![Take these tips and brave the CAT
BANGALORE: The CAT anxiety is palpable among those keyed up to take the test this year,
starting Wednesday. The Common§ Admission Test is one of the toughest entrance exams for
management admissions in the country.
CAT aspirants are concerned about not having satisfactorily `covered' the course. But what experts
advise is -- don't get bogged down by pressure. Instead, use it constructively to improve
performance.
Experts also say that it's smart thinking that helps crack the CAT. For instance, Ajit Phadnis, an
IIMB alumnus, an academic consultant with Career Launcher Pvt Ltd, says that if a student gets
stuck in a question that appears to need rigorous calculations, then "the candidate is probably not
dealing with it `smartly' or that the smarter decision may be to simply leave it and move ahead.
Many a time, rigorous calculations can be made simple by use of common sense approximations".
The student should keep a contingency plan in place, adds Ajit. "I would suggest a plan of 30-35
minutes for each of the three sections and answer whatever you can. The rest of the time can be
effectively used to improve sections which need it," he says.
Whether a student makes it to the IIMs or not, he or she will surely be a better reader of reports,
better creator and interpreter of graphs and quicker analyst, he adds on, saying, "In short, a better
professional."
Experts have some common advice: "stay cool" on the D-day while writing the exam and do not
study anything new.
