I’m thinking about completely focusing on Quant and VARC. I started my preparation quite late, and since I’m also working in IT, it’s difficult to cover everything. I’m not able to give enough time to my preparation either.
Is it practical for me to focus on these two sections this attempt and give them my best, or should I prioritize overall coverage instead?
I'm really lacking a solid practice source for Quant right now. Can anyone suggest something good for daily practice, ideally basics all the way to advanced? Looking for somewhere I can knock out 10-20 questions a day and actually build a routine.
Was thinking of picking up Arun Sharma but honestly it feels a bit too late to start with that now. Open to books, apps, websites, anything that's worked for you.
Ig then any good college isn't possible for me right
Im clueless with regards to how much chance I stand for getting a good college
Hi ,I started prep this month from basics
I know it's too long my message but any advice or tips is appreciated
Can u also me assess my profile and say whether realistically do I stand a chance at any tier 1 college and best shots and prep strategy
? Anything would be helpful even prep mba and post mba profile building as ik feeling scared whether I can even get a good college as I'm very weak in all 3 and isn't consistent or able to study much with my job

Selling my Rodha CAT 2026 complete course as my plans have changed due to personal commitments.
A little background: I enrolled in Rodha last year and scored 99+ percentile in CAT, so I can personally vouch for the quality of the course. I was aiming for 99.8+ this year, which is why I enrolled in Rodha again for the extra edge.
If you're preparing for CAT 2026 and want access to Rodha at a significantly lower price, DM me for details/price.
The weightage of 10th and 12th marks like they literally predetermined the candidate that if your 10th and 12th marks are not good you can't be a good manager like wtf? How can you judge someone on the basis of their 10th and 12th percentage?
Hello, I have started my preparation from yesterday. I am doing self study and made a excel planner for every day.
To cover my concepts, I am referring to these playlists.
For Qa - rodha
For varc - gejo playlist
For dilr - rodha/elites grid
For daily targets - I thought of covering 10-20 questions Qa of whatever topic i cover, and 2-3 DILR sets and 2 RCS and 4-5 verbal abilitiy questions. Considering only 100 days are left, what more tips can you guyz give me ?
For reading - I refer to cracku's daily reading articles. 20-30 minutes reading. Someone told me you need to analyse what you read too.
For mocks - I have Career launcher test series.
Questions I have - when doing daily questions should I be focusing on PYQS or daily targets from any free source doing random questions.
How can I fast track my progress ?
Hey everyone!
I’m an FMS Delhi graduate currently working as a Consultant.
A few years ago, I was in the same place as many of you where I was figuring out CAT preparation, mocks, percentiles, college choices, interviews, and wondering what actually matters and what doesn’t.
I didn’t take any coaching, so I’m also happy to share what worked for me while preparing on my own.
If you’re confused about:
- CAT preparation strategy
- How to analyse mocks
- VARC/DILR/QA approach
- Whether coaching is actually necessary
- Percentile vs profile
- B-school selection
- FMS / MBA life
- Resume and profile building
- Consulting and career after MBA
- Interviews / GDPI
- Anything else related to the MBA journey
…feel free to ask in the comments.
And if you’re not comfortable sharing your profile publicly, my DMs are open.
I’ll try my best to help wherever I can. No coaching, no paid sessions, just sharing what I’ve learned along the way and hopefully making the process a little less confusing for someone else.
All the best to everyone preparing for CAT 2026! 🙌
I an new into this and the avg package seems about about the same between iim abc vs Mumbai. I have heard people talking about some “roles” and all. Please anyone explain all the difference and justify the difference in percentile required
I gave CAT 2025 my profile is 9/8/7 (General male non engineer EWS) and I have graduated this year from DU BMS. I scored 88%ile and got a few calls but the only interview I gave was DSE and now I am selected for MBA BA but I am confused whether I should wait and give CAT this year or simply take the offer, everyone around me is telling me to take up the offer but tbh I want to give myself a chance again I don't want to limit myself and regret later that I could have given CAT again and maybe gotten a better B- school but I am also a little scared that what if I don't score good enough to get a better one and maybe end up losing even this opportunity. And if I could get a study partner even that would be cool. If there is a senior pls guide me
I am extremely disappointed and angry with my experience with Elites Grid (EG), and I am writing this so that students think carefully before spending their money on this course.
I bought an EG course for 29000/- and later gave access to a friend who genuinely could not afford the course. Because of this, EG disabled my course access.
I understand that they have a policy against this. My main issue is that this restriction and its consequences were not clearly communicated to me when I purchased the course.
I only came to know about it later through WhatsApp.
If giving access to someone else can result in permanent cancellation of a paid course with no possibility of getting the access back, shouldn't this be clearly and prominently communicated BEFORE someone pays for the course?
Imagine buying a Netflix subscription and only after paying being told, “If someone else uses your account, we'll permanently cancel your subscription.” Wouldn't you expect to know that before paying?
This is not a small condition. It directly affects the money a student is paying.
I called them and messaged them to explain my situation, but they simply said:
“You shared it, we can't do anything.”
There was no proper discussion, no reasonable solution and no consideration of the situation.
Now I genuinely don't know what to do. I have already spent so much money on this course, I don't have the funds to buy another course from somewhere else, and because of this situation, my entire preparation has been disrupted.
This is another major problem I have with EG.
If you are a working professional preparing alongside your job, I would seriously think twice before buying this course.
The problem is that mocks, sectionals and tests are added according to EG's schedule, not according to the student's preparation level.
Suppose someone has already been preparing for a year and is ready to start giving mocks and sectionals. Why should that student have to wait until EG decides to add them?
This is exactly what I am facing.
Till now, the mocks and sectionals I need have not been added according to my preparation stage. I repeat till 8th August not a single mock was added.
Students don't all start preparing at the same time. Everyone has a different timeline, especially working professionals.
The course should give students enough flexibility to prepare according to their own pace, rather than forcing everyone to follow the same timeline.
I'll be honest here — Gaurav Sir is good, and I have no problem giving credit where it is due. But VARC is pathetic while buying the course I thought I will manage but it was pathetic.
But one good teacher does not automatically make the entire course worth the money.
Earlier I genuinely wondered:
“Why is everyone selling their Elites Grid course?”
After my experience, I can understand why students may become frustrated with the course.
I'm sharing my experience so that anyone thinking about buying EG can make an informed decision.
For me, this experience has been extremely disappointing.
I would personally NOT recommend buying Elites Grid without thoroughly checking.
Don't just buy because of the hype or because everyone recommends it. Understand exactly what you're paying for before you pay.
Thanks

Must able to solve by shortcut most of questions ( for quants)
They have support of Admin, they illegally falsify anti ragging reports. And scapegoat whistleblowers
I just wanted to know opinion of you guys on the difficulty level of aimcat, is it easier than cat or at par with it, just wanted to know coz I want to analyse my current standing on the basis of score I am getting in aimcat
Aditi Agr. From mba first year !!m j) At first, I thought she was a good person, but now I know her real side. She acts nice and innocent with everyone, but she seems to be into friends-with-benefits relationships and helps people when there’s something involved. She’s quite intelligent, and I know her body count is 3+, which makes me question her whole “sweet” image. I don’t even know how many guys she’s involved with right now or who is actually her boyfriend—Pravar or Sahil. I even wonder if she got selection in committee because of her FWB connections. At one point, I wondered whether she was here to study or just to increase her “score.”
