  • It might be surprising, but around 75% of the students who prepare for CAT are either scared of or are weak at Maths. Yet, these are the same students who do not get any guidance from teachers. Hopefully, with this video, I will be able to help a little and push some of you in the right direction.

      One more thing, can you please make a video about some kind of schedule or how much time to allocate to different subjects and how to approach studies now. As there are just a few months left and too much to cover due to starting late, it is all very overwhelming and confusing as to what to start and what to keep for later. It'll be very helpful.

      happy I could be of any help beta.. well, 6th standard is fine and good but more than the book, the way you work with it matters.. don't be theory oriented, don't try to mug up methods or formulae and don't try to divide questions into specific 'types'... that will make your job harder but only then can you improve maths.. otherwise.. book to tumne school me bhi use ki hi thi beta.. koi faayda hua tha.. nahi na? To is baar.. alag tarike se use karna us book ko..

    • @PerennialLearner
      @PerennialLearner  Рік тому +3

      thank you for the kind words bachhe.. now..
      beta ji.. the biggest mistake you can do while preparing for CAT is targeting a particular college. There are so many students I know who could have easily reached IIM K,L or I but in their greed for IIM A or FMS, slipped down heavily and are not even in a top 25 college today..
      CAT is a test that is best aced by those who know themselves and prepare realistically... those who aim blindly always make mistakes (because the pattern changes ever year) and pickup negative marks..
      Coming to preparation.. well, there is nothing new I have tell you for the time being.. there are 4 videos I have made (1 o QA, 1 on LR and 2 on VARC), watch them..and if you have any questions left even after that.. message me.. :)

      dekho mere bachhe.. in my 6 years as teacher I have seen countless 'smart' 'super intelligent' students perform poorly in this test.. while a lot of so called 'weak' students did well and sometimes extremely well..
      CAT is a marathon.. and only those who consistently put in the hard work do well in the end.. trust me.. 70% of those smart kids in your batch will not have the discipline or motivation or put in consistent hard work.. some will stop after 2 weeks, some after 2 months and then all will wake up in the month of October realising that CAT is too close and they have wasted too much of their time..
      If you can be different.. if you can just be among those who do not sleep or stop working hard after 2 months.. if you can be one of those who do not take any break.. most students will study for 2 weeks, then take a break of 2 weeks, then study again for 2 weeks and then take break again.. if you can be the consistent one, then you will do it.. trust me..

      you should not target any percentile kiddo... if you ask you to target 99 even though your maximum potential itself is 95, will you give up on the exam?
      Or if I ask you to target 90 even though your potential is 99, will you not score 99 and say - I will only score 90 because sir has asked me to?
      No, right?
      Then why do you want to target a score? Your job is to study and study well.. prepare and prepare well.. and then after a year of preparation you can see how much you get. That's it.

      Hello beta... well, why did you start with Modern Maths??? CAT gives very heavy weightage to simple questions.. and extremely low weightage to all the heavy mathematical topics like Geometry and Modern Maths.. so, to be honest, it makes no sense to start with that area which gets the lowest weightage in an exam..
      Only those who have already reached 99 percentile and are trying to push for 99.5 or 100 need modern maths.. nobody else..

    • @PerennialLearner
      @PerennialLearner  Рік тому +1

      it usually happens when students memorise methodologies to solve questions beta... and that's the problem with formulas or methodologies.. they give you an instant gratification, but fail to address the actual problem.. which is only solved when you work on your fundamentals (oral calculation, HCF/LCM, percentages and ratios) diligently... if you can't solve 80% of the questions from the mentioned topics orally, then you should not proceed further to any other topic in Quant.. that's it.. work on them, then move forward.. you will not face any problem..

      nope nope nope.. Arun Sharma is a very high level book that assumes you are already comfortable with Maths... it has almost no theory and all the formulae are given without any derivation because the book assumes that you will be able to derive them yourself..
      So, you shouldn't use Arun Sharma at all.. stick to Sarvesh Verma or Nishit Sinha.. that will be better..

I usually don't recommend them, however, because most students who think of using them are those who struggle with maths.. and I always feel that when something didn't work the last time, why would it work this time.. so, I ask students to try something different instead...
      But if you keep this tiny concern aside, those books are great to start with..

      yes, kid, you do...
      it doesn't matter how much you need to score.. those who reach good colleges don't ask me 'kitna laana hai'.. they study and see how far they can reach..
      if I tell you you need 98 but your potential is 99.9, will you not score it and limit yourself to 98???
      if I tell you you need 99 but your potential is 95, will you give up or screw your test in the greed for extra 4 percentile??
      So, don't ask this question.. the question is useless for all practical matters.. study and see how much you can improve, how far you can go.. that's it..

      mere bachhe.. what you have asked is a very generic question.. and I don't think I can say anything new on it because I have already talked for 40 minutes on this very question in my videos (QA+LRDI+VARC).. so, my suggestion will be that you just watch them and if there are any questions left after that which are specific to you as a person, then you can ask me here or on Telegram and I will happily talk to you..
      regarding your second question, yes, you can.. if you are sure that your basics are good... a lot of times students have this misconception as well..
      So, move to Arun Sharma but if you are not able to solve more than 20% questions on your own (without any kind of help of answer key) then it means your level is not there yet... and you should work with something else..

