I’m confused whether I should buy Cr*cku Daily Targets or skip it.

Current prep status:

- Already bought Cra**u mocks

- Bought CL mocks + VARC1000

- Recently started attempting Cra*ku daily target questions regularly

since I started late, I haven’t completed the daily targets from around 7 days back.

Also with DILR, if I’m unable to solve a set on my own, even after watching the solution I sometimes still struggle to fully understand the approach as video solution is not available. ₹1499 is not huge, but I don’t want to spend unnecessarily or buy something that won’t help much.

People who have used Cr*cku Daily Targets:

- Did it genuinely help in improving discipline/performance?

Would appreciate honest opinions.

I need practical advice on how to get my life back on track.

Yesterday, I ended a 5-year relationship. It had become extremely toxic and draining. We were complete opposites, and despite trying everything for years, things never really worked. I reached a point where I simply couldn't continue anymore.

The problem is that now I'm completely alone. After being with someone for 5 years, you get used to having that person in your life, even if the relationship isn't healthy. The void is hitting me much harder than I expected.

At the same time, I'm preparing for competitive exams for my master's admission, so I don't have a fixed job or a very structured daily routine. Most of my friends have moved on with their own lives, careers, and relationships.

Recently, after graduating, I started questioning many of my life choices. I feel like I chose the wrong friends, the wrong partner, the wrong career path, and now I don't even have a job. Sometimes I genuinely wonder: what's wrong with me? How can one person make so many bad decisions?

My family environment is also quite toxic, and I don't have anyone I'm truly close to. There's no one I can talk to openly and honestly about what's going on in my head. As a result, I keep getting stuck in the same emotional loop over and over again.

What hurts even more is that people around me see me as a failure. I graduated from a good college, yet I still don't have the career progress that everyone expected from me. That feeling is slowly eating away at my confidence.

The truth is that even though my relationship was unhealthy, he was still the only person I talked to regularly. Now I don't feel like talking to anyone else. Some days I didn't even want to talk to him because he never understood what I was going through. He would often dismiss my feelings and make me feel weak for having them.

I'm not looking for motivational quotes or philosophical advice. I want practical solutions.

If you've been in a similar situation and managed to rebuild your life, what specific steps did you take?

How did you:

- Deal with the loneliness after ending a long-term relationship?

- Stop obsessing over past mistakes and bad decisions?

- Build a routine when life feels directionless?

- Improve your confidence when you feel like a failure?

- Create a support system when you don't really have one?

Right now, I just want to fix at least one aspect of my life and slowly move forward from there.

My profile:

Female, OBC-NCL

8/8/8 academics

B.Tech in Civil Engineering from a decent NIT (2025 passout)

Fresher

Current situation:

Converted MBA at IIT Jodhpur

Converted IIM Jammu, IIM Sirmaur, IIM Amritsar, and IIM Bodh Gaya

Waitlisted at IIT Kharagpur (VGSoM) at 129, so I am assuming there is very little chance of conversion

I did not accept the baby/new IIM offers because their fees are around ₹22–25 lakh. Since I am currently not earning, I did not want to put additional financial pressure on my father. Even if I took an education loan, I know I would personally feel a lot of pressure carrying that debt.

Because of this, IIT Jodhpur started looking attractive to me due to its comparatively better ROI.

However, I am unable to get a clear picture of the college.

Whenever I research IIT Jodhpur MBA, I find very mixed reviews. Some people say it is a good upcoming option, while others are not very positive. I have tried reaching out to seniors and alumni, but I have not received many responses. I also do not see a very active alumni presence online, which makes it difficult to understand the actual situation.

My biggest concern is this:

If I drop this year and prepare again for CAT 2026, I feel I would be sacrificing another full year with no guarantee of a significantly better outcome.

On the other hand, if I join IIT Jodhpur and later realize it was not the right decision, I may regret not trying again.

Another thing I keep thinking about is that skills eventually matter a lot. Sometimes I feel that instead of spending another year preparing, I should start my MBA now and focus on building skills, internships, competitions, networking, and placements.

I will be around 26 by the time I complete my MBA, and I already feel like I am running out of time because I have not earned much independently yet.

For me, the "IIM tag" alone is not a strong reason to spend ₹22–25 lakh. Yet I see many people choosing baby IIMs over institutes like IIT Jodhpur, and I wonder if I am missing something important.

So my questions are:

Is IIT Jodhpur MBA actually a bad choice, or is it simply underrated?

Would you choose IIT Jodhpur over the newer/baby IIMs if ROI was a major factor?

If you were in my position, would you join IIT Jodhpur this year or reappear for CAT 2026?

Am I over-focusing on ROI and ignoring factors that matter more in the long run?

I would genuinely appreciate honest opinions, especially from current students, alumni, recruiters, or people who seriously evaluated these colleges before joining.

Thank you.
