I am very nervous what should I do? Already I took 1 year gap for MBA preparation and not got good percentile in cat 17.

CAT requires a lot of patience. You should not be nervous. You might learnt a lot during your last year of preperation and now you know your weaknesses and strenght. Improvise and start again.

You should prefer taking a job if you get sufficiet time for preparation for CAT. That will have an advantage for your final selection in a good B School.

All the best!

Hi Siddhant,

Thr first thing you should do right away is stop getting nervous. CAT is neither the first option nor the last. If you are worried about the one year gap, I would suggest you should not because there are various State-level entrance exams still left to be conducted which can allow to study management from well-established B-schools. Some of the exams are TS ICET , AP ICET , Odisha JEE MBA , UPSEE MBA , IPMAT by IIM Indore , etc.

To know more about these exam like dates of application form, eligibility criteria, and the selection process for the year 2018, please visit the links given below:

IPMAT

And even if you’re not able to crack any of these exams, don’t forget that it’s just the beginning of your life. There is a plethora of options available to make a career.
