Shiksha Ask & Answer

Dear Trushita,
Yes you can do but it is not suggested.
Case 1 - If you are doing your B.Com from a regular mode then it is advisable that don't go for CA. Doing this, you can create excessive pressure on yourself. Neither you can do CA nor B.Com. For CA, you need to clear CPT test after that IPCC (1-2) internships, final which requires a lit amount of time and dedication. So, CA and B.Com simultaneously is not advisable.
Case 2 - If you are pursuing B.Com from correspondence mode, then you can surely opt for CA. Provided you have to divide your time accordingly.
Hope this helps.

Its better to take 1-2 years of job experience before CAT. Prior job experience will help you too get the basics of work culture in the corporate world. There is no as such right time for starting CAT preparation. Earliest you join, better it is. Along with a good coaching institute do join a good test series to get your performance evaluated on regular basis. Dedicate hard work with consistent performance will definitely help you to crack CAT and other MBA entrance exams.

Hello,
If you want MBA for your post-graduation degree in India, you should ideally have to sit for national level entrance. Having stated that you have not applied for CAT, you can't apply for most of the cream colleges in India, including all IIMs, MDI, and FMS etc.
If you can wait and have to get admitted in the same year, you can check for other exams, like IIFT, XAT, NMAT, CMAT etc. for good colleges.

Hello,
As far as academics is concerned, yes, you have a good record. Though +2 remains some concern as the same is below 80% but overall you will have a good score as in graduation 8.8 is definitely above cream average.
Rest there are numbers of factors that play for the total composite score. So, all the best, make your best for written and face to face evaluations.
All the best

Hello,
In the current scenario you have two options that can be considered
a- Start a job post your current degree
b- Join a correspondence/light course and side by side prepare for MBA entrance.
Also here I would like to mention the fact that don't rely only on CAT consider other national level entrances like NMAT, CMAT, IIFT etc. and try to hit them as well.
You can option for a computer course and in parallel try to prepare for exams. All the best :)

Hi,
You have no option to calculate your percentile score because percentile score is depend on -
1)Total no of candidate can appearing in the exam .
2)Number of candidates who have scored less marks than you.
Both are unknown to you so you have not calculate it. Because this information is hidden to candidate.
If you collect above two dates, then you can easily calculate your percentile.

Hi Aditya, Just try giving 1 or 2 mocks and gauge where you stand right now and what areas need improvement. Then go ahead and work on those areas and simultaneously give mocks to evaluate your performance in those weak areas. Mocks are very important and should be an essential part of your preparation.

For PGPM program, you need to have atleast 24 months of work experience till March 31, 2018, only then you can apply for this course. Since you don't have any work experience you can apply for PGDM program at Great Lakes.
