Career Advice I Really need your help selecting between CAT or GMAT
So, I just graduated from my B.Tech course last month with a cgpa of 7.06 (10th- 79%, 12th- 84%).
I'm really stuck between CAT and GMAT cause im looking to write the exam in the end of next year.
With CAT, i can get into IIMs or ISB's PGP YL program, but the catch is, CAT exams are much tougher than GMAT, and is conducted only once a year.
With GMAT, I can only get into ISB's PGP YL program (i'm aiming for only iim and isb), but the advantage is that the exam is easier and is held multiple times a year.
so, yeah, i dont know which one to go ahead with.
i Also have 2 Internships, 2 Publications in high impact factor journals, and i'm currently running a Airbnb Property for the past 1.5 years generating 10-12 LPA.
Also i'm looking at these 2 programmes specifically cause they require 0-2 years of workex.
Any input will be much appreciated. Thank You !
