I did a South Africa...CAT Scores are Great..
As usual I flunked @ the end.Tripped and fell on my face in the home stretch.Ended up a chocker chasing a low target.I can eloquently wax my failure in a thousand different ways.But it all means only one thing.I am a LOSER!! :-)...
Here is a guy who attempted CAT last year without any preparation and callously casual attitude and managed to score a decent 88 percentile(Not too decent for many of you.For my level it was decent).This year he puts up one year of hard work and thousands of rupees in investment and ends up getting the same percentile.Sounds absolutely hilarious is'nt it.Thats my story.Let me try and Analyzing this failure with a cool head..
1) Either I am not made for such competitive exams:
This is typical bad loser's line right.But maybe I am right.If you ask a 51/2 foot 70 kg guy to face a sumo wrestler and he loses.He should not feel bad right.But that is not possible because people who are close my caliber in IQ have made it thro before
2) The exam was too tough:
Cat is after all a competitive exams which gives ranking to people.All the freaking 2.5 lakh people wrote the same exam.So if it was tough it was tough for everyone.So thats cant be a reason too.
3) Not enough preparation:
Can't be the case.Because I had been attending regular classed 6 hours a week.from feb 2007.After that I had written all mock cats religiously and solved them all meticulously.But no amount of preparation is enough.I could have done more I guess
4) Exam Tension on the the D Day:
I have never got tensed for any exam.Maybe that was the real reason.Lack of seriousness.Very much possible.
Summing all this up and after deep introspection I am able to zero in on the chinks that lead to my defeat.
1)Lack of focus: Though I spent enuf time solving mock cats my scores din look like improving.I did not spend time on areas/activities that were required.So Although I should have noticed that my efforts were not doing anything to improving ever lowering scores in mock cats, I did not!!!Just thought things will get ironed out themselves.But they just din!!!
2)Poor Quantitative skill: Did not focus on improving speed and accuracy in calculation involving number.The basement was weak so however well I build the building it is bound to fall flat.It did happen.
3)Preparing too much: In some ways I think the intense half cooked preparation only did me in.Either I should have gone all the way(from basics) else should have gone with a open approach.Rethinking now , in many scenarios I found myself trying to fit the problems given into the frameworks I had learnt, in the process of trying to solve them.That should have been the last option.I should have applied common sense to most questions and I would have done much better.In an objective type questions answers and only answers count.Methods don't.
So if someone who is planning to appear for CAT next year is reading this, I have only one line for you.Either go all out or just get out.
