Same as above

So i scored 96 percentile, couldve scored 99 if it werent for panic in quants, i got 70.70 percentile in QA so 96 percentile, 98 eng 96 dilr 70.70 QA
Prepared for 6 months
Non engineer general male
76/76/76 in 10th 12th and Bcom
Graduated in 2024 and have one year business experience
I gave excellent interview in MDI but could not convert,
Now I’m starting to understand the uncertainties of CAT, ive seen people with 99+ not convert any colleges despite great interviews

Given my profile even if i convert a good bschool without workex im not sure I’ll be able to get good placements easily, and with uncertainty of war and emergence of artificial intelligence systems I think 30 lakh investment might be slightly riskier, not saying its not worth it but it isnt same as before
So i have decided to pivot into IBPS PO or SBI PO and then getting a job for a few years after that i wanna study for RBI Grade B and get to a stable position in life

Can anyone provide insights on this?
And resources and also best coaching
Any advice is appreciated

Suggest me process for doing this
I scored 96 percentile in CAT and I don't wanna pursue it any further
I'm comfortable with most of the questions
And also financially well off to afford coaching and mocks

What is the route to clear it in the very first attempt as I have prior experience in CAT 2025
I would've scored 99 percentile but panicked at quants so it dragged some percentile down

There's 4 months left and I'm a drop student so I can study all day everyday, I don't have any issues of burnout
So guys can anyone suggest me the right route to tackle this exam and clear it in very first attempt
General category student

I prepared for cat for 6 months with daily 5 hours.
Scored 96 percentile but couldn't convert any college
I have 96/97/70 in Varc dilr and QA
I would've scored 99 if I didn't mess up QA
IBPS PO is in 4 months from now
If I prepare now will it be possible to crack IBPS and SBI po?
I have a 7/7/7 profile so getting top MBA colleges is real difficult, already graduated in 2024 and have one year business experience, apart from that no workex

What do you guys suggest me to do?
I'm 22 and struck between this decision of getting a job and preparing for cat again or giving IBPS po and SBI po

I am beyod disgusted by how a few parents in India are, These people love you only until you do not have your own opinion, when you start to think for yourself they are infuriated

Their stupid arguments include how they gave an amazing life to you, duh? you choose to have kids, it was your personal choice to bring children into the world without conset and you guilt trip kids because of your own decision? who the f else was supposed to take care of the life you brought into this world if not you? if you cant feed dont breed

A have a brother who just passed his 10th boards and all his life he has been very obedient and everyone loved him, mind you i come from a line of a very orthodox family who follow religion and caste and take pride in it because they have nothing else to show for.

He started asking questions about a few traditions because he is old enough to understand things now but guess what happened when he questioned some of the things you are expected to shut the f up and follow?

they asked him to pack his bags and leave their home just because he questioned their belief, what good can come out of a society where people hold their beliefs closer than their children?

India will never be a developed country as long as uneducated mind tries to control the educated one, he wants to understand the origin of the world and he is not sure if god exists or not! just because of this in the name of god and for the sake of god they are ready to abandon their kids.

My entire family is veg but i consume eggs at my house to complete my protien requirements, the food at my house is full of carbs and that is the norm in our culture according to them but lately i have had weakness and i am underweight so docotors had advised me to eat whole eggs, i have not been consuming eggs from childhood so even for me it is difficult eat, i do it with the health concern and i have enough knowledge about nutirition to understand whats best for me, i have done a few courses and some research regarding nutrition so i know whats best for my body

This person comes to my house, notices i have eggs on the refirgerator and insults my father, refuses to even drink a drop of water and leaves us because it is impure!

will god be bothered by me eating eggs to keep myself healthy?

I have never been more hateful of my own kind

Hot take (but not really):

“Marks don’t matter” is the biggest cope Indian teens tell themselves.

Yes, studies ≠ success.
Yes, skills matter more in the long run.

But acting like academics are useless is just setting yourself up for a silent L.

In India, a degree is not a flex. It’s a default requirement. Like… basic character unlock.

And your past academics? They don’t scream. They filter.

You won’t even realise which doors closed because of a 7/7/7 or worse.
Top B-schools? Shortlist gone.
Consulting/finance roles? Resume filtered before HR even blinks.

You don’t fail loudly. You fail invisibly.

And that’s way worse.

Speaking from experience — I thought “chalta hai, I’ll fix it later”.
Now “later” is here and it’s like:
Congrats bro… but also, not eligible 💀

Also can we stop worshipping billionaire dropouts?

People quote Bill Gates like he rage-quit college and became rich overnight.

He was at Harvard University, had insane access, connections, and dropped out when things were already working.

That’s not “follow your passion”. That’s playing life on easy mode.

For every one such story, there are thousands who tried the same and just… vanished.

It’s literally Survivorship Bias you only see winners, so you think the path works.

Reality check:

Skills will help you grow.
But academics decide whether you even get a seat at the table.

You don’t have to love studying.
But if it’s unavoidable, at least don’t throw it.

Because future you will pay for present you vibe-based decisions 💀
