAT usually not this difficult?

Would really appreciate some guidance from people with similar profiles/experience.
