      Bro, I will try to say things from my perspective and the little which I have seen and noticed.
      What I feel is unless you are like super intelligent person don't put all your eggs in same basket. Give allllll the exams and all slots.
      Give CAT, XAT, NAMT, SNAP (all slots). You just can't depend on CAT alone cause you don't know how it's gonna be like plus some colleges of NCR haven't even given calls at 96 percentile so you can imagine. So do go for it but not just CAT. Yes, it will be costly but that is how it is yaar. If you do not​ wanna leave it on your luck. All exams, all slots is the key mahn. @@theviralfever7

      Give CMAT if you can crack JBIMS that would be superb. else go for CAT but not only CAT give all the exams CAT, XAT, NMAT, SNAP (all slots) if you do not wanna leave things to your luck. I have seen many people who have done well in just one of these exams and gotten through. So, do prepare for it and give all the exams and all slots. People have not gotten calls at 96 percentile in cat from some colleges of NCR yk. @@theviralfever7

    I had 1 year gap, 23 graduate and let me tell you, they asked me about the gap in most interviews. My takeaway is, they were more interested in as to why I didn’t go for a job directly after graduating from a tier 1 engineering college. My answer was I didn’t get the roles I was passionate about and decided to fast track into MBA which I planned initially. Probably seemed to work because I had converts from my best calls but I think it’s subjective and depends upon the mood of the interviewer. The REAL question is, does that gap affect your chances for placements because that’s what the ultimate aim for getting into any b-school is

  • @shubhamraj116
    @shubhamraj116 8 місяців тому +68

    It's illogical to say that work and prepare for CAT .All jobs are not the same ,some work for 8 hours some for more than 14 hours. So how can one prepare in this situation. It's not possible, and i think the interview panel will understand this.
    In my opinion, it is better to sit in the IIM Calcutta interview with a gap year rather than IIM Vizag with a job.
    I was working in the construction field, so I had 14 hours of work for 6 days, and i wanted a career switch.
    Not all jobs are same sir and you should understand that before making such videos , don't demotivate us.

    Well tbh, if we sum up total number of CAT aspirants (serious ones) and sum them over period of 3 years for seats at top 20 IIMs it wouldn't sum up, even serious aspirants fail, so this gap year philosophy seems very bogus, moreover how the hell IIM interviewers expect undergrad students to have job when there are such high unemployment rates, even par time jobs are hard to get and they are not even part time, internships too, hardly anyone gets it. This gap year philosophy is just a filtering tactic. Well tbh this too can be handled if reasons are explained.

      Selection rates in good master programmes are as low as any govt. exam. So, all one is left with is keep preparing, and doing something along with it, is not everyone's cup of tea.
      I know you never hesitate to show us harsh reality, but do we have any other options?

    Agar itna hi gap year se problems hai colleges ko toh CAT ka difficulty level itna high kyun jyada hai...And I have seen from 2022 onwards specially 2023 , the exam conducting faculty has increased the level of difficulty to the next level.Cat 2023 was really difficult and you can't give the exam without rigorous amount of preparation. If I compare the CAT 2023 paper with all other previous year CAT question papers then we can clearly see the transition of level of difficulty.

Yes definitely it is a desirable situation to have no gap but even if it is due to any reason up to one or two years are justified subject to justification

    Bhaiya♥️,I learnt a lot about mba etc by watching your videos but
    I lost hope in getting into good mba colleges after seeing this video..
    I have 3year gap,1 after 12th,1 in Engg,and one after Engg.. I'm a mechanical engineer passed out in 2023
    couldn't able to crack the CAT as decided to do mba in sep,prepared,gave CAT but failed miserably..last hope was MH MBA CET because there is no GDPI before admission but sadly slot 4 was very tough(CAT,XAT copied questions) so couldn't manage time and tried flukes as much as possible..Now preparing for CMAT(the last hope) but the good colleges who accept CMAT scores are very less in numbers..
    Now my plan is it I scored good marks in CMAT then good or else I will do job and side by side CAT preparation & the level of preparation is very good and I think I can crack CAT exam this year..
    So Will it be a good idea? Because if I give CAT and Omets this year,total gap years will be 4😢 but I will do job after CMAT exam till the next year before joining mba..
    Is there any chances of me to get into top B schools as condition of me is really pathetic right now.. majority of my friends, cousins are doing job except me..
    Is there any chance to see the light in the room of darkness?
    Please help🙏🏻

    I think the major problem here is the education system. They assess you on score basis and if you took a gap for preparation then you're doomed. Seriously the difficulty has changed from 2022 to 2023 significantly. I'm not gonna take a gap year anymore. Cause the system sucks here in India. How can they say that's simple as an arts student it took me time to understand quants. It's like either you're brilliant student and have good capturing ability or it's not for you.

      Set your priority and main goal first, either CAT+MBA or the Course+internship. Its great that you have already enrolled in something that's useful & upskilling yourself while continuing to prepare, but focus majority of your efforts towards CAT prep (as the difficulty & competition is increasing every year). The course & internship will surely help you a lot to justify the gap, and will also help in the future for jobs. If you believe in yourself, then give one more try, but along with doing something else (like part time job or the course/internship that you mentioned). Do not panic brother, prepare well and give it your best shot. Anything can happen, Be Positive.
