Today was the big day again, i.e. big for nearly two lakh students who took the CAT today. I had my centre at Guru Nanak College in Sion East. Never heard of that place but was confident of getting there. Left early and was there by 9.15am itself to find a large number of students already there, some studying, others chit chatting. My class was on the fourth floor and with no lifts that meant a lot of climbing. Had my seat on the very last bench which turned out to be dusty and was very very irritating. The folks […]
[…]people in the parish who don’t know the seating capacity of a pew. Little known facts about the Catholic Church in Las Vegas: There are more churches in Las Vegas than casinos. During Sunday services at the offertory, some worshippers contribute casino chips as opposed to cash. Some are sharing their winnings – some are hoping to win. Since they get chips from so many different casinos, and they are worth money, the Catholic churches are required to send all the chips into the diocese for sorting. Once sorted into the respective casino chips, one junior priest takes the chips […]

Sunday was the last of the AIMCATs and I was a bit apprehensive about the same. The AIMCAT was “decent” but as usual I missed the cutoff in Quant by a mark. Managed an 89.8 percentile which is definitely better than last week’s. Went for the Sunday evening mass. Thankfully it was dragged. Monday and Wednesday was at my friends place studing all day while on Tuesday. I’ve got three days left for the exam. Am tensed by am also not letting it effect me too much. Gave a paper yesterday (Wednesday) and the results were a lot better. It’s […]
[…]still struggling to get the strategy correct. I will compliment T.I.M.E. for the excellent mock CATs that they have been throwing at us. This time they went one step further. The AIMCAT was organized at only two centers in Mumbai. Mine was at Ambedkar College, Wadala. Found the place on Google Earth so riding out there was a breeze. Got there to find the college in a real bad state. The benches were covered with dust, probably because of the Diwali Vacations 😕 Then came the exam. 75 questions, 150 marks in 150 minutes. Didn’t clear a single cut-off. What […]
[…]patiently and I hope I get into the other places I applied. My tentative scores as per TIME indicate me not clearing any cut-off, not to mention my overall score being horrible. I have a dirty feeling that this time my percentile will be lower than my past two, and then I hadn’t even bothered studing! Have few more individual tests left. These shall receive my full attention. And the next two days see me completing the […]
It was inevitable. My results and their servers crashing. I was able to get my result after a few hours of trying and several refreshes. Anyway managed a measely 82.94 which is less than my last two attempts when I hadn’t studied :(( I need some TLC. For those interested, try getting your result […]
