The Turning Point: From 89.23 to 98.93 Percentile
Her first CAT attempt in 2022 gave her an 89.23 percentile. It was a decent score, but did not fulfill her dream of IIM target. She prepared thoroughly. She took numerous mocks. But exam-day anxiety impacted her performance. This resulted in unsatisfactory scores. She decided to reattempt CAT in 2023 to achieve her target. Her previous preparation gave her a strong foundation. So she focused on mental preparation this time. She treated CAT as just another exam instead of the final goal. She worked on improving her weak spot and gave her best in the exam.
