Mystory@Avinash Reddy Munagala: How I chose my course and prepared for my competitive exam
Mystory@Avinash Reddy Munagala
During my Class 12, I appeared for IIT entrance exam but I failed. So, I took admission in a normal college in Andhra Pradesh. There I explored what I should do after graduation. It was then that I came to know that I am not good at Science subjects and so I could not crack the exam for IIT admissions. But the good thing was that I came to know that I am good at managing things and I will be able to perform better in an MBA course rather than in MTech. Hence, I started my preparation for CAT.
This is my second attempt in CAT exam and I have secured 88.85% marks. I scored 84.5% in my first attempt. I took coaching at TIME which helped me a lot. There I used to write the online weekly tests as well as sectional tests daily.
But the mistake I did was that I neglected the Verbal and Reading Comprehension (VRC) section where I got 68.5% this year. So, my advice is that do not neglect any section and give equal priority to all the sections. When I gave the exam in 2015, my score in VRC was 77 and I scored 78 and 89 in Data Interpretation & Logical Reasoning (DILR) and Quantitative Aptitude (QA) respectively. However, in 2016 I scored 68, 93 and 93 in VRC, DILR and QA sections respectively. So, after going through my marks you must have observed that I have improved a lot in DILR and QA but not in VRC because I neglected that section and you should not do the same mistake.
