Here are some common myths about clearing the CAT exam: Myth 1: Only engineers can crack CAT. Reality: Candidates from diverse educational backgrounds (engineering, commerce, arts, etc.) clear CAT. Myth 2: You need to be a math genius. Reality: CAT tests logical reasoning, verbal ability, and data interpretation, not just math. Myth 3: Coaching is mandatory. Reality: Self-study and online resources can be sufficient; coaching is optional. Myth 4: CAT requires extensive knowledge. Reality: CAT tests concepts, not vast knowledge; focus on fundamentals. Myth 5: Only full-time preparation yields success. Reality: Working professionals and part-time preparers can also crack CAT. Myth 6: CAT is only for IIMs. Reality: 100+ institutions accept CAT scores. Myth 7: High academic scores guarantee CAT success. Reality: CAT scores don't correlate directly with academic performance. Myth 8: You must attempt all questions. Reality: Strategic time management and question selection are crucial. Myth 9: CAT is an intelligence test. Reality: CAT assesses problem-solving skills, logical thinking, and decision-making. Myth 10: One attempt is enough. Reality: Multiple attempts are common; learning from mistakes is key. By dispelling these myths, you'll better understand the CAT exam and prepare effectively. Would you like information on: 1. CAT exam syllabus and pattern? 2. Study materials and resources? 3. Time management techniques? 4. Mock test strategies? 5. CAT exam results and selection process? read less

I am graduating this year. Also, I've appeared for CAT 2018. I scored 85.5 percentile (90+ percentile both in VA/RC and DI/LR but only 33 percentile in QA). I'll appear this year too. What should be my preparation strategy for QA? Also, my academic background isn't impressive. I am first division though, maintaining 65% right since class 12th, had 92% in 10th class. I'm pursuing a BA in polity, geo and eco. What are the skills I should work on to build a good MBA profile? Thanks in anticipation.
Forget about profile. Just try getting as high a percentile as possible in CAT. Written +GD/PI/WAT form the major chunk of the selection process in any top b school.

I am in the 2nd year of my Chemical engineering studies. I scored in 87% in the 10th std, but my 12th score is below 50%. So, would I be able to fulfil the CAT exam's eligibility criteria?
There are two things over here - You are eligible to write the exam as it is the Common Aptitude Test, not just for IIMs. Nobody can stop you from giving the exam. You will not get a call from any IIMs...
