“Don’t wish for it, work for it.”
If you are planning to sit for CAT this year, remember that
you are not alone. Many people who are successful
professionals today have been in your shoes.

Here are 5 things you should never do if you want to
secure your future and be successful in CAT exam:
Don’t do that.
2
This way your progress will remain frozen, leaving you in
a bad position with no means to move forward.
3
You have the knowledge and all you need is more
practice to perform better.
So, overcome your fears and channel all your energy into
learning and enriching your skills and knowledge.
4
3. Stay motivated and never be a quitter
5
So, give yourself that time and concentrate 100% when
trying to solve and understand each problematic
question.
6
Ensure that you have planned ahead for the big day and
don’t deviate from your study goals one bit.
Time is one thing you cannot turn back. Once it’s gone,
you cannot go back and start studying again.
7
There is nothing sadder than when you have all the
knowledge and skills but no time to perfect them. Don’t
miss out on the opportunity to increase your CAT score
and achieve your dreams.

5. Keep busy and don’t drop a year
The one thing you should ensure is that you don’t quit
your job and keep working or participating in activities
side by side while you are preparing for the CAT’18.
Trust us; it’s not a big deal. You can manage to do both
quite easily if you stick to a well thought-out schedule
and manage your priorities. It’s always good to not sit
idle and keep busy while waiting to sit for the next CAT
exam.
You must be wondering
what kind of work you can
get into at this time. While
we wouldn’t recommend a
permanent job, any work
that is limited to the
weekends is the best fit.
E.g. work in an NGO.

You can also start an Internship with a registered
company, do some content marketing (SEO /SMO) or
help out as a research assistant. All of these activities
will prove to be very beneficial and will help you in the
long run.
However, if you don’t have a job or cannot do any of the
above activities, why not work on that Startup idea of
yours. Or follow your heart and engage in a hobby
instead.
This way, you can pursue your passion and with proper
presentation and competition certificates, you can prove
what an asset you really are.
Remember, it’s infinitely better to do something than
nothing at all.
Whenever you feel low or feel like you can’t do
something, remember these mantras:
Believe you can and you’re halfway there!
Don't pick at your faults, instead find a remedy!

you were better.” – Jim Rohn
