I understand your situation, Aishwarya. Preparing for the CAT while balancing your final year of engineering can be challenging, especially without coaching. However, with dedication and the right approach, it's definitely possible to crack the exam.

Here are some tips to help you get started:

1. Assess Your Strengths and Weaknesses:

  • Practice Regularly: Solve as many CAT questions as possible to identify your strengths and weaknesses.
  • Focus on Weak Areas: Devote more time to areas where you struggle, such as VARC.

2. Build a Strong Foundation:

  • Basic Concepts: Ensure you have a solid understanding of basic grammar, vocabulary, and reading comprehension techniques.
  • Practice Reading: Develop a habit of reading newspapers, books, and articles regularly to improve your reading speed and comprehension.

3. Effective VARC Preparation:

  • Practice RCs: Solve a variety of RC passages from different topics to get comfortable with different styles and difficulty levels.
  • Analyze Answers: Understand why the correct answer is correct and why the incorrect options are wrong.
  • Seek Guidance: If you're struggling with VARC, consider joining online forums or communities where you can discuss questions and get help from others.

4. Online Resources:

  • Free Online Courses: Utilize platforms like Coursera, edX, and Khan Academy for free online courses on CAT preparation.
  • Mock Tests: Take as many mock tests as possible to assess your progress and identify areas for improvement.

5. Create a Study Plan:

  • Time Management: Allocate specific time slots for CAT preparation, considering your academic commitments.
  • Consistency: Stick to your study plan and avoid procrastinating.

6. Stay Motivated:

  • Set Goals: Break down your goal of getting into IIMB into smaller, achievable targets.
  • Celebrate Achievements: Reward yourself for your progress to stay motivated.

While coaching can be helpful, it's not essential. With dedication, perseverance, and effective study strategies, you can definitely crack the CAT and achieve your goal of getting into IIMB.

Remember, starting now is a great decision. The earlier you begin, the more time you'll have to improve your skills and build confidence. Good luck!

i belong to RBA catogery and my family income is less than 8 lakhs, can i select the NC- OBC section in CAT registration form?

Hridaya Rao 17th Sep, 2024
Hello there,

No, you cannot select the NC-OBC section in the CAT registration form unless you specifically belong to the Non-Creamy Layer of the OBC category. The RBA (Resident of Backward Area) category is not the same as NC-OBC. For CAT, only candidates belonging to the OBC Non-Creamy Layer as per central government regulations are eligible for that reservation. You should apply under the General or your specific category (RBA) if applicable in the state quota.

Hope it helps. Good luck!

I got 76% in 10th, 63% in 12th and 8.94 CGPA in B.Tech. I am preparing for CAT exam my mock %tile is 97. How much chance to get admission in g best MBA college?

Hridaya Rao 12th Sep, 2024
Hello there,

With a 97 percentile in CAT mocks, you have a strong chance of getting into a top MBA college, especially if you can maintain or improve this percentile in the actual exam. However, admission to top IIMs or other premier institutes (like IIM A, B, C, FMS, etc.) also considers factors like:

1. Academic Profile: Your 10th and 12th marks are somewhat below the typical benchmarks set by the top IIMs, but your B.Tech CGPA is strong.

2. Work Experience (if applicable): Relevant work experience can significantly boost your profile.

3. Diversity Factor: Some colleges give weightage to academic diversity or gender diversity, which could benefit you depending on your profile.


4. Interview and GD/PI Performance: Performing well in the group discussions, written ability test, and personal interviews is critical.

For Tier-1 MBA colleges, if your CAT score remains at or above 97 percentile, you have a fair chance, but your slightly lower 10th and 12th scores may be a minor disadvantage at top IIMs. However, you should still be competitive for other top institutes like MDI, SPJIMR, IITs (for MBA), and others. Keep focusing on your CAT preparation to secure the best percentile possible.

Hope it helps Thankyou!

Describe the administrative set up under iltutmish What were the economic changes introduced by him

Jefferson 10th Sep, 2024

Hey there! Thanks for reaching out to us at Careers360. I'd be happy to help you with your question about Iltutmish.

So, you're looking into the administrative setup and economic changes under Iltutmish, right? That's some pretty interesting historical stuff! Let me break it down for you:

Administrative setup:

Iltutmish, who ruled in the early 13th century, made some significant changes to how things were run. He set up a central government with different departments to handle various aspects of ruling. He had a group of noble advisors called the Turkan-i-Chahalgani or the Forty, who helped him make decisions. He also divided the empire into provinces, each led by a governor to keep things running smoothly.

Economic changes:

On the money front, Iltutmish introduced some cool innovations. He brought in a new silver coin called the tanka, which became the standard currency. This helped standardize trade across his empire. He also encouraged agriculture and trade, which boosted the economy.

I hope this gives you a good starting point! If you need more details or have any other questions, just let me know. We're always happy to help students dig deeper into historical topics like this.

i dont have the nc obc certificate as it take long time to update. instead of that certificate should i submit the cetificate that claims im comes under nc obc [availabe on cat website] for now to fill the form plz answer

monag2673 8th Sep, 2024

If your Non-Creamy Layer (NC-OBC) certificate is delayed, you can still fill out the CAT form using the provisional certificate available on the CAT website, which declares that you fall under the NC-OBC category. This temporary certificate is provided for candidates facing delays in obtaining the updated certificate. However, you will be required to submit the official, updated NC-OBC certificate during the selection process or interviews.


Ensure that the provisional certificate is correctly filled out, and keep track of when your updated certificate will be issued, as failing to present the official document during later stages could impact your category-based claims for admission. Most institutions will accept this provisional certificate for the purpose of application submission, but it is important to meet all final documentation requirements by the time of admission.


Check the CAT guidelines and the institution's specific instructions regarding such documents to avoid any discrepancies .

The National Academy of Legal Study & Research (NALSAR) University of Law in Hyderabad has 147 seats, with 25% of seats reserved for Telangana state candidates. There is no reservation for this category in central list so you can claim only for your state.so whatever serial no.

i uploaded certificate number instead of serial number of category in my cat application. will it affect my admission or exam(nullification of my admit card)??

Hridaya Rao 5th Sep, 2024
Hello Student,
Uploading the certificate number instead of the serial number of your category certificate in the CAT application may not immediately nullify your admit card or affect your admission. However, discrepancies in the application form could cause issues later during the verification process, especially at the time of admission.

To avoid potential problems:
Contact CAT authorities: It's best to reach out to CAT helpdesk or authorities via their official helpline or email. Explain the error and ask for guidance on correcting it.
Check for correction windows : CAT sometimes provides a correction window after the application process closes, allowing applicants to fix errors like these.
Document the issue: Keep records of any communications with the authorities regarding this issue, in case it needs to be referenced later.

By addressing it early, you can reduce the risk of complications during the admission process.
Thankyou.
