MBA Entrance Exam

I prepared for CAT17 and attended classes at Alchemist. It does not currently have a branch in Noida however, they have various facilities which may be helpful to you in terms of time management so you could consider it. Alchemist follows a modular approach which makes it possible to attend classes according to your convenience. As there is no fixed batch you can attend modules repeatedly for the topics you need to work on. I think this could help you if you live far away and are unable to attend class on certain days or at a certain time. I also have to manage my college work alongside CAT coaching so I understand how travelling can take up a lot of time and Alchemists flexibility has been very helpful in that regard. Additionally, they have a study zone for students where you can study all day, even as classes aren't on. So, if you are worried about managing extra work or finding enough time to study you can easily make use of the facility and it should help you.

As you must know any national level exam like CAT requires a preparation par excellence to get you into your dream college. And it requires us make decisions from the very beginning. This is where smartness comes into play. I will break down the answer into multiple phases right from the beginning to the end. Depending upon your capabilities and how much time you will be able devote on your per day basis, you can decide whether you need a coaching or do it by yourself. There might be pros and cons to both the sides. Don't run much. Look at your own academic career, analyse it. See at what point of time in your life you had the need of your tutor. Compare it with your current scenario like what it is you are aiming for and is it possible for you to get there without a continuous support from a mentor. This has to be done by you. With sheer honesty. You will come up with your answer. Now once decided, you can opt for self study or classes. Classes again create a dilemma like which one to choose and what should be the medium. Online or Offline. Online / Offline : Now this is where you need to get out of your comfort zone. You might be well acquainted with offline classes. But just think, is it okay to go for offline classes just because you have been accustomed to it, or won't it be better to go for something that promises more and is more aligned with your goal? If you are a working professional then have a look at your routine/shifts and then decide which one benefits you the most. Learning on the weekend offline or throughout the week online. If you are still studying then see how you can do manage with your daily routine. But yes. GET OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE. CAT requires this much. Which one to choose : DON'T run after the names in the market (I am not defaming anyone). Instead look for the place which meets your capabilities. For instance, everyone has their own grasping power. If a person will go for a coaching that is in a hassle to complete its course only then, please DON'T GO FOR IT. Instead chose a place which looks for clearing doubt of each and everyone before moving to the next topic. If you are really good at learning new things in first go then good for you and if you are not then even better. So, in simple words look out for a place where you personal care is guaranteed.

I am sharing someone else experience. I am quoting him. I graduated now from IIM B. I prepared for CAT while I was working. I used to leave from home by 9.30 - 10 times in morning and be back in home by 9 - 10 after dinner from work. Some days, I had to stay in office late. My work comes under the category of hectic ( mentally, not physically ). This is what I did for the written CAT exam. Spend one hour every day in the morning, going through the chapters (Apti, DI, LR). I had materials, and I went chapter by chapter some day and random questions some day. Ensured I solved 20 problems in the beginning and as I progressed the speed increased tremendously. In office, open a browser tab and go to Arts & Letters Daily. Ensured I read three articles each day before I leave office. I'm generally curious, so I would read some random things without any background. Helped a lot in RC. The Hindu, Business standard in browser tab in office. Read in between meetings, when I was distracted etc. But, utilize time in office. Along with wordweb. Everyday, walk for 20 minutes or so in the night leisurely and recite to myself
all multiplication tables ( 1 to 20 )
Squares of numbers, cubes of numbers
Calculate % components for 1/2, 1/3. 1/15
Take 5 random numbers and compute their squares and cubes ( short cut ways )
I know the set of people who are preparing for CAT we especially had a guy who is very motivated and he would provide us the problems that are challenging & we would spend time discussing quickly. Mostly casual chat types. In our office, it was appreciated to prepare for exams and hence this was easy. Weekends, I gave one mock test, either from home or test center. I would try to solve the problem after the exams ( the ones I was not able to find quick solutions for ) & see if there are options. This would be complete in the weekend itself. Overall, CAT is about being in touch with the basics. You can solve the paper if you are given twice the time. It is all about speed and accuracy. These will not come unless you are in regular touch. Allot small amounts of time every day and you will surely crack it. All the best for your CAT.

I would suggest ALCHEMIST, because, here; they AIMAT personal attention and talent development, by helping you introspect rather than giving you tailor made answers that's what exactly is aptitude training all about. Catering to the needs of every student as everybody has got his/her own unique problems, they can be big or small for others; so, that way student finds it easier to acclimatise in such a terrific competitive atmosphere. The Alchemist collegeworks like a study forum where the students themselves shatter the doubts of their fellow friends in their area of expertise and wherever the need be they involve the faculty members of their respective fields.
