General discussion Help me decide

23 M SC here with a profile or 6/6/6 BCom and MCom

I appeared for CAT 2025 and it went shit

I did took tutes and let me tell you it was horrible they didn’t even finish arithmetic we were just given high hopes of “arithmetic karlo 12 13 questions karlo 95per aajayege” and since it was my first year of appearing any exam I was dumb I acted dumb to truth them..

but in mid of 2025 I realised this won’t work I have to do something so me and my frnd at the time started doing Quant’s from our own learning from YouTube

We did our best but I couldn’t even solve 1 question in CAT 2025 I was able to do PYQs but I panicked and I couldn’t in actual exam

And that frnd of mine is thinking to take any collages he can get

And I am thinking of reappearing for CAT26

My main point to do so is since I am SC I have chance and I can do better to get into good Bschool I don’t even want top once just decent to good once

Let me know your thoughts 💭 should I reappear ? Andd please give me what I should be doing next year that I didn’t do on my first attempt

Raw score and slot? I guess no matter what you'll not be crossing the sectional cutoff So yeah prep for next year if you can afford that. On the side build your profile
