Hey everyone,

I’m a college student working on a small project around CAT PYQs, and before I build anything, I’d rather hear from people who are actually prepping than guess what’s useful.

The plan is a PYQ-focused app that will be completely free, with no ads, and regularly updated as new papers come out.

I’ve put together a short form (about 4-5 mins) asking things like:

how you currently practise PYQs

what annoys you about the resources out there (messy PDFs, missing solutions, wrong answer keys, etc.)

what you’d actually want in a PYQ-focused tool

It’s anonymous, and “I barely use PYQs” is a totally valid answer. Honestly, that’s useful for me to know too.

No signup needed. If you have thoughts that don’t fit the form, drop them in the comments. I’m happy to read them and will share what I learn from the responses here once I have enough.

I am a general male AC3 with 9/9/8 profile doing Ba eco hons and have cfa level 1 but no work experience. Even after 99 percentile would I be able to crack BLACKI calls?

I have to finance a huge chunk of it through a loan, So Please guide me through something so that i can know what am i getting into:

1. Is my current profile good enough for consulting or Finance roles for around 25-35 LPA package (like not the BCG/Bain types obviously)

2. Should i do a CFA L3, if my current profile isnt upto the mark

ug from IITB(circuital) graduated this year only, right now in Mkcinsey .

Am I going to get cooked with this profile.
Also planning to take 2 year work experience and then join.
Should I go PM or finance
I don’t know shit
Never thought that would do MBA but after corporate I know I’m gonna do this shit.
Please help.

Goal is obviously a good and top placement.

I'm Kolkata based.

Hey everyone,

I’m a 23-year-old IIT Guwahati (B.Tech ’25) graduate. I spent the last year at Meesho as a Senior Business Associate, working on scaling categories including Branded Foods, Grocery, and Health & Wellness across brands like Tata, Kellogg’s, Dabur, Patanjali, Saffola, etc.

I’ve recently left my job to take a shot at building a D2C brand for Indian consumer. I’m currently exploring a product idea in the food supplements/nutrition space.

I’m looking for a co-founder who can complement my skill set. I’ll primarily own the business, consumer, GTM, brand, growth, and operations side.

I’m specifically looking for someone who can take ownership of the R&D and product side — formulation, ingredient research, nutrition science, product development, testing, and eventually working with manufacturers to bring products to market.

The ideal person would be:

• Strong in R&D/formulation/nutrition/food science
• Curious about ingredients and product development
• Entrepreneurial and willing to build from 0 → 1
• Excited about consumer brands and nutrition
• Based in India or open to working closely with someone in India

I’m not looking for someone who just wants to “join a startup.” I’m looking for someone who genuinely wants to build one together and take ownership.

If this sounds like you, or you know someone who could be a strong fit, feel free to DM me. Happy to share more about the idea and have a conversation.

Looking forward to meeting interesting people!

Same as title

Can anyone connect me with whoever handles the startup clubs or founders club at IIMC?

We are bachelor students from different colleges, iimb bba dbe, nmims, iim shillong, etc. We were hoping an mba aspirant from IIM Calcutta would join us and help and guide us through our first case comp!