    • @PerennialLearner

      7 years is a long time kid... and your 12th score is not good either.. hmm...
      well, I won't say you don't have good chances.. but yes, if somebody else gets selected at a score of 91 in a college then you will need 95 to get into it... which only means that you should not expect to clear the cut-off by a thin margin and be selected..
      All it means is that you can consider the NC-OBC advantage gone (to compensate for the gap years) and expect your cut-offs to be on par with a general non-engineering student for all practical purposes.. (not that bad a thing to be honest)
      Also, you need excellent spoken and writing skills if you want to increase your chances.. otherwise, the 7 years will shine on your profile.. the best way to hide something is to have an impressive personality.. that's it..

      Only thing is - this process requires a lot of patience which is why 90% of the students don't follow it since they get bored.. but if you can be among those 10% who do this simple exercise for 30 days.. you will see that your calculation will have improved drastically..
      Once your calculation improves.. your basics will improve automatically.. just spend a lot of time solving percentages, ratios and averages.. that's it...

      Now, don't run after FMS either.. you will get a bank loan easily.. I have done my MBA on loan.. all my students have done theirs on loan.. and you don't give a damn about that loan 3 years after your MBA when you are making 1.2-1.5 lakhs per month..
      So.. first of all.. decide what you are going to do.. if it's CAT, stay open for all good colleges and do not target only FMS or ABC or other colleges that are blindly targeted by other people in the country.. if you think you can work like that.. message me, I will tell you how you should proceed..

My profile is GEF, Graduated in 2018 from Christ University in Bcom with 3.3/4 CGPA, 10th - 9.4 CGPA and 12th - 88.8%. The catch is I was doing CA before and I left it after multiple attempts so my work experience as such is only articleship in a big4. I am side by side pursuing my Company Secretary too. My dream since childhood was the holy trinity - ABC and I want to know do I have a chance? I can say my VARC is good (not the best) and I have seen a good upward trend in my LRDI which I enjoy thoroughly too. Please guide me here sir.

    • @PerennialLearner
      @PerennialLearner  2 роки тому +7

      hello kiddo.. well, see, everybody's dream is either ABC or FMS.. which is why the competition for these colleges is outrageous.. Having said that, can you reach there - for sure and you do have good chances as well because your acids are good, but at the same time you also have 3 years' drop which will give you a slight disadvantage in the interviews and this disadvantage will only increase with each passing year. My honest suggestion will be - either take a job or accept whatever good college you can crack this year.
      Also, pursuing CS side by side is not the best idea, primarily because these two tests are in two opposite directions. I am not sure how will be able to do justice to both simultaneously. Mostly you will be compromising on both. To target ABC, you need 98%ile at least, given the disadvantage of year gap of 4 years (till CAT 2022, it will be 4 years), maybe even 99.. that is not an easy task and you can't achieve that by being good at something.. you will have to be excellent at all things.. (QA, LRDI and Verbal)
      If you want to pursue both side by side (for reasons of safety), it will be better if you reduce your target and make it more realistic. For CAT, methods of preparation and exam strategy change depending on what score you are targeting, so this is extremely crucial. You can't prepare keeping 99 in mind when you don't have time to put in that much efforts.. the result will be 80.. but if you know that your target is 95.. you can achieve it by selectively mastering certain topics and leaving others..

      namaste beta.. well.. Elite's Grid is good, undoubtedly.. All the teachers there are passionate people interested in students' development and progress. Unfortunately, I have no idea about Edushastra. So, I can't offer my opinion on that. I hope it helps.

      @@Aayushkumar2 bachhe.. I don't recommend students any one particular institute to join because a institute that is good for me might not be good for you. Har student ki need alag hoti hai beta.. I can only say that among the online institutes, Elite's Grid and Takshzilla are the ones I like the most. You can evaluate them and if you feel they offer what you need, then make a decision. But you have to evaluate them yourself considering your weak and strong areas.

      Thank you sir I’ll go for Ashu Jain book first because my base is really weak at quant section and I’m so scared of,
      I can’t even decide wether I should go for CAT or NON-CAT exams,It’s so confusing for me.
      I don’t have even working experience as right now I’m pursuing English honours and this is last year.
      Would you please guide me sir ? :((

    Sir I'm very serious become I'm very very weak in math but not in calculation lekin Math weak hai kaise crack karun? Motivate mat kariyega sir... plz fact bataiyega data bataiyega

      What you are saying is impossible mere bachhe.. I have never ever come across a single student in my life who was good with calculations but struggled with the rest of Maths (At least Arithmetic and Algebra)..
      Either you are overestimating your ability in calculation... or you are a first.. in which case, I would like to talk to you on Telegram... because it might teach me something..

    Sir I got 52% in 10th and 75% in 12th and I am student of first year bba and i start preparing for cat can I have any chance for IIM old or new , baby what percentage I require for IIM

    • @PerennialLearner
      @PerennialLearner  5 місяців тому

      well, beta, you can surely reach an IIM.. not old though, but some new and baby IIMs are possible for sure.. but you will have to work hard, develop your communication skills a lot and score at least 95 percentile in CAT.
      That's it.. do well mere bachhe.. and happy new year.. :)

    Hello sir,
    My profile is
    10th-84.2%
    12th-83.4%
    Bsc-final year
    Category-Sc
    What percentile should I score to get into ABC ?

    • @PerennialLearner
      @PerennialLearner  10 місяців тому +1

      I never answer this question beta.. you score what you can.. if your maximum potential is 99, you score it even you can get into ABC with 97, you still score 99 because you should fulfil your potential..
      but if your maximum potential is 95, you score that.. even if it won't get you into ABC, you still score 95 and don't chase 97 or 98 blindly.. and you be happy with KLI or MDI... because in a blind hunt for ABC you might lose KLI as well..
