From Self Doubts, Uncertainity to IIM Kozhikode Conversion
Ankita came from a botany background and was quite unfamiliar with the preparation plan of the CAT exam. She had not grown up dreaming of MBA applications, but the idea of the CAT examination came to her gradually, then all at once. Started her journey around mid-May when she really wanted to start preparing for this exam. Most serious aspirants start early for the exam, and she knew about it, but she was not the type to let a calendar decide what she was capable of.
In the beginning, she faced trouble in understanding the Quant formulas naturally, LRDI sets took more time to cover, and the VARC section demanded more discipline towards the CAT exam. For her, the problem in the beginning was not the syllabus but consistency. When she completed any mock, it didn’t reflect the effective scores, whatever was planned by her, and this converted into a phase of self-doubt, which later resulted in her feeling like she started her preparation late.
But over time, everything shifted, where she stopped chasing her scores and started understanding the CAT exam properly. This is what works as a complete turning point in her CAT exam preparation journey. Let’s discuss how iQuanta became the integral part of the preparation.
How iQuanta Became a Turning Point in Her CAT Preparation
iQuanta later became a part of her journey, where, with the help of classes, she cleared her concepts. Application-focused learning and rigorous preparation are things that really helped her in the CAT exam. And finally, she converted to IIM Kozhikode.
