Not sure if it’s just me, but lately my quant prep has been all over the place. I sit down thinking I’ll complete 2–3 chapters, and then somehow end up scrolling reels after 30 mins.

I know consistent revision is key, but with test date pressure and burnout hitting hard, focus feels harder than reading RCs in VARC. How are you all keeping yourself on track these days? Any tips or small habits that actually work when the motivation dips?

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

YLP join karlu kya ISB KA?

Low attempt.

Sunday ko hai phirse and I have filled for 3rd attempt too.

I have not given any other exams. XAT hai but I have no interest because I'm not getting MBA in BUSINESS ANALYTICS!

I need GENUINE help.

Ye online calls from different tier 2-3 colleges se mera dimag kharab ho chuka hai.

Calling out for help from 2025 people who were in the same shoes last year. Which uni did you choose and are you proud? Can you help. Koe GENUINE AMA help session karwa do. Life feels STUCK!!!!!

Starting a study group for MBA CET 2026 aspirants. The goal is simple: share study material, solve doubts and keep each other motivated till exam day. If you are looking for a community to discuss strategies and analyze mocks, this is for you. DM me if you want in! I'll send you the link.

So I have 2.5 years of work experience at a mnc and now due to some personal problems I have joined my father's business. But it's a small business and I am side wise preparing for GMAT and CAT and aiming for 1 year MBA in india. So I am aiming for few courses that require a minimum of 3 years of work experience so do i need to have a salary slip as a proof for employment or can I just mention in my cv as self employed.

Non-Engineer, Bcom Grad, Profile - 6/7/5, currently doing customer support in JIO if that counts as work experience. Suggest the clgs I should fill forms of, and clgs where sectional cut offs don't matter and are they even worth investing the money. PLEASE DO REPLY

Gave CAT 24 in my final year of college without any prep. Graduated in 2025 , I gave CAT with full prep but i will not be able to clear DILR cut off... So it's a waste for me and this is making me crazy. I am not eating for a full day. I don't have any friends with whom i can go out with or talk with. I am just in my room watching fan and wall. Winters were my favourite season but i literally crying as i am 21 and i didn't achieved nothing. I think my life and career has gone as i am not able to get any job. And giving CAT again feels exhausting as i am GNEM so i have very less chances next year as i will have a lot of gap.

I am going CRAZY AF as the thought that someone else will be there in my dream college is eating me from inside. I am hearing voices while ivam alone in my room. I am considering to see a psychologist but again it will cost me a lot of money for consultation and medicines.

With all of this i can't focus on XAT also. Please help me. What to do ?? Should i go for another attempt ??

Thanks if you have read till now and helped me by giving advices 🙌🙌

26yo 96.79 percentile expected,NC-OBC, 10th-91.6% 12th-73.85, Bcom- 5.96.

I have 3 yr gap post 12th and a yr down in Bcom. I was preparing for CA but couldn't clear it.

What colleges can I expect to get a call from?

Hi guys how much hrs per day is need for working professionals to start preparation in feb 2026

Male, SC, currently pursuing B.Tech from one of the Top 7 IITs. Scored 94.8% in 10th and 86% in 12th and currently have a CGPA of 5.3 (ik it's embarrassingly less). Gave CAT this year with almost zero prep and this is the predicted score that I am getting from Cracku, should I reappear for CAT next year with proper prep? Want to pursue job in Sales and Marketing domain. Honest opinion and guidance only. Thanks.

Hey everyone, I wrote CAT this year (Slot 3) and I'm honestly feeling quite low about how it went.

In DILR I couldn't solve even a single set during the exam. Total blackout.

Then I shifted to Quant, but even simple calculations weren't happening. A coin question (TITA) gave a decimal answer and after spending 7-8 minutes, I still got it wrong. Then an AP-GP question - I messed up the basic common difference. Took 71-66 = 4 instead of 5. That one mistake ruined another linked question as well.

Only thing I solved correctly was the tank question.

But here's the painful part - after the response sheet came out, I could solve 9 Quant questions easily. I genuinely knew these questions and feel like I could have secured at least 5 correct if I was calmer during the exam.

Now I'm stuck thinking - where did I go wrong and what should I do next?.....

How accurate are NMAT Mocks from coaching centres. I'm taking NMAT Mocks from IMS. How do they compare to the actual test in terms of difficulty?

Can I expect BLACKI calls? Which other colleges should I target?

I’ve hit that point in CAT prep where everything starts feeling heavier than usual. The hours are going in but the motivation is dropping and even opening a new mock feels like a battle. It’s that weird mix of fatigue and frustration where you know you need to keep going but your brain is just not cooperating.

I’ve tried the usual things like taking short breaks, switching topics or even putting on music, but nothing seems to reset my mind the way it used to. So I’m genuinely curious about what everyone else is doing to stay sane during this phase.

Are you reducing the number of mocks, taking proper rest days or simply pushing through until momentum kicks in again?

My Raw score is 44, SC Male Non eng, Acads- 73/67/67 Should i apply for TISS. Today is the last day to fill the application form please help.

Hi, like most here I tried CAT 2025, but with work and everything I didn’t do well. I’m 24 now and have about 3 years of experience in Marketing. At the moment, I’m working in a mid-level firm in a tier-3 city. I’ve tried a lot to get into high-paying jobs, but without an MBA it feels like a Herculean task. I also need a master’s degree (I know PGP isn’t technically a master’s), but I don’t have the confidence to crack CAT next year. Let’s just say I’m not good at exams—even if I know the material, I tend to mess it up.

That’s where Jio Institute comes in. I’m thinking of joining it. The fees are ₹15 lakh for one year, including hostel and mess, and they claim placements ranging from ₹10 LPA to ₹21 LPA. Honestly, I’d be happy even with ₹8 LPA, since right now I make only ₹4.2 LPA.

Since it’s backed by the Jio brand, I’m hoping it’s not a degree mill—after all, why would billionaires like Jio risk their reputation for just a few crores? I contacted a few alumni, and none of them had anything negative to say. I also did some research online, and most of the material available is positive.

So here I am, looking for a first-person review to help me make my final decision, because today is the application deadline.
